Introduction
The third stage of our training builds upon the previous stages and furthers your knowledge and practice of hypno-psychotherapeutic counselling, encouraging competence and confidence to work within the complexities of practice.
Entry to Stage 3 is open to you when you have completed the Stage 2 weekends.
Stage 3 is the diploma stage, at the completion of which you will receive the award of the Diploma in Hypno-Psychotherapeutic Counselling, with the designating letters DHPC(NC).
The syllabus for this stage requires you to attend over five weekends at monthly intervals and undertake a programme of home study.
On Stage 3 you can work with clients in a close relationship with your clinical supervisor. If you are intending to progress through Stage 4 towards UKCP, for every six hours of therapy you carry out, you will need to have one hour of supervision.
