Aim: To develop students’ skills and knowledge in hypnosis, with specific attention to working with stress and anxiety.   

Learning Outcomes: By the end of Module 1 the student should be able to:

1. explain hypnosis to a patient/client and deal with any misconceptions
2. induce hypnosis and use simple suggestion to help with common conditions (eg anxiety)
3. teach self-hypnosis to patients/clients so that they can utilise this for themselves for relaxation
4. utilise self-hypnosis themselves for stress management and personal development
5. identify relevant ethical and professional issues in the use of hypnosis in clinical practice
6. apply simple hypnotic techniques competently in their own clinical practice to relieve anxiety and aid relaxation

NB: Students should only treat with hypnosis those conditions that they are qualified to treat without hypnosis
