I trained with CPHT Birmingham in 2016. I had looked at other training schools before choosing CPHT as the most experienced and offering the best training. For me personally, it ticked all the boxes. The venue is easy to get to and has plenty of parking, it is a very pleasant place with great facilities. The group was small and friendly and well manged. The training was interesting and comprehensive, with plenty of practise sessions. The course work is as expected for a Level 4 course, but everyone is encouraged to work hard, use their new skills and to start putting into practice what they have learned from day 1. As students and individuals, we were supported and respected. I now have a very successful Hypnotherapy practice and am undertaking an Advanced Diploma and Supervisors Course.

One of the best teachers I have the pleasure of being taught by in recent times. Classes are lots of fun, mainly due to his naughty sense of humour and his ability to give as good as he gets (and let me tell you he gets plenty). Thanks for making the last 9 months interesting and challenging. It has helped me immensely to integrate into UK life.

This has been an amazing course and it has changed my life on so many levels. Gary is the best mentor imaginable. I would recommend this to anyone. Also Mrs Johannes makes a pretty good cake!
Alison T.
This course has been AMAZING!!!! I signed up hoping to start a new career, but did not expect the positive benefits to my life and the lives of my family and friends that Solution Focused Hypnotherapy would make. Gary is one of those rare, natural teachers who is engaging, captures your interest and keeps you laughing. Most importantly he makes sure you believe in yourself. 🙂
Jeoma W.
Attending this course was one of the best decisions I have ever made. It has helped me believe in myself and change my perspective in life - & make great friends on the way 🙂 So, if you are looking for a different fulfilling career, helping people improve their quality of life by managing their stress, their confidence and self-esteem, conquering their fears, stop smoking, losing weight & so much more... well, this is the course for you. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is the best there is to achieve amazing results in a short period of time. This course is informative, practical, comprehensive, up-to-date with latest studies in neuroscience. Gary, the lecturer, is a true gem! He's thorough, professional, inspirational, with a cheeky side, and he will ensure your learning will be coupled with a load of fun! Can't recommend it enough. 6 stars for me!
Adina B.
Fantastic course - would thoroughly recommend this course for its modern, professional approach to hypnotherapy. We were encouraged & supported to work with clients from the very beginning so that by the end of the course all of us were running our own practice, feeling confident & experienced. Great lecturers - supportive, friendly, interesting & interactive.
Claire N.
Taking this course has changed me, it has given me confidence in myself and the fact that I can now go on to have a career doing something that I love. Gary is a very informative teacher and makes the classes a lot of fun.
Andrea S.
This course has changed my life. It's been an amazing 10 months of learning, gaining experience and confidence to become a solution focused hypnotherapist. Anyone considering this course should just do it. Gary is an amazing lecturer who will support you along this journey. There's nothing to lose, but everything to gain. Highly recommend!
Sally A.
This course has been an amazing positive experience in my life. The lecturers are very supportive and make the learning fun, and memorable. The course is really practical and you're encourage to begin practicing your new skills from weekend one, which was a little nerve racking at first, but this helps you to build confidence quickly. Anyone considering this course should definitely take the plunge, it'll change your life!

Training with CPHT Peterborough has been an amazing experience .
I have just qualified and in such a short space of time I cannot believe how much my life has completely changed .
This course was the best decision I ever made I knew I wanted to make career changes , little did I know my personal life would be come so much happier and that I would become a much better version of myself the person I actually wanted to be .
I choose the course and spent a lot of time researching other courses but CPHT was the only one that offered me what I was looking for a professional qualification at the end and a classroom setting and a actual tutor to have access to which was all available .
The training was very modern up to date neuroscience at times was hard but Gary the tutor is exceptional at teaching and his methods helped make it fun interesting and amazing and at the end I felt very knowledgable hypnotherapist .
I can’t praise him high enough .
Practice started quite early on and at first it felt daunting , but this too was the absolutely best thing ever I loved that in such a short space of time near the end of the course I was seeing paying clients .
I worked for the NHS for 10 years and as a result of how much I changed I decided to concentrate on my hypnotherapy practice . As I enjoyed so much helping others and seeing results in a short space of time .
It is an inspirational course run by a inspirational team of teachers . Thank you so much .

