CPD Event title: Diploma in CBT-hypnosis
Brief Description Of Event:
Live zoom workshop
9.30am to 4.30pm
Sunday 9th August 2026
Online, self-paced version also available
CBT-Hypnosis combines the evidence-based principles of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with the transformative potential of hypnosis, creating an approach that is both deeply engaging and highly effective. Rather than relying solely on discussion, worksheets and conscious reflection, CBT-Hypnosis brings the cognitive model to life through imagination, embodied experience and therapeutic hypnosis.
You’ll learn how to work with the powerful relationship between thoughts, emotions, physical sensations and behaviours in a way that clients can genuinely experience, rather than simply understand. By incorporating safe, carefully guided imaginal exposure, mind-body techniques and hypnotic interventions, clients are able to rehearse new responses, strengthen emotional learning and develop lasting change at a deeper level.
While traditional CBT provides an outstanding framework, its structured format doesn’t always resonate with every client or every learning style. CBT-Hypnosis preserves the very best of the cognitive behavioural model while offering a more experiential, flexible and intuitive way of applying it. The result is a modern, powerful therapeutic approach that opens up new possibilities for practitioners working across a wide range of presenting issues.
