At NCHP We Have Been Training and Accrediting Therapists for Over 45 Years.

If you are looking for accredited training to become a registered psychotherapist, psychotherapeutic counsellor or hypnotherapist, you are in the right place.

Whether you’re looking for a new career, are a therapist wishing to add new skills, or simply love to learn we can help you. Once welcomed onto your pathway, you will have access to hands-on practical and academic training and resources designed to guide and support you from first contact until qualification and beyond.

At The National College of Hypnosis and Psychotherapy we believe in helping people to help people. We believe that mental health is a human right and not a privilege and we’re driven by the hope that the therapists we train will be part of making that change.

We can help you

Since 1977 we’ve trained therapists to the highest standards available and we accredit our graduates with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC). We support and guide you on the rewarding journey to becoming a therapist because we understand the process, academically, practically and personally, having made that journey ourselves.

Our content is created by a Higher Education Academy recognised team and meets UKCP standards, our course tutors are all experienced practising therapists who place supported practical learning at the heart of your training.

We have a plan

Our training is designed to educate, motivate, and empower you to help people make effective changes using ethical and professional methods. We align our teaching and support to respect diversity and the challenges you may face whether your intention is to change career or not. Flexibility is built-in to make your transition smooth.

As an NCHP student you can be assured that you are part of our professional family, a collegiate and supportive environment centred on your well-being and empowering you to develop the therapeutic skills and confidence to achieve your goals and potential both personally and professionally.