I’m almost finished the course (18-19) and it’s amazing. Everything is making sense now, why we behave the way we do, why animals don’t! The human brain is truly fascinating.
I never felt that my job as a dental nurse, was the making of me! There was something better and more rewarding for me out there, well I’ve found it!!
Solution Focused Hypnotherapy!!
I knew after the first weekend I was hooked and this IS my career path.
I will never look and back and wonder what if?? I know!! 😃🌈👍

It’s an amazing course and I’m excited about helping people
Lesley E.
The course and the tutors were amazing. Being a classically trained hypnotherapist the t filled in the blanks for me on how the mind works. I especially like the process of not having clients to dwell on the past to bring about lasting change. So much so that I now only see clients on a solution focused basis. I would highly recommend the course
Richard J.
The course is intense but very hands on. Gary, Ali and Claire encourage the students to start practicing their new skills after the first weekend which builds confidence quickly. The results that we receive from clients from the very beginning is absolutely amazing. Amazing career move.
Angie S.
The most amazing training ever! With full confidence, I can say it is life changing! I've met amazing colleagues, that are now very good friends and fellow practitioners and, of course, our wonderful and very dedicated lecturers. Anne and Alex thank you so much for making this journey so unique! I totally recommend this course to anyone who is looking to change their life towards the better and help others in the process. It's a win-win!!I am so pleased!!! :))
Mariana B.
I thoroughly enjoyed the 10 months I have spent training with CPHT Liverpool! Cathy and Jenny have been amazing tutor's, not only as teachers but supporting me through the clinical highs and lows as well as ensuring that I finished the course!
I cannot recommend this course enough as an all round way to gain knowledge and skills to prepare you to develop your knowledge base, set up your own clinical practice and start your own business.

Training as a Solution Focused Hpnotherapist at Clifton Practice 10 years ago at the age of 50 was the best move I could have made. I am enjoying a wonderful career doing something really useful and have never looked back.
Clare F.
Best thing I have ever done! Fabulous training and a new fabulous career! Thank you.
Charlotte K.
The Clifton Practice in Bristol is the Mothership of Hypnotherapy Excellence. I trained here with David Newton and Susan Rodrigues in 2012/2013.At this time, my life was in a very dark place as I was going through a divorce and my mother had died of cancer a few weeks before I started my training.Because of the supportive training and Solution Focused skills I quickly learnt I was able to pick my life back up and build a business from scratch and it ended up being one of the happiest times in my life.Since then, I have built a very successful and thriving Hypnotherapy Practice in the Cotswolds as well as a busy International practice online.Training as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist is one of the most rewarding careers ever, and the support you get after your training is excellent.The continued professional development is very comprehensive. You get regular supervision contact, additional learning, marketing help, business skills and pastoral care - and this is very helpful as you build your business.Thank you Clifton Practice, Bristol for everything you have done for me.

I have recently graduated with CPHT Cardiff and would recommend to anyone who is considering training to become a hypnotherapist. The course is well structured and practical right from the first module, which gives you client experience all through the training. The course is also has a business focus which helps you to get everything in place to practice as soon as you are qualified. I fell it has equipped me with the skills to be a successful practitioner.
Claire C.
Such a great experience training with CPHT. The trainers were friendly and knowledgable. We were practicing from the very first weekend, and by the end of the course I had opened my hypnotherapy practice with paying clients. I also came away with new friends and a support network. Not only do you get new skills, but you also learn a lot about the neuroscience behind the work we do. I would highly recommend this course to anyone.
James B.
This is the most prestigious college to train in Hypnotherapy, in the UK. The standard of teaching and classroom practice is extremely high (I say this as an experienced educator). The knowledge and skills you gain from completing your training at CPHT will set you up to be amongst the top practitioners in the country. I attained the diploma and then the advanced course (and a plethora of other CPDs), which I would highly recommend as it gives you an extra depth of skills as well as the specialist areas of work that is covered. The coursework is wonderfully holistic, giving you an understanding of hypnotherapy from its roots to its contemporary status. The added knowledge of neuroscience and research based studies you will gain from this course will set you above the rest and clients love this angle. You will leave with a toolkit of strategies, techniques and understanding all embedded in a rock solid, tried and tested formula that ensures you are ready and able to deal with any issues your very individual clients will present to you. David Newton has gifted this incredible technique: the combination of solution focused psychotherapy with hypnotherapy, to us and I will be forever grateful. This course changed my life and I absolutely love my work. Being in my consultation room and owning it is priceless. The more seasoned a practitioner you become after training, the more depth you actually grasp is within this very clever modern practice. I wouldn't hesitate. Sign up and be prepared for a lot of fun, laughter, interesting work (that doesn't seem remotely like work) and a skill-set that is heaven sent. Enfys Jones

