What is Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH)?

Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH) is the combination of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Hypnosis. With CBT, we view problems and symptoms as stemming from unhealthy beliefs and thoughts. With the cognitive approach, you take on the role of a detective and examine the problematic beliefs and thoughts, which you are holding on to so tightly.

When CBT is combined with the relaxation of hypnosis, the new way of thinking is integrated at a deeper, unconscious level which enables the changes to take place more quickly. When either approach is used alone, it's reasonably effective, but when used in conjunction, the effect is dynamic.

Hypnosis helps people to feel better, but unless the faulty thinking is changed, when faced with the same or similar situation, the unwanted response will remain and re-emerge over time. CBH is designed to help a person get better.

We provide training in 2 ways:

Foundation Course and Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy. CCBH courses provide a therapeutic structure that is evidence-based and clinically sound, involving lectures, demonstrations and experiential work. All CCBH courses are externally accredited by the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC) and the Royal College of Nursing (RCN).
