Are you ready to offer hypnotherapy supervision to support and mentor others in the profession?
Our Hypnotherapy Supervisor Training Course will help you build the skills, confidence, and knowledge to offer professional supervision, either as a new service in your practice or to enhance what you already provide.
Why Become a Hypnotherapy Supervisor?
Supervision is more than simply supporting therapists with their clients. It’s also about guiding them throughout their careers, helping them reflect, stay ethical, and develop their practice. As a supervisor, you can:
- Offer supervision as an additional service to grow your practice.
- Improve the quality and reach of your work with supervisees.
- Extend your career and improve your confidence by moving into a mentoring and leadership role.
Course Content: What You’ll Learn
By the end of this training, you’ll:
- Understand the history and evidence behind clinical supervision.
- Know the difference between training, supervision, and therapy.
- Explore a range of theoretical models for supervision (with pros and cons of each).
- Gain confidence in supervising both individuals and groups.
- Learn how groups develop over time and how to use this to enhance group supervision.
- Address legal and ethical issues that arise in supervision.
- Understand the health and emotional issues that may affect supervisees.
- Build a toolkit of activities and approaches to use in supervision sessions.

Support: by email for those on the home study option, in the classroom for those learning in-person. Ongoing by email in both cases, as you set up your supervision practice.
Suitable for: hypnotherapists from all professional bodies. Accepted by many organisations as a valid route to supervisor status, including but not limited to the GHR and BHSC, who have both pre-approved it.
Please note that each professional body has its own criteria for recognising supervisor status, often based on years in practice and/or client hours in addition to supervision training. Please check what your professional body requires before enrolling.
Commitment: The in-person course is two days. Time taken to complete the home study course varies, depending on how much of the suggested wider reading and research you choose to complete. Average is around 12 hours.
Level: for qualified and experienced hypnotherapists.