Hi My name is Joe ForshawI am a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist. I gained my qualification with CPHT Liverpool In December 2019 where Cathy was my Tutor. I have completed many vocational courses and also a Degree in Psychology and Post Masters Cert in Criminology. However, in regard to my personal and career development, studying with CPHT was without doubt the best decision I have ever made.I has allowed me, at my own pace, to pursue a career that I have always wanted, one that is interesting and rewarding in equal measure.If you are considering studying with CPHT I can recommend it with complete confidence.Cathy is an amazing Teacher and a wonderful person, you will love her.Studying Solution Focused Hypnotherapy with Cathy at CPHT will not only allow you to change your career it will change your life.You will also make lifelong friends on the course.It will be the best career decision you will ever make.I most certainly was for me.Joe Forshaw

What an incredible experience and an incredible journey this has been.I am so glad I chose CPHT Plymouth to undertake my Diploma in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. The tutors are very experienced, motivating and confidence building. The course materials are extremely high quality.The course takes you right through the history of hypnotherapy, the main theories and concepts over time, how hypnotherapy has evolved and improved in light of what neuroscience has shown. It includes a great deal of practical experience as well as quality advice in setting up and providing your service to clients safely and professionally. It also includes a key focus of how we measure outcomes. I would genuinely recommend this course.It has literally been life changing and life fortifying for me.Andy Hill - Somerset
Andrew H.
A new career making a real difference to people's livesI found that the course structure and content were designed to create a supportive, stretching, interactive, practical route to a new career as a solution focused hypnotherapist. The tutors came across as highly experienced and knowledgeable and worked with people on the course where they were in their knowledge and understanding of hypnotherapy. As a graduating hypnotherapist from the 1st Sheffield course I can say the tutors provided me with the support I needed throughout the programme to reach each milestone and made it feel achievable. I felt the course ptovided a balance of different learning styles - theoretical or practical. The client work started almost at the start of the course and I found it incredibly satisfying to make a real difference to people's lives.
Angela S.
This is a great course. Matthew is incredibly knowledgeable about hypnotherapy and is very keen to share all his experience with his students. He is also very experienced in the realities of running a hypnotherapy business and incorporates this side of being a hypnotherapy practitioner into the training seamlessly. I really enjoyed my time as a CPHT student and I now love running a successful clinical hypnotherapist business.
Kate M.
Friendly and experienced teachers and supervisors, and a great network of fellow hypnotherapists both new and experienced for long term support
Geraldine J.
By studying Solution Focused Hypnotherapy with CPHT Surrey Hypnotherapy Training I knew that I was being taught by one of the best training schools in the country. The qualifications you receive after successfully completing the course, the Diploma in Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (DSFH) and Hypnotherapy in Practice Diploma (HPD), are considered to be the 'Gold' standard in hypnotherapy training. What I really liked about the course is that you start practicing with clients straight away, so you gain invaluable experience and start to build your client portfolio.
Lisa G.
I cannot recommend CPHT enough.From the moment I contacted them to express an interest in the course they were happy to answer questions and communicated everything I needed to know before the course began ensuring I had made the right decision in the Hypnotherapy school I had chosen to train with.I loved every minute of training with Cathy at CPHT, both lecturers are knowledgeable and experienced and it really showed, not only in the classroom but between lessons when we needed the support.Even after the ten month course ended Cathy has continued to be there as supervisor and ensure that I am happy in my new career.The course itself doesn't just teach you what you need to know as a Hypnotherapist but also as a new business owner.
Jen H.
I qualified as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist with CPHT in December 2019. Cathy is an amazing tutor and the atmosphere on the course is excellent, you will make friends for life as I did. Training with CPHT is without doubt the best career decision I have ever made. It has allowed me at my own pace, to begin a career that is both interesting and rewarding in equal measure.Joe Forshaw

I did my training with Cathy in Leeds and can honestly say she is one of the best! She is an expert in her field and also at teaching........she always manages make it lots of fun as well as making everything clear and understandable. I have also got to know John and it would be hard to find anyone more enthusiastic and generous with his knowledge. This will be a fantastic course, don't miss out!
Karen D.
Since starting training with CPHT last September, I’ve never looked back! I have made the first steps towards a brand new career where I can help others reach their full potential and find peace in their lives.
Anne and Alex, our tutors, are fantastic. They have a wealth of experience between them and have made the last 10 months of learning fun and so enjoyable. I’ll miss our monthly sessions together, but can’t wait to qualify next month and get my brand new business up and running.
I would thoroughly recommend CPHT Scotland to anyone who had a passion for helping others and who is looking for a change of career. Signing up for this course is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made!

