Many hypnotherapy courses teach techniques and give large script books.
We teach you how to become a skilled clinician.
From your first day, you'll learn how to understand the person behind the problem, rather then relying on scripts or one-size-fits-all approaches.
Our graduates leave with the ability to think independently, work confidently with complex presentations and create meaningful lasting change for their clients.
Trauma-informed from the beginning.
Develop the confidence to work safely and ethically with clients experiencing trauma, anxiety and emotional distress
Clinical thinking, not scripted therapy

Real support throughout your journey
Receive two years of mentoring, supervision and guidance from experienced practitioners who genuinely care about your success. Get the support when you truly need (when the clients begin).
Career-ready training
Graduate with Practical clinical skills and the confidence to build a successful, sustainable hypnotherapy practice.
You won't be left on your own once you qualify.
The real learning begins when you start working with clients. That's why your training includes two years of ongoing mentoring and support, giving you somewhere to bring questions, challenging cases and the moments when you're simply not sure what to do next.

When you choose this diploma, you're learning from more than a trainer. You're learning from a clinician, educator and international speaker who has spent decades studying the mind, body, consciousness and human behaviour.
Justine is recognised internationally for her expertise and is regularly invited to teach and speak at conferences and professional events around the world. She is also the practitioner that many hypnotherapists turn to for mentoring, clinical supervision and their own therapy when they want to deepen their skills or overcome challenging cases.
The depth of experience shapes every aspect of the diploma. Rather then simply learning techniques, you'll develop the clinical thinking, confidence and professional judgement that come from being taught by someone who works at the highest levels of the profession.
You'll graduate with practical skills, a trauma informed approach and the confidence to work with clients ethically, effectively and compassionately.
