Mutual Support for Therapists

Blog post written for the UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy

I’ve recently written a blog post for the UK College of Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy (UKCHH) website on the benefits for therapists in attending a peer support group - Mutual Support for Therapists. As we come to the end of Mental Health Awareness week, it is important to recognise the value of those who provide support to others also being supported, practically and emotionally. Ongoing peer support and supervision also ensures therapists maintain and enhance their adherence to professional standards.

I've been running the peer support group on behalf of UKCHH now for the last two and a half years. We meet quarterly, bringing together a diverse group of 3-12 people who have all trained in Hypno-CBT® - the Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (Dip CBH) - with the UK College. If you’re trained in Hypno-CBT®, and interested in attending the group, do get in touch to find out more.

I’m also a GHR Acknowledged Supervisor and happy to discuss possible supervision arrangements with other hypnotherapists trained in cognitive behavioural models of hypnotherapy.
