University Awarded Hypnosis Courses (London)  Application Forms Page

All teaching takes place in central London on interspersed Saturdays. We have found this approach to training to be one of the most effective ways to enhance the process of learning practical approaches, giving students time and the opportunity to develop client centred skills and theoretical knowledge. In addition also allowing students from all over the UK to attend the course. This is also beneficial for individuals who have other professional commitments or are already employed. Our University Awarded Training Courses in clinical hypnosis, hypnotherapy are currently only held in London at the London School of Hygiene and Medicine.

The (CertHE) in Clinical Hypnosis is held over 1 academic year & (DipHE) Practitioner Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis is held over 2 years. The BSc (Hons.) in Clinical Hypnosis builds upon the DipHE in Clinical Hypnosis with one further academic year of study. Each academic year has 2 semesters broken down into 4 modules. Making 12 modules in total for all 3 levels over 3 years. Each module completed is worth 30 university credits. Therefore, in its entirety, it is three year part time programme providing students with a unique and recognised academic qualification in Clinical Hypnosis upon completion of each year.

As students come from a variety of professional backgrounds and experiences, we are delighted to offer students the initial option to register for one semester covering the first two modules to begin with, to assess their suitability and acquire a basic feel for the course. Please contact the foundation for further information. Students can then choose to continue with their studies and undertake the next 2 modules in the following semester to complete the (CertHE) in Clinical Hypnosis.

Students who choose this introductory option will be requested to pay only 50% of the current yearly course fee and will receive a certificate of attendance and will be awarded 60 university credits on completion of the first two modules. University credits can then be transferred to any additional undergraduate university programme of interest. Students must complete the required modules in order and can choose to continue with their studies and undertake the next 2 modules in the following semester or have a break and return at a later date. This particularly allows students to have a break for personal circumstances if required and still retain the accumulated credits.

This flexible option may also be of benefit for students who wish to study Clinical Hypnosis in a scientific, theoretical and practical way without the need for full training in clinical practice. Students can also use this system to explore whether undertaking the full DipHE in Clinical Hypnosis in order to become a fully qualified practitioner in Clinical Hypnosis is right for them.

Current practising hypnotherapist’s who can demonstrate the appropriate prior learning or experience and wish to apply to update their training with a recognised university qualification, may be eligible to take a fast track route and be directly accepted onto the second year of the DipHE programme.

Our current training venue for courses in clinical hypnosis & hypnotherapy in London is the London School of Hygiene and Medicine in central London.

If you would like to pay for the course fee by credit card please complete the application form and secure online booking process. All other cheque deposit payments should accompany the booking form upon application for the course and be returned to the BST Foundation.