The course run by CPHT Belfast was fabulous. The tutors were fun and informative and the content was easily understood, and able to be applied to real life therapies with clients. There was great support throughout especially considering it had to be delivered nearly entirely online at short notice. I would commend this course to any new students considering making life-changing career choices Dermot
Dermot O.
Making the decision to do this training course was simply one of the best decisions I have ever made. It has more than met my expectations. The course is presented in an enthusiastic way and I loved the informal fun approach. It has been a wonderfully practical course - both personally and professionally and I am looking forward to pursuing a career in hypnotherapy. Thank you so much!
Clare D.
I feel fortunate to have trained with the CPHT Edinburgh School , it has given me a whole new career and a new lease of life.The course is structured in such a way as to instil confidence in you from the word go. Also the lecturers are full of enthusiasm and make every module very enjoyable while delivering the essence of SFH, the neuroscience and interesting anecdotes from their personal experience as Solution Focused Hypnotherapists. They (in this instance Anne Wyatt and Alex Brounger) have been supportive all the way and have faith in sending us out into the world to 'fly solo'. The icing on the cake was meeting and getting to know the rest of the class and becoming part of our 'Hypno Family'!
Ann H.
Fantastic course, I loved the up to date research on the brain and how this impacts us on a daily basis. The combination of therapy and hypnosis is very powerful and having had some myself throughout the course I have definitely felt the benefits. The tutors are really knowledgeable, experienced and also extremely supportive with any hurdles along the way. I highly recommend this course!
Nicola D.
I have enjoyed my training with CPHT Sheffield, the trainers were very knowledgeable and ensured I have the knowledge and experience to be a successful Hypnotherapist, as well as assisting with setting up my own practice. It has been fun as well as informative.

Lisa M.
Thank you so much for such an incredible learning journey and life changing experience. This training course was highly professional, thoroughly enjoyable and very well researched and presented. I feel privileged and proud to be able to use the knowledge and skill that I have gained to be able to help my clients so profoundly and effectively. I feel ready to be able to go on and use what I have learned to great effect and excited to carry on my learning journey with you in CPD and supervision.Personally my relationships have improved to become extremely secure, stable and happy, my overall well-being and health is at an all time high and I feel totally confident that I can manage my genetic vision loss and still feel joyful and confident no matter what that brings.Thank you so much for this and more.Best wishes, Tara
Tara B.
I can only describe my time learning with the CPHT Brighton team as one of those rare experiences where your tutors (Brian and Sian) are not only knowledgeable, inspirational and engaging but also feel like life long friends. Thank you so much for a wondeful learning experience xxx
Leigh E.
I would recommend Sian and Brian and this course to anyone considering training in hypnotherapy. Sian and Brian are experts in their knowledge and delivery, they make the learning enjoyable and I have benefitted so much from having them as course leaders. The support and encouragement they have given us is fantastic and the course itself is excellent. The fact that it is a course requirement to see clients straight away meant that we have been building our experience up from day one. I am so pleased to have found and done this course, it has been life changing!
Jenna H.
I can highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to change careers and wants to help change people their lives for the better. I have personally learnt so much from this course and also gained the confidence to fulfil my dreams. The tutors are highly experienced, fun, helpful and very encouraging. I have met some wonderful like minded people and made friends for life.

