What is hypnotherapy?
Hypnosis is a state of altered awareness during which our subconscious mind is more open and receptive to suggestions that are given.
We drift in and out of different levels of awareness many times each day, absorbing information on a subliminal level as well as a conscious one.
A hypnotherapist will work with a client’s imagination to help them to achieve their goals. Such as overcoming habits and phobias, or losing weight.
The Practitioner Diploma in Hypnotherapy course provides every student with comprehensive knowledge and professional practical training.
You will meet all kinds of people from all walks of life and no two cases will be exactly the same.
Can anyone be hypnotised? All hypnosis is in essence, self-hypnosis, and few people are incapable of being hypnotised. Therefore, most people can benefit in some way from hypnosis provided they are guided by an experienced individual who understands the way in which the subconscious mind functions. A thorough understanding of the developing mind and therapeutic approaches is essential for hypnotherapists, as dealing with personal problems is an great responsibility. Popular portrayals of hypnosis, as well as stage hypnosis as a form of entertainment, may lead you to imagine swinging watches, spinning spirals and onstage antics when you think of ‘hypnosis’. But the therapeutic application of hypnosis – hypnotherapy – is considerably different from these preconceptions. Clinical hypnotherapy training is also located within different ‘schools of thought’. Some are humanistic, some psychodynamic, some cognitive, and so on. We encourage an ‘eclectic’ or ‘integrative’ style of thinking. This means taking what is best about all the different approaches and applying whatever is best for each individual client. It isn’t necessary to have experienced clinical hypnotherapy before training to be a clinical hypnotherapist. You will experience trance on the first weekend!
You need absolutely no prior knowledge in how to induce trance or practice as a therapist, we teach you everything! Setting up in practice, thinking ahead to the end of the course, you will have all you need to set up as a professional clinical hypnotherapist. This is an exciting time and you could go fulltime or part-time.
It is important though consider the business side of things, which is why we teach you how to set up and market your new practice. Unlike many other businesses which rely on long-term, repeat clients, as hypnotherapists we tend to see clients over a relatively short time period. High client turnover means a constant need to attract new clients into our business fortunately; there is a growing market for clinical hypnotherapy services. Your practice will be as busy as you make it.
What types of subjects/issues will I be able to help people with ?
The potential for clinical hypnotherapy and its uses are almost unlimited, and the tools you will learn will give you the knowledge to treat, help or relieve many somatic and psychological symptoms: Here’s a few of the subjects we will be covering. Smoking Cessation, Weight Control, Hypno-gastric band, Anxiety States, Pain Management ,Unwanted Habits, Sleep problems, working with Children, Sports performance, Exam Stress, Irrational Fears and phobias, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Hypno-fertility and hypno-birthing and the list goes on… On very first weekend, of our practitioner level training course, we will introduce you to the fascinating and wonderful world of modern clinical hypnosis. Under Sandie’s help and guidance, not only will you have demonstrations you will also have the opportunity to practise with each other, as you learn to hypnotise one another students for the very first time!
How is the course delivered?
The clinical hypnotherapy course is usually delivered in person at our training centre, Costa del Sol, Spain.
Two days per month over 10 months, with practical classwork and class work, and with some study and practical work from home.
If there are changes to travel restrictions due to Covid, some of the modules may be taught by live video link ( Zoom )
Who is the course suitable for?
Empathetic people: Those with a genuine wish to help others, perhaps already in a caring or therapeutic profession. People who also want to retrain for a new career, or to add to their existing skill set • Begin a part-time or full time profession: create your own independent income, working your own hours from home to anywhere around the world or perhaps you are just interested in how the mind works and what makes people tick.
Who is the course not suitable for?
The course would not be suitable for anyone suffering unmanaged or severe mental ill health, people aged under 21 or people seeking to use hypnosis for entertainment. Or for those who are by nature unwilling to go the course or take instruction and guidance.
How much does a hypnotherapist earn ?
The potential income from running your own hypnosis practise varies, depending on how many hours you wish to work, you can earn upwards of € 500.00 + a week part time and obviously there is no upper limit. Some full time hypnotherapists comfortably earn over €8000.00+ each month.**
Certain parts of the training form “a business in a box” with everything you need to hit the ground running, such as Weight loss, The Virtual-Gastric Band, Stop-smoking, and Hypno-fertility.
** Earnings vary and are obviously dependent upon the individual abilities to apply themselves to running a business.
Who can apply?
There are no formal qualification entry requirements and you do not need any prior knowledge of hypnotherapy, NLP, psychotherapy or psychology. We will assess applications on individual merit, taking many factors into account. These include work and life experience, enthusiasm, suitability to work with sometimes vulnerable clients, maturity, commitment, and a general ability to complete the course successfully. Applicants must be over 21 years old, and demonstrate maturity, for example, through life experience or work experience in a caring role. A good standard of spoken and written English is essential as we regret that the trainers are unable to provide guidance in other languages. Apart from the exceptions mentioned above, we do not discriminate on the grounds of age, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, religion, voice type, appearance, or any other axis of difference provided we believe the individual has the potential to train and successfully perform as a clinical hypnotherapist.
Course Fees and payment options ?
All details of the clinical hypnotherapy course fees and payment options are in our course prospectus.
