...
S.A.C.H. MISSION STATEMENT
Our aim at the School of Analytical and Cognitive
Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy is to promote
the subject of hypnotherapy
and hypnoanalysis from the relative obscurity of the
fields of alternative and complementary medicine
to the mainstream
of psychological academic studies, where it rightly
belongs. SACH staff is constantly active in promoting
and researching
the subjects of hypnosis and psychotherapy on both
the national and international academic levels.
We strongly believe that hypnotherapy
is an integral part of the art and science of psychology,
and that it should
be taught in conjunction with counselling and psychotherapy
as an indispensable psychological tool. As such SACH is
now accredited by City & Guilds towards
NVQ level 3 in counselling and is Charter Institutional
member of the American Psychological Society.
More then 2000 people have attended and benefited from
our courses and seminars and we are actively creating new
links with various Universities and psychology departments,
both nationally and internationally. SACH courses and seminars
are currently being taught in the UK, Russia, China and
the USA.
SACH is involved with international academic exchange
programmes in both Russia and China, and SACH students
and staff are frequently travelling to foreign countries
delivering seminars and teaching courses, as well as participating
in various international conferences.
So how about joining us – to
explore the mind and see the world?

Alchemy Institute, Santa Rosa, California, USA

What is Hypnotherapy - Psychology?
Hypnotherapy-Psychology is among the latest developments
in the field of transpersonal hypnotherapy.
Transpersonal hypnotherapy goes beyond traditional psychological
approaches in order to access the “undiscovered country” of
the super-conscious mind and provide a means of discovering
and experiencing vast resources of creativity, expanded
consciousness, inner wisdom and transcendental states of
awareness.
By uniting the science of
psychology with the art of philosophy with the proven
effectiveness of hypnosis, Hypnotherapy–Psychology
is emerging as a powerful new tool for facilitating healing.
Specialization in this innovative therapeutic approach
empowers the therapist to take the client beyond addressing
the presenting issue and realize an integrated identity.
By addressing client issues from a broader perspective
- health, sexuality, emotional, vocational, social, and
spirituality - this new psychological specialty encourages
improvement in every aspect of the client’s life
experience.
As an integrative approach to healing, Hypnotherapy-Psychology
utilizes theory, technique, demonstration, and practice
to encompass a broad range of approaches to helping people
improve their well-being, alleviate distress and maladjustment,
resolve crises and increase their ability to live more
highly functioning lives.
The aim of this advanced training program offered by the
international School of Analytical & Cognitive Hypnotherapy
is to provide the necessary theoretical underpinnings required
to bring to the profession of hypnotherapy the academic
and professional credibility it deserves as a serious therapeutic
discipline.
Graduates of this higher diploma program in Hypnotherapy – Psychology
learn specific methods for identifying personality types,
the patterns and themes client’s commonly present,
and how to create innovative therapeutic interventions
adapted to the needs of each client. As a result, Hypnotherapy-Psychology
graduates possess a unique sensitivity to a world of increasing
cultural and religious diversity.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS
The Higher Diploma Course in Hypnotherapy - Psychology
is designed according to the latest requirements of various
professional organisations. Anyone who wishes to become
a therapist capable of helping those suffering from emotional
disorders requires a thorough and comprehensive training
which includes a clear demonstration of the skills and
approaches taught.
Such training should include a study of psychology, and
theories and methods of psychotherapy, as well as acquiring
the ability to use a wide variety of hypno-therapeutic
techniques.
Students will be expected to take full case histories
and to maintain confidential records. Students will be
required to complete three case studies per month to fulfil
the course requirements. Case studies will be written as
a result of work with supervised study groups.
Opportunities are given for students to present and offer
case histories for open discussion. By the end of the course
students are expected to have documented 60 case studies.
Students will be tested on their success in developing
their own counselling approach according to the integrative
principles presented.
Through the training there will also be an emphasis on
self-awareness, personal growth and development. The practice
of co-counselling is encouraged.
PERSONAL THERAPY
Students as future practitioners are expected to be mentally
and emotionally fit to help others. Due to the sensitive
material that will be handled during the course, it is
inevitable that one’s own issues will surface. These
issues will be worked with on the course, but as the course
is not regarded as ‘therapy’, students will
be required to work with these issues outside of the course
hours if need be. If students feel they need to refer to
therapy at any point within the course, a list of recommended
and competent therapists, trained by the School, will be
provided. Therapy is not a requirement of the diploma course,
but with some professional bodies it is expected as part
of their membership requirements.
DURATION
Appreciating the pressures of modern life, time and financial
constraints, the training course is conducted at weekends,
one weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) every two months.
The programme is designed to be completed within one
year.
The training days are mainly experiential, and commence
from: 9.00am until 9.00pm, Friday & Saturday & 9.00am
until 6.00pm Sunday. (33 credit hours per weekend)
There will be two 15-minute tea breaks and 1-hour lunch & dinner
breaks. As we will be working as a group, students are
encouraged to bring food to share, and the lunch break
is an integral part of the course.
Throughout the training course, students are expected to
meet regularly between the course dates. This is to enhance
practice and gain benefit from the exchange of information
in regard to practice and previous knowledge from those
students already in the caring professions.
ASSESSMENT
The assessment on this course is ongoing and accumulative.
Students have to demonstrate understanding of what they
are doing, being able at all times to explain and clarify
their therapeutic interventions as well as being able
to critically evaluate their work and the work of others.
By the end of the course students are expected to submit
a portfolio of case studies that show evidence of understanding
and applying the course material to therapy.
As we have a professional responsibility to maintain a
high standard of practice within the Hypnotherapy - Psychology
field, the School staff will constantly assess students.
If any student does not reach the required standard of
work, intellectually and interpersonally, then they may
be asked to withdraw from the course or be referred to
further training in Hypnotherapy.

