Corsebar Hypnotherapy - Practitioner Level Training in Clinical Hypnotherapy
Corsebar Hypnotherapy - Practitioner Level Training in Clinical Hypnotherapy
 
 
 

The Scottish School of Hypnotherapy provides students with the knowledge, confidence and competence to become effective clinical hypnotherapists.

‘Courses offered at the SSH are comprehensive. Supervised, practical training ensures that graduates are equipped not only to utilise suggestion therapy, but to implement and manage hypnoanalytical techniques also.

Training in hypnoanalysis should be a fundamental part of any hypnotherapy course as it involves development of skills essential for anyone who may choose to practice as a hypnotherapist.’

Located in Glendaruel, a timeless, romantic glen on the Cowal peninsula, the school offers highly accredited courses at Practitioner level and Postgraduate.

The training is held in the comfort of what was originally a farmhouse, built in 1860, though parts date back to the 16th Century.

The original dairy and steadings have been converted into welcoming apartments, 4* Standard, where students can relax and study.

TRAINING

The training is carried out by fully experienced tutors, supplemented by specialist lecturers and visiting practising hypnotherapists.

As a senior lecturer, Kate participated heavily in curriculum and assessment procedure development and the maintenance of educational standards within the establishments in which she worked.

She also worked as an external course and unit verifier and on course validation panels for the Scottish Qualifications Authority.

Personal experience of the effectiveness of hypnotherapy resulted in a change of career. Training under Vicki Watson, Founder member of the NSPH, Kate qualified as a clinical hypnotherapist and in 1999 formed in partnership with John McEwen, Corsebar Hypnotherapy Centre, now B9 Hypnotherapy, Argyll.

In 2004, she was privileged to take over the training remit for the NSPH and continues to uphold the high standards of training demanded by the Society and other accrediting bodies.

JOHN MCEWEN MNSPH, SQHP, MNCP

  • Member of the National Society of Professional Hypnotherapists (MNSPH)
  • Senior Qualified Hypnotherapist - General Hypnotherapy Register (SQHP)
  • Member of the National Council of Psychotherapists (MNCP)
  • Former Chairman of the Advisory Council of the NSPH
  • Partner and practising hypnotherapist at B9 Hypnotherapy, Argyll
  • Director of the Scottish School of Hypnotherapy Ltd


Over his working life John gained extensive experience in both industry and commerce, but significantly, for over twenty-two years worked in the Scottish Ambulance Service, most of that time functioning as a Senior Officer, in a variety of roles and at many different locations.

During this time, John was in charge of the Service's response to some of the worst disasters in Scotland, in recent years. Experience gained at tragedies, such as Lockerbie and Dunblane and the rail crashes at Belgrove and Newton has meant that John came to be recognised as an expert on Disaster Management, and its consequences.

In sharing this experience with others, John was a regular external lecturer at the Home Office Emergency Planning College at Easingwold and less frequently at University College London and Keele University.

Growing out of this experience, and with substantial and prolonged access to those workers in emergency services who had been exposed, not only to major disasters, but also to the endless small, personal tragedies which is the day to day duty of Paramedics and others, John became interested in clinical hypnosis primarily as a tool which might help to "treat" Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). John trained with Vicki Watson at the then Twa Acres Hypnotherapy Training Centre in Blairgowrie, and, after graduation, set up in full time practice with Kate Scott, at Corsebar Hypnotherapy.

John was also a former member and Chairman of the Advisory Council of the National Society of Professional Hypnotherapists (NSPH).

VICKI WATSON RGN FNSPH FNCP MGHR SQHP

The original Twa Acres Clinical Hypnotherapy Training Centre was founded by Vicki Watson in 1978 with the Clinical Hypnotherapy Training Course, as a natural progression, coming into existence in 1989.

Vicki had spent over twenty years in general and intensive care nursing as a registered general nurse, before finally deciding to make her long standing involvement in hypnotherapy known and, having completed a training course in England, began practicing as a Clinical Hypnotherapist.

Many years previously as a young student nurse Vicki was privileged to witness hypnosis being instrumental in helping save a young girl's life. This triggered her interest in the subject and encouraged extensive study into the phenomena of hypnosis as a very effective treatment modality.

Vicki's contribution to hypnotherapy and its uses is such that, apart from being interviewed on local and national Radio & Television, Vicki has been guest speaker at Dundee University Medical Society Annual Symposium and Abertay University. She also had a number of articles on hypnotherapy published in various magazines including Scottish Nurse.

She lectured on a regular basis to student nurses at the University of Dundee School of Nursing & Midwifery and to Perth Palliative Care Course nurses on the role hypnosis can play in the control of chronic pain in the Health Service.