If you want to be the best in this profession - you need to be taught by the best in the profession. I did a vast amount of research on the various organisations who teach hypnotherapy in the UK before signing up with CPHT Preston. No one else seemed to come close to the overall quality and content of the comprehensive course on offer at CPHT. You really are supported all the way through this quality course - and beyond, by dedicated top notch leading practitioners. Delighted to recommend.
Martin F.
From my first enquiry about joining this course I knew CPHT Preston was exactly what I'd been looking for in hypnotherapy training. I'd researched a few courses, but Cathy & Karen are absolutely fantastic. Their enthusiasm and expertise has been of the highest level. The standard of tuition is the best I've had and I would say if you're looking for a training course that gives you the knowledge you need and the support to get you to a competent, confident Clinical Hypnotherapist, then this is it! CPHT is geared to being by your side from day 1 to beyond your training with their massive choice of CPD courses. Go for it! It's the best decision I made, and I'm sure it will be for you too.
Amanda Jane H.
I have really enjoyed this course, the tutors Cathy and Karen are superb, supportive and don't mind going over subjects, you don't immediately understand first time.The course content, has been delivered in an informative, and inclusive manner throughout, in a relaxed way, with some fun and humour in the mix as well.In my own experiences the techniques we have learnt have also helped me, to improve my own, personal mental health.I would recommend this course without hesitation. I cannot wait to start helping others when I start to practise on my own, if you enjoy making a difference, and helping others in the process , this course is for you.I cannot believe how quickly this course has gone. Thanks to Cathy and Karen for delivering an enjoyable experience, and for helping me personally with care, support and encouragement throughout.
Robert S.
I am extremely happy to have completed this course. It has not only changed my life but, also the life of others. The lecturers, Lisa and Paul, were quite knowledgeable and made it very interesting. Thank you for your support and life changing experience.
Lisa L.
Really, really enjoyed my training with Jenny and Caron at CPHT Leeds. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone thinking of going into Hypnotherapy.The course is well thought out, and well paced, and gives you everything you need to set up your own practice, including hands-on experience from the start with clients so once you're qualified you are confident to see people immediately. It is fascinating, informative and a first class course.I loved the fact it covers both the neuroscience behind the therapy as well as all the marketing, and business side of things - this makes it a really well rounded course which doesn't just teach you the basics of hypnotherapy but also how to set up and run a successful practice.Both tutors are brilliant - supportive, kind, and knowledgeable with everything you need - they have their own busy clinics so can answer any and all questions you might have.Would 100% recommend. Thank you Jenny and Caron xx
Kim A.
I have qualified as a solution-focused hypnotherapist this month. I have enjoyed this course so much! The lecturers have been brilliant and very supportive. The course was fun, very informative and practising on clients during our studies has been an invaluable experience. A very rewarding career! Highly recommend. Many thanks to Jenny and Caron for all their support.
Dominica S.
I have recently qualified as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist from CPHT Leeds. I cannot recommend this course enough! You start seeing clients early on in the course meaning when you qualify you already have the confidence and experience needed to set up your own practice. The lecturers were very supportive and helpful throughout the duration of the course.If training to become a Hypnotherapist is something you have thought about but never been sure on, just go for it! you won't regret it!Thank you, Jenny and Caron!
Holly M.
Fantastic hypnotherapy course! It has been such a great experience. My tutors where very knowledgeable and supportive and my fellow students have been such a lovely group of people to be around! Something that I have really valued about this course is that we began to practise with real clients from the beginning, so by the time we graduated, we were very well prepared and already practising as professionals. Thank you Jenny and Caron for all that you have taught us.
Carla Marcos L.
By studying Solution Focused Hypnotherapy with the CPHT Surrey Hypnotherapy Training School, you will not only be able to learn all of tools and techniques associated with hypnotherapy, but will also gain the valuable experience of working with a portfolio of clients. One of the best aspects of the course is that through the excellent guidance of the tutors (who share their knowledge generously) you will be able to have everything you need in place to start practicing. As a byproduct of the course I have also found I am confident in a number of areas which I have previously struggled with. Thank you Holly and Brian
Vicki R.
I was so glad I chose to train with CPHT, - there are a number of other courses available but they don’t have the ‘all-round’ approach that CPHT offers. They cover everything, this isn’t just a theoretical course, you get to put it into practice very quickly which builds confidence, and the practical skills required to gain real experience prior to qualifying. The course covers marketing, finance, date protection, business planning - everything you need to set up your own business and it is done at a pace that doesn’t feel overwhelming at any point. The tutors Jenny and Caron are fantastic and the support is second to none. The students on my course were fantastic and we supported each other throughout the course. When I was researching hypnotherapy courses I saw the reviews for CPHT and was a tad cynical that they were all five star reviews and here I am almost a year later giving them a well deserved five stars from me! Absolutely worth it.
Sue F.
Matthew Cahill has the secret sauce and Joanna and Alina have an energy and magic that lights the course up all the way through making the 10 months seem short. The course is cleverly thought out and delivered in well designed blocks giving a valued emphasis on the practical aspect. As a result I constantly felt stretched, supported and trusted. Matthew's calm and unflappable nature inspires and builds confidence. Here's the real magic that separates CPHT from other cheaper and quicker courses... By the time I graduated in August 2021 I already had an organised and professional practice up and running with a small but steadily increasing client base. It also gave me the confidence to initiate the transition from my current Project Management role into full time Hypnotherapy. I highly recommend CPHT London to anyone considering hypnotherapy as a career. Thank you Matthew, Joanna, Alina and all my wonderful delegates/students/therapists... 🙂
Jake N.
A truly excellent training course, providing everything needed to begin a successful and rewarding career as a hypnotherapist. Cathy and Charlotte (ably assisted by Karen and John) are veritable fonts of knowledge and positively bubble with enthusiasm and expertise. Highly recommend this course.
Debbie R.
An amazing course with fantastic tutors in Lisa and Paul. They really care about making you the best you can be and support you all the way. I would recommend CPHT to anyone.
Chris T.
Making the decision to take part in this training course has been the best decision I have ever made. It has been so positively life changing. The course is delivered in a very professional yet friendly and supportive manner. Anyone looking to do this course, I truly believe it would be the best decision you could ever make. Thank you so much Lisa and Paul.
Russ H.
I'm about to graduate from the Solution Focused Hypnotherapy course and have thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm already an experienced clinical hypnotherapist but wanted to learn about the solution focused approach. Also The Clifton Practice is very well known as a centre of excellence, so I knew I could learn a lot from this course. The course is well structured, well paced and the tutors are very professional, friendly and helpful. It's been a great experience, I've met some wonderful people and I've learnt even more about hypnotherapy and psychotherapy. It's a great course for both beginner and experienced therapist alike. If you're considering a future in hypnotherapy or want to add another modality to your current practice, then CPHT would be a recommended place to look.
Addison C.
I found this course very informative and really appreciated how accommodating both tutors were given that i am the first blind student they have had on the course. Due to Covid the majority of the course was via zoom but this did not detract from the learning experience. The course challenged me at times, however i acquired new skills and knowledge and received excellent support from both tutors throughout.
Richard T.
I have almost completed my course with CPHT. They have been supportive and helpful all the way. I highly recommend the course, it has changed my life, allowing me to pursue a very rewarding career.
Jackie S.
If you are considering training as a hypnotherapist this is the course for you. I cant recommend this course enough everything about the course content, tutors, support and overall learning experience has been outstanding. It has been a life changing experience for me and I feel like a different person than the one that started the course. You will never regret booking on to this course and training as a solution focused hypnotherapist, one of the best decisions I have made.
christine M.
An amazing course and the tutors we're brilliant! Definitely recommend
Sara M.
It has been an amazing 10 months of training - both of the tutors are extremely knowledgeable and present a course that builds up from the previous months' learning, that encouraged us to start practising from the very first session.I would heartily recommend enrolling on this course to start your fantastic journey to becoming a Solution Focused Hypnotherapy.
George M.
Signing up to this course is the best thing I have done, its a life changer! The tutors Cathy and John are the most professional and entertaining duo, I learnt and laughed lots.

