Taunton Autumn Update

The season continues to be kind to us in Taunton, as the foundation students move closer to the end of their course the assessment, a practical exam is only a few days away now.
While it can be a time of nerves and apprehension it is wonderful to see how far the students have come in such a short time.

This first step on their way to become safe hypnotherapists is always such an exciting time, but while they now know why it is so important to work safely, they still have so much to learn about hypnotherapy and the next step, the start of the next PG Cert, is only a few short months away.

It takes a lot of commitment to study for a course with university accreditation and it is not for the faint hearted, or for those who think they can just wing it, it requires serious study, and a commitment to reading right from the start. There are some who underestimate the work involved, but one thing is certain, that all those who choose to study with us at the LCCH learn not only about hypnosis and hypnotherapy but also much about themselves, as they come to acknowledge that an open mind and curiosity and a critical mindset is a good foundation for anyone who chooses to study and progress.

As the Foundation students prepare for their final weekend, the PG Cert students are looking forward to weekend 11, and are all well underway with their own case studies, in preparation for their final assignment. It has been a good group, who have become closer, as they have worked though the year. Each weekend has brought with it new learning of the depth of work a good qualified clinical hypnotherapist can bring into the therapy room, in a client centred and solution focused way, using the many and varied approaches from the eclectic world of psychology and health care.

The new dates for the 2016 Foundation and PG Cert courses have been put in place for next years courses in Taunton and there only needs to be added the new dates for the 2016 Masterclasses / CPD events.

All of our PG Cert students have to be DBS checked, insured and registered with the British Society of Clinical Hypnosis  thus ensuring that they start their training in clinical hypnotherapy with the mindset that they are aware of their ethical practice, and responsibilities.

Taunton Autumn 2015

Autumn is here and with it the start of the 2015 Foundation Course in Taunton

There have been a few changes, since the last blog post. The college has undergone another re validation with University of West London and we have seen our latest MSc students graduate over the summer and we send our congratulations to them all, and also all of those who passed their exams this year. We look forward to welcoming back, some of you as you continue on with your studies.

Our masterclasses have become CPD courses, and our CPPD certificate course, is now a Foundation Course in Clinical Hypnosis. There are also some significant improvements to the Post Graduate Diploma too, which you can see on the website.

If you haven't looked recently the website has had a facelift too. www.lcch.co.uk

At Taunton we are looking forward to welcoming our new students next weekend, for the start of the Autumn Foundation. Our students are travelling from all around the west country, and we will have an exciting start to the weekend as they get to know each other and learn the fist steps of safe practice, and underpinning theory.

Parking over the summer has caused the post graduate students a few problems, as the loss of the public carpark on site, which has been given over to the college builders, has meant that the early morning runners have parked in and over the school parking spaces. Fortunately most have gone by the start of the day, and we have managed it extremely well.

The PG Cert students are now turning their attention to their case studies and with only 4 more lectures left, they all have their exam preparation in mind.

There are some exciting times ahead, so this blogger has every intention of keeping you posted.

Don't forget to look out for the LCCH podcasts.
