Description

My Practitioner Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy is a blend of eLearning at your own pace, weekly video conferencing, Masterclasses, and Peer Supervision sessions with interactive and synchronised learning.

We've learned about the importance of flexibility, and we have seen what works. 

Going back to college, may require some serious flexibility. Our online, hybrid and blended learning programmes are designed with students like you in mind. 

Do you need the structure of a classroom with the independence to study where you like? Then Hybrid is the answer.

You’ll be able to join in with interactive live classes and be in the virtual classroom, learning from the comfort of wherever you choose. Our hybrid courses combine the structure of being in a virtual classroom with the flexibility of studying from home.

You can choose to join timetabled, interactive live Masterclasses every Monday and Practice and Peer Supervision every Friday.


Masterclasses will feel like you're in the classroom even though you are joining virtually, joining in with discussions, asking questions, talking with colleagues and tutors.
 
Every module includes supported practice, you'll see demos, and get to practice new techniques, just as if you were delivering hypnotherapy sessions for real, the only difference is, you'll have your tutor and colleagues right there to support you. You'll be placed into a cohort of peers that will enable you to arrange to meet offer support accountability and practise. 

Our Hybrid training comes with plenty of online resources for you these are easy to access an will keep you on track with your studies, they're available to read watch and listen to. Once you graduate you can stay connected to the community, resources, masterclasses and peer supervision for a small annual subscription.

All our live lectures have been recorded, so if you want to watch, for extra revision,
you can!

Practitioner Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy with Medical & Dental Specialism

Your Journey Continues Here

Congratulations on completing your Foundation in Clinical Hypnotherapy.

Now it's time to deepen your knowledge, expand your therapeutic toolbox, and develop the confidence, competence and experience needed to become a highly skilled Clinical Hypnotherapist.

The Practitioner Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy with Medical & Dental Specialism builds upon everything you've learned in the Foundation, taking you far beyond the fundamentals into advanced clinical practice.

This programme has been designed for students who don't simply want a qualification—they want the skills, experience and ongoing support to build a successful, ethical and rewarding career helping others.

A Truly Hybrid Learning Experience

We've spent years developing a learning experience that combines the flexibility of online study with the support, accountability and practical experience of classroom-based learning.

Our hybrid approach allows you to study around your work, family and lifestyle without ever feeling like you're learning alone.

Your Practitioner Diploma includes:

  • Self-paced online learning

  • Weekly live online teaching

  • Monthly Masterclasses

  • Meet & Master practical training days

  • Monthly Peer Supervision

  • Individual Professional Supervision

  • The HypnoHuddle practice community

  • The Trance Tribe Learning Community

  • Annual Autumn Convention

  • Annual Spring Learning Retreat

Every part of the programme has been carefully designed to help you become a confident, capable practitioner.

Learn At Your Own Pace

Your core learning is delivered through our comprehensive online learning platform.

Study wherever and whenever suits you.

Read course notes, watch demonstrations, complete exercises and revisit any lesson as often as you like.

All live teaching is recorded, so if you miss a session—or simply want to revise—you'll always have access to the recordings.

Monthly Masterclasses

Every month we gather for a live 2-hour Masterclass, taking a deep dive into advanced therapeutic practice.

These sessions explore real therapy room applications, specialist client presentations and advanced interventions that help bridge the gap between theory and practice.

Topics regularly include:

  • Advanced clinical techniques

  • Medical and dental hypnosis

  • Complex client presentations

  • Pain management

  • Anxiety disorders

  • Trauma-informed practice

  • Therapeutic metaphor

  • Case discussions

  • New research

  • Questions from our learning community

These sessions are interactive, practical and designed to continually develop your confidence as a practitioner.

Meet & Master Training Days

Learning becomes transformation when knowledge is put into practice.

Our Meet & Master Saturdays are immersive practical training days where you'll bring your learning to life.

