The Diploma in Analytical Hypnotherapy

 Practitioner Course  (Dip.AH)

This was a Professional level course for current for intending hypnotherapist practitioners, practising commercially, or for people with a strong interest in self-development practising privately with family or friends, or voluntary work. The course ran from 2007 to 2026 when I decided to retire from the training aspect but continue with hypnotherapy. I still believe that, like training, therapy is best conducted face to face. Remote training and therapy has its place but there are parts of it that are far better conducted personally. But some people prefer to do the remote style and that is their preference!

(Historical) Who has trained on this course?

• Medical, dental and nursing staff. The original use for hypnosis was for healing purposes and this continues today either in the field of physical or mental health. Clinical hypnotherapy courses have helped dentists to deal with dental phobia, needle phobia and other problems encountered when performing dental surgery, e.g. Excessive bleeding, healing rate improvement and with patients who are nervous, frequently encounter gagging difficulties which makes the surgery much more difficult if not impossible. Medical usage can range from wounds and burns healing more quickly to pain relief of all descriptions. Nursing staff sometimes feel they can do more with hypnotherapy which they were unable to do for patients under a purely medical model and for that reason the number of nurses who have been on this course amount to 33%. This is not to say that their training as a nurse was incorrect or inadequate but often more can be done quickly and effectively with clinical hypnosis training.  Self-hypnosis training is given on this course to instruct others to do it and can be invaluable in the treatment of pain and help with other medical problems such as cancer.     
• Pharmacists. Often encounter clients who would like to stop smoking, or control their diet and weight better and so can help in this (and other) areas.
• Administrators, Directors and Managers. Using hypnotherapy and sometimes switching careers completely.
• Professional gardening and farming staff. In students encountered, the physical aspect of doing their job is either causing problems or they have developed an illness or disability which means that a more sedentary job like being a professional hypnotherapist means they can either partly or wholly switch careers and reduce the load on muscles bones and tendons!
• Complementary therapists. Hypnotherapy can work well with other complementary therapies - examples are life-coaching, reflexologists, acupuncturists, massage therapists and so on. Where a client has had good experience with the non-hypnotherapy treatments, they can develop a better rapport with the therapist using hypnosis.    
• Hypnotherapists. Sometimes I encounter clients who have had a bad experience with a relatively untrained hypnotherapist. This kind of therapist needs rescued fast! They may have done a correspondence course (entirely inadequate - this is very much a hands-on as well as theory area).  I have sometimes supervised a poorly-trained therapist and really the only sure cure for this is a proper course such as this one which deals with basics first and then improves confidence by dealing with the more complex aspects of a clinical and analytical hypnotherapy course. Case studies are absolutely vital for gaining confidence. A professional hypnotherapist course has minimum criteria to acquire General Hypnotherapy Standards Council accreditation and if considering training this has to be checked and that the instructor is also an experienced, practising, registered and verified practitioner themselves.   
• Driving Instructors. Learner and experienced drivers alike are not immune to driving phobia! So this is a good adjunct to the day-job for pupils who have developed a dislike for being behind the wheel.
• Weight Loss Clinicians. Hypnotherapy for weight loss can complement the main activities of encouraging good dietary practice and appropriate exercise. For example hypnotic gastric band weight loss.
• A wide variety of people. Want to do hypnotherapy training in Scotland and this list will no doubt be expanded in due course.
