Are you a Trainee / Qualified and Registered Psychotherapist,
Counsellor or Coach?
Are you interested in what the psychotherapeutic application of hypnosis really is?
Do you want to learn how to ethically and congruently offer your clients the benefits of clinical hypnosis within your existing practice?
Many Psychotherapists and Counsellors are wary of making the most of their client’s ability to draw on their own deeper inner process that occurs in naturally occurring states of altered awareness and enhanced relaxation. This caution is understandable given how showmen and some “hypnotists” have misrepresented the use of hypnosis with authoritarian misapplications that are directly in conflict with the therapeutic endeavor. However, the developed psychotherapist or counsellor’s ability to recognise and enhance a client’s use of their changing states of consciousness and emotion can be central to the client’s beneficial process.
- Find out what the psychotherapeutic application of clinical “hypnosis” really is
- Add the essential knowledge and skills in the use of client-lead hypnosis to enhance your client’s innate healing and creative resources
- Learn how to ethically and congruently integrate these natural client strengths into your existing practice

Policies and Procedures
Teaching & Learning
Course Aims
In a safe, creative and client-centered approach we will help demystify this ancient and most natural of healing applications so that you can seamlessly and ethically bring this dimension to your existing or developing practice.
- Learn how “hypnosis” is not done to a person, but empowers them to have greater autonomous options in using the natural functions of the human mind
- Discover how your practice already probably engages the client in altered states of awareness that can be validated and enhanced for deeper, safer, more creative process
- Release your skills to a greater scope of possibility in helping your client activate their own natural healing resources to recover and grow
- Achieve competencies in more naturalistic facilitation of the client working through trauma, anxiety, depression and low self-esteem
- Utilise altered state so that the client can harness internally motivated changes in self-defeating behaviours that are not subject to change through analysis alone