Together we'll:

  • Demonstrate techniques

  • Practise every intervention

  • Develop therapeutic language

  • Build confidence

  • Receive supportive feedback

  • Refine your clinical thinking

Working alongside fellow students and experienced trainers allows you to develop real confidence before working independently with clients.

Practice Makes Practitioners

We believe confidence comes from supported practice.

Every module includes opportunities to practise what you've learned with fellow students in a safe, encouraging environment.

Our HypnoHuddle provides a 24-hour practice community where students and graduates can:

  • Find practice partners

  • Ask questions

  • Share ideas

  • Receive encouragement

  • Complete homework together

  • Build confidence through regular practice

You'll never struggle to find someone willing to help you learn.

Monthly Peer Supervision

Each month we come together as professionals for an open discussion around real therapeutic practice.

These sessions explore:

  • Client cases

  • Ethical dilemmas

  • Therapeutic techniques

  • Business development

  • Clinical questions

  • Study support

Students, graduates and experienced practitioners all contribute, creating an incredibly rich learning environment where everyone benefits from the collective wisdom of the community.

As we often say...

Two heads are better than one—but a Tribe of heads is even better.

Professional Supervision

Throughout your studies you'll receive one-to-one supervision with experienced trainers and clinical supervisors.

Professional supervision helps you:

  • Monitor your progress

  • Build confidence

  • Discuss client work

  • Develop professionally

  • Receive business mentoring

  • Stay accountable

  • Continue growing as a therapist

We believe supervision should be available throughout your learning journey—not just after qualification—which is why it's included within your training.

Ongoing Trance Tribe Membership

Trance Tribe Learning Community is so much bigger than the course.

Our community is made up of an extraordinary range of helping professionals, including:

  • Doctors

  • Nurses

  • Midwives

  • Dentists

  • Counsellors

  • Teachers

  • SEND specialists

  • Scientists

  • Meditation teachers

  • Yoga teachers

  • EFT practitioners

  • Community workers

  • Artists

  • Musicians

  • Engineers

  • Therapists from many different backgrounds

Everyone brings unique knowledge and experience, creating a warm, collaborative space where questions are welcomed and learning never stops.

Beyond the Online Classroom

Your Practitioner Diploma also includes opportunities to attend two of the highlights of our academic year.

Autumn Convention

Every autumn we gather for two inspiring days of lectures, demonstrations and networking with leading experts from around the world.

Spring Learning Retreat

A hands-on experiential retreat where students and graduates develop confidence through supervised practice, consultation skills, therapeutic delivery and real client experience.

Both events are included for current students and continue to be available through our graduate learning community.

Build Your Practice While You Study

One of the unique strengths of our training pathway is that you don't have to wait until you've completed the full Practitioner Diploma before beginning your career.

Having completed the Foundation in Clinical Hypnotherapy, you already hold a recognised stand-alone qualification that enables you to obtain professional insurance and membership with recognised professional bodies.

This means that, within the scope of your Foundation qualification, you can begin:

  • Working with one-to-one clients.

  • Running group programmes and workshops.

  • Building your confidence with real clients.

  • Developing your professional reputation.

  • Growing your business while continuing your Practitioner studies.

There is no better way to develop your skills than by combining learning with supported clinical experience.

And because you're surrounded by experienced trainers and an incredible learning community, you'll always have somewhere to ask questions, discuss cases, receive guidance and celebrate your progress.

Your Learning Doesn't End at Graduation

Many of our graduates choose to remain part of the Trance Tribe Learning Community.

Membership is just £250 per year and provides ongoing access to:

  • Monthly Meet & Master Training Days

  • Monthly Masterclasses

  • Peer Supervision

  • The HypnoHuddle

  • Reduced-rate Professional Supervision

  • Business mentoring

  • The Spring Learning Retreat

  • FREE entry to our annual Autumn Convention & The Spring Retreat

  • A thriving community committed to lifelong learning

It's an exceptional way to continue your professional development long after qualification.

Your Journey Continues Here

The Foundation gave you the confidence to begin.
