It can be challenging to make such a decision at this stage, before you have begun your training, and we are sure you have many questions, which we would be happy to discuss with you. Here we offer a quick guide to our pathways before moving into reading about them in detail.
If what you are really looking for is to train as a Hypnotherapist, then you might be interested in our Hypnotherapy Pathway. If you are unsure whether you want to train as a Hypnotherapist or Psychotherapist and meet the entry criteria, you might want to consider one of our UKCP pathways, as there are many points at which you can pause along the way should you wish.
