A Distance Learning Diploma Course of 12 Lessons
Hypnotherapy is an ancient science that is finding a new and growing niche in modern Holistic Therapy practices, and is becoming an established ‘therapeutic technique’. Hypnotherapy is valuable in treating a very wide range of psychological and medical conditions.
This foundation course in Hypnotherapy, takes the student from the ‘historic use of hypnosis’, up to present day practice, in today’s professional Complementary Therapy environment. Hypnotherapy is covered from basic introduction to hypnosis and the nature of the hypnotic trance condition, to an understanding of how to induce, deepen and release a person from the trance state. The use of ‘suggestion hypnotherapy’, also simple basic ‘Hypno-analysis’ is introduced. The application of hypnotherapy to a wide range of conditions is covered, and the purpose, design, and use, of hypnotherapy scripts are included.
The course is completely stand alone and is aimed at students who wish to obtain competence in a practical and effective therapy. No previous experience is required as the course covers the appropriate basics. Practitioners of other therapies will find the course very useful as it adds another effective treatment technique to their existing practice.

The second outcome is that this firm foundation may be used as the basis for further advanced study with the SNHS courses in “Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy” and in “Medical Hypnotherapy”.

I have loved the course, as I have all the courses I have done with the School of Natural Health Sciences. I am really enjoying the advanced Hypnotherapy/Psychotherapy too. I can’t wait to finish this so I can go on to do the Higher International Diploma project, then the Medical Hypnotherapy course – earning the funds with my new career!
I have recommended you to two friends this week, so hopefully they will be studying with you too. I think I am on my 6th course with SNHS now, and have several more I wish to complete.
Which distance learning study method should you choose?
Self Study: The self-study option is a faster method of study for those who feel they may not need that support. The Self Study team review each part of your course, rather than lesson by lesson, and the team will assess your work and inform you if you are making serious errors. You will not receive feedback on your work, and you may be asked to repeat an answer paper which does not reach our threshold of acceptance.
Tutored: The tutor option is for students who would like feedback on their work and who may require more support in their studies. Our dedicated Tutor Team will review your work lesson by lesson and give you feedback, where required. You can ask questions, and the team can guide you to success by helping you navigate the course material.
There are no time restrictions, you simply study and return work when you wish. Our courses do not expire, so take your time and enjoy the gentle learning curve. You simply work through the assignments at your own pace, free from the restrictions and pressures of working to deadlines.
On average students take approximately 200 hours, 3 – 4 months, to complete a non advanced course. Around 300 hours 5 – 6 months for an advanced course plus time for practical work with your volunteers for any hands-on therapy.
This is simply a guide; everyone studies at their own pace.
There are question papers at the end of each lesson, and a final question paper at the end of each of the courses which are all conducted via email. No attendance is required.
The Final Exam is classed as an open book exam so you can consult your course material to help if necessary.
An insurable Practitioner/Therapist Level Qualification is awarded on successful completion of this course.