I highly recommend anyone who is looking to explore the idea of creating their own business in solution focused clinical hypnotherapy and psychotherapy to get in touch with CPHT Brighton. I have just qualified and can’t thank Brian and Sian enough for sharing their knowledge and support with me and the fantastic group of people that I have shared the experience with. It’s been an amazing, life changing experience and I look forward to what the future now holds for me. Thank you Sian and Brian!

Having experienced the ‘sharp end’ of hypnotherapy, John brings his own knowledge and understanding to the classroom. Approachable and supportive, he has a warm and friendly personality which enhances his teaching style and ability to ‘get the message across’. With his love of coffee, good food and travel, as well as his outstanding technical skills, John is a tutor not to be forgotten and it is a pleasure to have been taught by him. His supervision sessions are pretty good too!
Sandra M.
What an amazing course. Brian and Sian are excellent teachers and truly knowledgeable in their field. The course was engaging and informative and I always looked forward to the next weekend of learning.You also have clients throughout the course so that by the time you qualify you feel confident and ready to start your business.I also met some amazing people in the class who I am happy to now call friends.

If you are looking to train in a new career I couldn’t recommend CPHT Brighton more. The course is thorough and taught by professional and knowledgeable tutors who go above and beyond to teach in an engaging and effective way. The course has not only helped me to develop professionally, but personally I have also gained a great deal from it. Thanks so much.
Ruth B.
The course was friendly and comfortable. The teaching methods were thought provoking and clear.All the students noticed a difference in thinking, now we are more knowledgeable and really believing that we can confidently deliver Solution Focused Hypnotherapy for helping and supporting people.Additionally, I have learnt some effective techniques that have proved helpful to me personally.It was excellently done, professional and sensitive. Brian and Sian led us towards the answer, rather than telling us.

Ten months ago, I can honestly say that I was a different person - this course has enabled me to envisage and to appreciate life differently and to help countless people along the way. It's been a transformative journey, even within my own family - as my little boy was helping me rehearse for one of my assessments, we all realised he was also starting to understand the workings of the brain. My sincere thanks to both Sian and Brian who are simply outstanding teachers and mentors.
Isabelle B.
A great course, so interesting. John and Cathy are great teachers,explained everything so clearly .

