Google Reviews

The course is very comprehensive, lots of theory, but also lots of practical time to embed hypnotherapy techniques too. Over the duration of the course I have learned new skills, and I am confident to go forwards into my own private practice. Both Debbie and Linda have been supportive both in the classroom and in between sessions, helping me to develop and reflect. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is just so impactful, my clients have made incredible progress and I have loved being part of their journeys. Thank you CPHT Manchester!
This course gave me the skills to empower clients to make meaningful change while retaining their agency. It impresses me that I was already seeing real positive results in clients, well before qualifying, - Changes in mindsets, reductions in stress levels and genuine breakthroughs in unimaginable areas as well as smoke cessation and phobic response. The course has also given me the acumen to set up and market my own practise with confidence. The tangible progress has given me confidence and real pride. I now feel ready and equipped not only to support others in their transformation but to launch a business grounded in authenticity and proven methods.
On a personal note, my supervisors Debbie, Linda and my cohort have steered me through the course and been available every step of the way with encouragement, direction and kindness.
If you are looking for a substantial course in hypnotherapy, that delivers depth and practise-readiness, CPHT really delivers.
One of the best decisions I ever made!!! I wholeheartedly recommend CPHT to train with.
Anita Jaffa-Brown 2025 intake
A highly knowledgeable and professional team of course leaders (Holly, Lydia, and Lisa), who really care about your progression as a student and are experts when it comes to delivering the course material.
The content (supported by handouts, demonstration videos, and recommended reading) is well-designed, thorough, and up to date with the most recent neuroscience research.
The course includes practical exercises with peers, which are a lot of fun, and you meet so many lovely people in the process. You are also encouraged and supported to work with clients while you are training, which boosts your confidence and prepares you to launch your own practice once qualified.
If you are thinking about becoming a hypnotherapist and want the best comprehensive training there is, I would 100% recommend CPHT!
The training is not only giving me the tools to become a solution-focused hypnotherapist, it is also transforming my own outlook on life. The tutors are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive and passionate about what they do.
CPHT have provided me with a journey of growth and purpose. I thoroughly recommend this training course.
The tutors are experts in the industry and are happy to share their experience. I also appreciate the ongoing post-qualifying support.
Another highlight was the people I’ve met, fellow students who have become my close friends and part of a supportive network moving forward.
I absolutely recommend CPHT Plymouth to anyone considering a career in hypnotherapy. It has been life-changing for me.
The course had a fantastic practical element – working with real clients while studying meant I was confident and ready to start my own business the moment I qualified. The tutors were incredibly friendly, supportive, and knowledgeable, making the whole learning experience enjoyable and inspiring.
I can’t recommend CPHT Plymouth highly enough to anyone considering a career in hypnotherapy.
Another strength was its focus on the business side of setting up in private practice, which gave me the tools to get started professionally straight away.
Not only was it a great course, I was also impressed by how effective Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is in helping people achieve their goals. I left the course feeling confident, well-equipped, and inspired to begin my Hypnotherapy practice.
The tutors, Brian and Lydia, were exceptional, feeling more like mentors than lecturers. Their knowledge and experience were evident and their passion for hypnotherapy was contagious. They created a supportive learning environment where questions were encouraged and feedback was always constructive and helpful.
This course has given me the skills, confidence, and understanding to work effectively and ethically with clients and set up my own practice. Learning and practicing in a group setting has forged new friendships, making me feel like I already belong to a community of therapists, which is incredibly reassuring as I take this next step.
If you’re considering training in hypnotherapy, I wholeheartedly recommend this course.
I had had an interest in hypnotherapy for sometime and had looked at various courses but this one was the one I finally went with and I am so glad that I did. Brian and Lydia are fantastic teachers and make everything come together in such a way that learning is fascinating and, dare I say it, fun. You were guided every step of the way, not only in how to practice solution based hypnotherapy but also in how to run a business like this, no question was stupid, no step to taxing and you are practising almost from the word go.
Having got my diploma, not bad for a kid who left school 43 years ago without an O level, I now feel super confident and excited to move forward with my business.
A great course that I can't recommend highly enough.
On a professional level it has been incredible, learning a whole new skill, along with 200 client hours under my belt, so I finish feeling confident and ready to go out to begin my business now. Seeing client results and progress has been incredible and I have been blown away by the positive impact SFH has had on client lives as well as my own. I really feel that I am making a difference and this feels so good.
Holly and Brian are brilliant- their teaching is excellent and they are so generous with their wisdom and knowledge.
The weekends in college were fantastic- they were informative, sometimes challenging (great to get out of our comfort zone!) but always fun- we had so many laughs along the way. The course content is very comprehensive, so much information and very in depth, really interesting and always relevant.
It is hard and a lot of work, more than I realised when I signed up, however, it was 100% worth the effort to come out the other end as a fully qualified Solution Focused Hypnotherapist!
Thank you so much Holly and Brian and CPHT Surrey.
Right from the start, you are supported and guided one incremental step at a time. They practice what they preach so beautifully! Brian and Lydia are fantastic tutors and supervisors: the lessons were always fascinating, sometimes poignant, sometimes funny, always relevant – you’re engaged from the moment you sit down, through teaching, group discussions, skills practice. Brian and Lydia both clearly love what they do, and teach with passion, humour and generosity.
It was a fantastic journey with like-minded classmates from all walks of life, all exploring our own minds as well as supporting clients through some of the most inspiring life-changes right from the start of the course.
Now, at the end of the course, I’m sad it’s over but am so excited about how well CPHT have prepared us to start this next chapter of building a business.
Paola Milan
I look forward to my new career.
A heart felt thanks to Brian & Sian who both go the extra mile to support you on your journey, couldn’t ask for better facilitators/professionals/caring individuals.
All that said, the best thing about this course is by FAR the people. Firstly the other students, like minded individuals looking to support one and another and make a difference to help people, I can say I have made friends for life.... and secondly the tutors Lynda, Jess and Jenny. Words I would use to describe these ladies.... supportive, knowledgeable, patient, kind, relevant and inspiring!
Quite a gushing review but this course has honestly changed me as a person both in behaviour and perspective. For anyone looking to train as a hypnotherapist CPHT is the place to go!
