Hypnotherapy Diploma

Diploma in Cognitive-Behavioural Hypnotherapy

“This course can’t be improved; Donald, you are pure perfection.  I loved it! Thank you.”
(Itai,  London)

Who should attend?

The diploma is designed to provide complete beginners to the subject with a highly accredited qualification that will enable them to set up in practice as professional hypnotherapist. This course is also popular with psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, NLP practitioners and life-coaches looking to add hypnotherapy to their existing skills.  See our certificate course page for information on the first, foundational, stage of this accredited training programme.

Students are not required to have any previous experience or training in therapy.  In fact, our students come from a wide variety of backgrounds and go on to be successful hypnotherapists in private practice. Have a look at these websites for some examples;

Course Content & Syllabus

Our own proprietary system of cognitive-behavioural hypnotherapy is called Hypno-CBT^® and we consider it to represent the future of evidence-based practice in the field of hypnotic psychotherapy. Cognitive-behavioural hypnotherapy (CBH) is a popular topic of research in current scientific journals in the field of hypnotherapy.

Training focuses on practical face-to-face classroom exercises and group learning with rigorous online assessment following completion of the classroom training. Stage one focuses on the core skills of a hypnotherapist whereas stage 2 deals with behavioural psychology and interventions in hypnotherapy and stage 3 addresses cognitive concepts and techniques. The whole training provides a thorough grounding in modern cognitive-behavioural hypnotherapy.

Attendance and Course Dates

The Diploma training is divided into the following three stages, each of which is repeated several times a year. They can be taken close together or spread over up to 18 months, giving you complete flexibility when planning your training. Each stage consists of seven days of classroom training, a total of 168 hours over 21 days. Classes run from 10.15am to 6.00pm each day.
