PDHyp & DHyp Training Course Module Details

Hypnotherapy Practitioner Diploma Course

The Practitioner Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy (PDHyp) is a six (6) module course that introduces you to advanced concepts, principles and skills required to treat more complex medical and psychological conditions. Upon completion of this course you will be able to practice hypnotherapy independently, although access to clinical supervision and mentoring is still available if required.

Each of the six modules covers specific advanced hypnotherapy topics, which build upon your existing knowledge and skills. The first module introduces you to therapeutic intervention techniques based on brief solution focused hypnotherapy, along with eye movement and ego state approaches. In the second module you will learn about applying these treatment approaches to a variety of complex conditions such as trauma, abuse, terminal illness and bereavement. The third and fourth modules are focused on learning the process and methodology of Rational Emotive Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (RECBH) and its application in the treatment of any belief based condition that you will encounter in everyday practice. The fifth module consolidates your application knowledge in order to practice as an integrative hypnotherapist and the sixth module introduces you to evidence-based practice.

This 12 day practical course offers you an opportunity to practice the techniques that you have learned and you get to share your experiences and interface with other students. During the course you will be taught, coached and supported during your practice, once you have passed your six online course components you will be awarded the advanced Practitioner Diploma (PDHyp) in Clinical Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy. Hypnotic scripts and video demonstrations of the techniques from the course modules will also be made available to you indefinitely with no time limits.
