What I’ve been doing for the last 6 months…
This photo was taken on the final day of the final week of the diploma course in Advanced Hypnotherapy and Coaching.
It was not the end though, we still had ALLLLLL our coursework and client case studies to complete. And that is where the fun and learning really began!
I first trained in hypnotherapy in 2020 as part of a combined certification in mindset coaching, neuro-linguistic programming, time-line therapy and hypnotherapy. The hypnotherapy that I learnt was solution-focused and script based, and I quickly found that it worked for some people and not for others. In fact, I had hypnotherapy as a client around this time and it hadn’t worked for me… I concluded that it was my failure (in both not being a good enough client or therapist!) and rarely used it as a tool in my coaching sessions.
However, I was called towards doing deeper work with my clients and wondered if a more therapeutic approach would help facilitate a greater transformation by building on the trust that we’d already built up during our sessions.
At the start of this year, I saw an advert for Andrew Parr’s practitioner academy and knew it was the missing part of my work. It’s been such an interesting year training in the wide range of modalities that he has used with his clients over the last 30+ years.
We’ve been diving into neuroscience, psychotherapy and quantum physics (that’s a whole other post!). We’ve been learning, observing and practicing on each other and our clients. It has been a journey through my own ‘stuff’ as well as helping others to explore and heal their world – past, present and future.
I have been honoured to hold space as my clients have:
- finally let go of past experiences that have been holding them back for decades
- ditched the ‘mediocre option’ and taken an exciting leap in their career
- made decisions that previously scared them
- said no to things that they weren’t prepared to put up with any more
- had tricky conversations and felt good about the outcome
- got on a flight and had an amazing new experience
- slept properly for the first time in months
- created new habits and stuck to them
- reduced their physical symptoms and enjoyed a better quality of life
- and so much more!
So after many months of work, I’m pleased to say that I’ve received the official collection of paperwork:
- Diploma in Advanced Hypnotherapy & Coaching (DAHC)
- Diploma in Professional Hypnotherapy & Hypnosis (DPHH)
- Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma (HPD)
- Combined Certificate in Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy, Life Coaching and Counselling Skills
