SHORT COURSES These courses are open to all practising hypnotherapists who may wish to extend their skill base or update their knowledge.

PRACTITIONER LEVEL TRAINING

PART 1

The practitioner level training is offered as an intensive course which equates, in study hours, to a university year. It is designed however, to run over a 5 month period beginning with a two week residential, practical training element.

Since hypnotherapy is, fundamentally, a hands-on profession, the value of practical training cannot be overstated and the two week residential part of the course is an essential component of the training and students must attend if they wish to qualify.

During this time, students undergo ‘immersion training’, learning, in a fully supervised and supportive environment, the practical application of hypnosis. Many undergo life changing self development during this period of time.

The aim is for students to learn and expand their understanding of, and competence in, the utilisation of hypnosis in a therapeutic setting.
During the first week, participants will be involved in learning induction and deepening procedures and management of the hypnotic state, including suggestion therapy and termination of the hypnosis. Each student will also have the opportunity to experience a session of hypnoanalysis facilitated by Kate.

The second week will introduce students to the practice of hypnoanalysis, the effective management of abreaction and past life regression.
Training is carried out by fully experienced tutors, supplemented by specialist lecturers and visiting, practising hypnotherapists.
The remainder of the course is carried out on a distance learning basis with extensive feedback being provided as students’ progress.

 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 

PART 2

During the four weeks following Part 1, students are required to carry out eight case studies, utilising suggestion therapy, for which they are covered by the school's insurance. These case studies are submitted at the end of this period for assessment and extensive feedback provided.

In order to carry out these case studies, students will be required to enlist volunteers, research the various presenting complaints (all notes provided) and recommend, with additional guidance where necessary, approaches to treatment.
Student compiled reports on the implementation of the hypnotic techniques and management of the hypnotic state, from initial consultation to termination and post session reaction, will be the bases for assessment.

PART 3

Toward the end of Part 2, an open book exam paper will be issued, designed in such a way as to ensure that course participants have read and fully understood not only the coursework and the associated support information, but also its implications.

PART 4

On successful completion of the course, students can apply for membership of the National Society of Professional Hypnotherapists. On acceptance they will be allocated a mentor who will be available for advice and support during the first six months of their practice.

There will always however, be experienced hypnotherapists to call on, whenever required, through the NSPH hotline.

Postgraduate LEVEL TRAINING

Two weekends per annum will be provided by the School, supplemented by further PG training opportunities in Yorkshire, for the support of existing Members of the NSPH.

Recent graduates and individuals who may be returning to practise after a period of absence are encouraged to consider the additional opportunity these weekends provide for updating and/or refreshing skills.

There is no formal requirement to attend, but the NSPH Code of Conduct recommends that all practising Members undertake some form of Continuing Professional Development and attendance at these weekends is certificated and contributes toward this obligation.

The weekends also provide the opportunity for practising therapists to undergo some therapeutic experience themselves, which many find assists in the maintenance of their own overall mental, physical and emotional balance.