I have just completed the CPHT Liverpool Hypnotherapy course and cannot recommend it highly enough. The course has been enjoyable providing a fascinating insight into the mind and brain. The tutors Cathy, Charlotte and Jen are inspiring , professional, always supportive and make the material accessible, interesting and fun. A well planned, well executed and practical course providing all information and training necessary to become a fully trained solution focused hypnotherapist.
Heather W.
This is quite simply a superb course with great tutors, and I feel very lucky to have been a student with CPHT Liverpool as the trainingI have received has been enjoyable, comprehensive, informed by the latest neuroscience and immensely practical.The practical nature of the course has given me so much confidence as I was able to see for myself just how effective the techniques we were being taught are.
Catherine L.
This was one of the most fun and exciting thing I had did and even though I couldn’t finish the course due to personal reasons the course is along with the tutors is excellent and would advise anyone to take it. Even though I couldn’t finish I have asked to do the next course so I can finish and get my qualifications. Enjoyed every bit of it Thank You

Emma S.
Matthew Cahill and his team provide a first-class intensive course at Finsbury Circus in London. Over the 10 months we were made to actively participate and practice a therapist's skills, so that by the end we felt completely confident and ready for practising. There was fanatastic backup and communication between sessions, with questions always comprehensively and promptly answered. All aspects were covered including marketing, the therapeutic relationship, ethical practices, as well as the techniques themselves. For all the tuition and support we got it was excellent value.We were taught that a session of hypnotherapy should be the highlight of the client's week. The tuition days were certainly the highlight of my month.I can't recommend the course highly enough.
Juliet S.
I did my training with Cathy in Leeds several years ago and I can highly recommend both Cathy as a tutor and this course. It is informative, fun and life changing. CPHT is a highly respected training provider and the qualifications gained are second to none, the gold standard in the UK!
Karen D.
I completed the CPHT Liverpool Hypnotherapy training programme in April 2021. This is an excellent programme. Cathy and Charlotte (Programme leaders) were so knowledgeable and supportive. The course was well designed and paced. A strong sense of community is fostered from the outset and there is excellent ongoing support from tutors on all areas of practice and the practicalities of setting up a business. I recommend the course highly.
Catherine O.
I really enjoyed this life changing course. It has been lovely to be able to help myself and others to make positive changes in their lives. In addition I met such lovely people along the way.

This course will literally change your life and those around you. Lisa and Paul provide top quality training of their own and enriched our learning through phenomenal guest speakers. As someone who has worked with different modalities, solution focused hypnotherapy has provided me with an incredibly powerful therapy to support those in crisis. If you’re wandering whether to take this course ….. stop wandering …. Do it…. You won’t regret your decision. Lucy Silk

I could not recommend this course enough. CPHT Belfast Hypnotherapy Training has changed my life! It is led by supportive and knowledgeable trainers. The course is well structured, interesting and above all a lot of fun! I feel very well prepared to launch my own hypnotherapy practice and look forward to continuing my professional development with the Clifton Practice.
Lauren A.
I was apprehensive about doing my hypnotherapy training at first, but having completed the course, I’m so glad I did it, and especially that I studied with Matthew at CPHT Plymouth. The course was demanding but interesting and fun, with the right balance of theory and practice. Matthew and the others who teach on the course really know their stuff. I graduated a few months ago and have already set-up a practice and started to see clients. Highly recommend!

I completed my Solution Focused Hypnotherapy training with Matthew Cahill and Alina Bialek in July this year. The quality of course and the support provided throughout was second to none. If you are considering training to be a hypnotherapist I would thoroughly recommend CPHT London.
Gaynor M.
A fantastic course which was very practical and most importantly fun throughout. You will learn everything you need to be a successful hypnotherapist. Susan and Stuart are excellent lecturers and good fun. If you want to have a positive impact on poeples lives as well as your own, I can highly recommend this course for you.