The cost of the course is $2700 in total, which is spread
across the duration of the course. This is divided into
6 monthly instalments of $450, (10% discount if paid
in advance) and a non-refundable deposit payable with

COURSE CONTENT
The following outline of the course is a necessarily general
one. The syllabus below will be adopted to the needs
of individual students and constantly updated with the
latest technologies of Hypnotherapy-Psychology as they
are developed. This is a LEARN BY DOING, ‘hands
on’ programme and not just a theory-lecture course.
THE SYLLABUS
601: Counselling Skills: A Three Stage Model
Introduction to psychology; psychoanalytical theories of
personality; Freud, Jung and Adler. You will learn to identify
the stages of childhood development according to Freud;
identify and work with defence mechanisms; explore basic
theory of Jungian archetypes and work with Adler’s
birth order theory.
602: Object Relations Therapy: Utilizing Transference
and Countertransference
Often an inner parent for the inner child is not enough
for your clients. They need your parenting as well. Using
Winnicott’s concept of holding the client, Melanie
Klein’s theory of the paranoid-schizoid position
and Bowlby’s Attachment Theory, we will learn to
work with and within the transference and countertransference
in the hypnotic state to maximise client results. We will
also learn corrective parenting skills for the therapist.
603: The Therapeutic Alliance
Using Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy to facilitate client
change. Unfocused listening – how to listen to
what the client is not saying that you need to know.
Using the “Internal Supervisor” – (your
inner guide to effective therapy work) to evaluate objectively
while also sharing subjectively the client’s process.
Developing an understanding of how the therapeutic relationship
is developed and maintained.
604: Refining the Tools of Humanistic Psychology for the
21st Century
Using Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs you will help clients
to understand and achieve their full potential in hypnotherapy.
We also cover: Rogerian Theory, Transactional Analysis,
Gestalt Theory and Practice, and using philosophical concepts
of Existentialism to help clients define a life purpose
beyond their presenting problem.
605: From Regression to Progression
All Hypnotherapists know how to fix the past. Now learn
to help clients discover and experience a clear path
to their future. They will learn to discover and resolve
every obstacle, every incremental step to this dynamic
future, using both the Future Self and rescue missions
for whichever inner child may be blocking each stage
of the client’s journey to fulfilment.
606: Archetypes and the Conference Room
Taking sub-personalities work down to the body and up to
the soul by incorporating Transactional Hypnoanalysis
and Alchemical Hypnotherapy methods of sub-personality
work. First help your clients to integrate mind and body
into a spiritual integrated self by developing awareness
of
our body’s different parts as archetypes within our
psychic makeup. Then we will integrate the Western tradition
of fairy tales as archetypes of our collective unconscious
with the Native
American tradition of animals as sources of wisdom and
power. By placing these figures around the conference room
table we experience sub-personality work at a deeper soul
level. We will also learn to deal with the issues of transition
and bereavement, which are an integral part of the human
condition.
