Integrated Ericksonian Hypnotherapy Diploma with NLP Practitioner and Life Coach Certificates
Home study during the course includes the following:
•Keeping a Learning Log as a record of the principles that you will be learning each weekend.
•15 sessions of client work. (You will need to arrange to be able to do 15 sessions of ‘client work’ with volunteers that you will have arranged for yourself, from approximately the sixth weekend of the course. During these sessions you can help your volunteers to learn to relax, enhance confidence and enjoy other beneficial experiences. This will take place away from the training venue in the time between training sessions, arranged by you to suit you and your volunteer 'clients').
•Designing 5 trance scripts (we’ll teach you how to structure a hypnotherapy session and the kind of words ('language patterns') you need to use in practice and then, when you’ve learned enough you can design 5 scripts).
•Writing an essay of 1500 words titled: The Therapeutic Applications of Hypnosis, NLP and Coaching (this is your opportunity to write about whatever interests you in the world of hypnotherapy, NLP and coaching).
•Practicing techniques and familiarising yourself with principles covered on the course between each weekend of classroom training.

GHSC/GNLP/HA/HS Standards
The General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC), the General NLP Register, the Hypnotherapy Association (HA) and the Hypnotherapy Society (HS) accredit our Ericksonian Hypnotherapy Diploma course. These leading organisations independently represent the field of hypnotherapy/NLP (this means that they are not ‘tied’ to any one training organisation). We therefore support the guidelines of the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council, the General NLP Register, the Hypnotherapy Association and the Hypnotherapy Society regarding supervision. Additionally, the Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (CPS) approves this course.
Total Home Study Hours
Your total home study time will cover a minimum of 350 hours as you complete the required written work, case studies, personal practice, reading and review of audio hypnosis products. Coupled with your 20 days' classroom-based training this will bring your training hours to at least 500 hours of combined in-house tuition and extra curricular study.
Interview
When your application form is received by us you will be invited to attend an interview in Bournemouth which will last approximately 1/2 an hour, prior to admission to the course.
People Learn Best in a Relaxed Environment
All the evidence shows that people learn best when they enjoy what they’re doing. Our courses are run in a relaxed way in which delegates are free to ask questions about the areas that are being covered. Our tutors demonstrate the various techniques that we teach, while explaining the principles and theory behind them. You will also have many opportunities to practice the techniques that you’ll be learning, in groups of 2s and 3s, during the classes, so that you can learn to develop competency using them.