You won't regret doing this course! The tutors are fab and support you the whole way with informative weekends and supervision in-between. I have a much deeper understanding about how and why people develop behaviours and habits that can be destructive and debilitative. You will learn the skills you need to transform your clients lives for the better. Using the Clifton Practice's solution focused hypnotherapy techniques, I now have so much more confidence in my own abilities as a therapist going forward. This is such a positive, forward looking style of therapy that, believe me, you won't look back once you've tried it and will be set up at the end of the course to start a successful business. Good luck!
Jessika S.
I couldn't recommend this course enough. It's so well structured and led by incredibly helpful and knowledgeable tutors. Solution focused hypnotherapy is a unique form of hypnotherapy and already I've seen it make a massive impact in my life and on the lives of my clients. Thank you CPHT Belfast
Deirdriu M.
CPHT Bristol has a friendly professional environment giving clear understandings of the concepts and techniques of hypnotherapy in a fun way. There's support available when ever needed and they provide up to date research on brain science. I have done most of the courses available and hope to go to the new ones in the future. Training with CPHT has given me really helpful skills to enhance my life and the life of others too. Glad I chose to do this in my life. Christine

This course changed everything for me; I gained knowledge, skills and understanding that I now use daily, both personally and in my own successful practice. I would highly recommend it.

John C.
I signed up with the Clifton Practice Hypnotherapy Training purely for personal enrichment but I have gained so much more. I am now a full-time hypnotherapist with my own practice and the opportunities it has provided as well as the doors it has opened have been incredible. Matthew is a fantastic educator. He has vast understanding of the science behind hypnotherapy but is also gifted in building your confidence as a practitioner. His belief in his students is infectious and he doesn’t put a ceiling on what you can achieve. I am helping hundreds of people as a result. It is my absolute pleasure to recommend this course.
Paul M.
This course has literally changed my life! By re-training I have the skills and confidence to leave a job I no longer loved and do something really worthwhile and fulfilling as a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist. Anne and Alex were great and the people on the course are now friends for life.
Elaine N.
Absolutely fabulous course! CPHT is a great training school to study with as it really is a leader in the industry. We train to a level 4 diploma so it isn’t an breeze’ by any stretch of the imagination but, it is worth while and so well put together. CPHT support their teaching skills with lots of evidence based stats and the use of certain pieces of equipment (I don’t want to spoil anything and give to much info away). I would highly recommend the course. You begin practicing from day one and the way the course has been put together ensures that by the end you have a small practice up and running. Perfect 👌🏼
Don’t overthink it, just do it! You won’t regret it.... it’s absolutely fantastic!!!!

Such an interesting, enlightening and fun course that has not only allowed me to help change the lives of those around me but has had a profound effect on me to. Debbie and Sharon are brilliant lecturers, keeping us informed, entertained and in check (if needed!). Thank you for your professional but really welcoming approach, it makes all the difference.
I've also been lucky enough to meet 3 fantastic ladies, and although the course has now sadly finished, we will stay in touch and continue to support each other.

Liz L.
Fantastic course! In depth learning of hypnotherapy, informative and enlightening. The skill taught are usable instantly and can be applied in a clinical situation or to any aspect of your own life. Gary's style of teaching is entertaining and laid back but he won't let you off the hook. Clinical hypnotherapy and neuroscience (how the brain works and why we behave as we do) are covered. Sad it's over. Thoroughly enjoyed the process.
Bridget B.
An excellent course and tutor, very insightful and provided the scientific evidence and content that I was looking for.
A profound sense of empowerment was gained for me during the course and subsequently as a qualified clinical practitioner, which I now pass on to clients and watch the rewards this brings to me and my clients, life changing on both accounts.

Classroom versus online training
Face to Face classroom learning is fundamental to the practical learning style used in all CPHT schools. Students learn from the Lecturers and each other. The Lecturers explain each new skill, before demonstrating it. Students then practice on each other before practising their new skills on their ‘clients’. This builds confidence and that quickly leads to competency.
Questions asked in a classroom setting get an immediate answer. Other students benefit from these questions and answers, even before they’ve thought of them personally. Students build life-long relationships with other students as they experience the excitement of building their new business.
Why choose a classroom course from CPHT?
- Face-to-face support from experienced practicing hypnotherapists
Our Lecturers all run busy, successful hypnotherapy practices as well as being effective tutors, so you can be confident that you will learn what works best in today’s marketplace. CPHT Lecturers are also qualified hypnotherapy Supervisors. They are available to support students both during the training weekends and between them.
- The latest training
CPHT is recognised as the most up-to-date course in the UK. It is based on the latest research and neuroscience. Students learn to do what works best with their clients. We use the very best techniques taken from Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Brain-based Therapy, CBT and NLP.
- Practical experience
CPHT is probably the most practical hypnotherapy course in the country. We encourage our students to start practising from the very first weekend of the course. Initially working with friends and family, students soon move on to helping people with real conditions. Even while training, students see their new skills help people to get better.
- First Class learning facilities
CPHT has multiple training centres in the UK. The venues have been specifically selected for convenience and suitability to provide an easily accessible, quiet, safe space for learning & practical activities.
