Uncommon Psychotherapy is a clear and concise course which is really user friendly! The explanations are very easy to follow and assimilate. It has certainly given me more confidence in my own practice. Highly recommended.

The Uncommon Psychotherapy is the most important course I’ve done in personal development because it’s given me the knowledge and big picture of how the mind and nervous system work and how problems arise and the different ways to solve them. This course is what any Coach, NLP Practitioner or Hypnotherapist or Counsellor needs in the first place. IT IS A MUST. Thank you so much! I am strongly recommending it to all my colleagues!

I’m a nutritionist and health coach helping women overcome their struggle with weight, dieting and emotional eating. The Uncommon Psychotherapy Course provides a great background of helpful information about how and why people do what they do and how to help them change problematic behaviour patterns. The course is very comprehensive and interesting – and I had a lot of fun reading the examples and stories which I often share with my clients, too.

The Uncommon Psychotherapy course added to my already well equipped toolkit provided by Uncommon Knowledge courses. I highly recommend this course. It gives a thorough understanding of the brain and also how it can work in both a clever and dumb way in forming beliefs and patterns, allowing us to see why people do what they do even if it is destructive or not resourceful for them. The course also gave clear outlines and strategies for undertaking client therapy, addressing how to deal with many different situations and attitudes a client may bring to therapy, e.g. resistance. Great guidelines on how to find a client’s resources and how to use these resources to bring about positive change in a client. These examples are just a small snapshot of a very beneficial and comprehensive course. I am a better therapist because of it.

I have found the Uncommon Psychotherapy course to have some interesting tidbits and profound information that filled in some gaps of other training that I have received. It was interesting and educational as well as being presented in an easy format and convenient.

Most practitioners I have come across run micro businesses while only a few are involved with other practitioners and it’s a great opportunity to see how other people achieve results and to have some of the “behind the scenes” things explained. While reading about hypnosis and life coaching skills from a book is one thing, it is an entirely different thing when you have the client before you and you wonder where to from here. I appreciate it is absolutely imperative the client is always left feeling the client is in front of the expert and that the client has received some benefit from the experience and no matter what the level of expertise of the practitioner, there are always challenges. Uncommon Psychotherapy has given me some tools to handle this type of situation and I am really enjoying the experience.
Manon Wathier
I am a mental health Occupational Therapist. I wanted to gain skills in psychotherapy to assist my clients. This course did not disappoint. In fact, it went beyond my expectations! I learned so much! I need to review the notes to anchor my knowledge more. It was definitely worth doing and I highly recommend it!
Dr Max Coates
I have been an education lecturer with University College London for 15 years. My focus has been leadership in coaching and progressively I have been extending my remit. Many of the people that I work with in a coaching capacity have presented issues beyond the expected. The Uncommon Psychotherapy course has given my practice greater depth, integrated much of my thinking and importantly given me the confidence to respond to the unexpected, challenging and demanding. I started the course out of fascination but it is led to a whole new area of work for me. There is a real crisis in terms of well-being/mental health and I have found myself drawn in to developing a significant audit tool schools. The course has enabled me to develop this and I believe make a useful contribution to tackling this area. So my response to the course: delight, feeling challenged and above all else energised. Thank you.

Wow… what to say first. I suppose thank you! I’ve done this course over the period of a week and what a week it has been. Here is just the tip of my iceberg:
(1) I never realised what level of physical and mental stress I was operating at daily until I started to go deeper into a self-hypnosis practice (four days so far… feeling very good)
(2) I was previously helping a friend with PTSD to sleep as she was incredibly sensitive to distractions during the night (neighbours, snoring, things in the house that go bump [or creak])… but on a nightly basis. Thanks to this course and the confidence to expand my boundaries, I gave her a metaphorical story about a cute cat being terrified of the mailman, feeling bangs through the floor and sounds from outside… and then there was an wise owl on the windowsill saying “What are you doing?” and… well not enough space for the rest of the story, but needless to say it’s had amazing effect so far: three restful nights sleep with no assistance.
(3) This course has opened my eyes to self-improvement in a new way… where you really get to say, who do I want to be? how do I want to react? For me, I’m starting by choosing to connect to people I’ve too easily disconnected from, and designing the habits that keep me in touch with them out of genuine interest and care.
And just to top it off, my sense of humour flows quicker and I’m finding my creative mind is giving me new ways to look at things I’ve already experienced, things I’ve yet to experience in the physical form, and even things I’m experiencing in the face of strong emotion.
So, thank you Mark, thank you Roger and the excellent team you’re working with… this is an excellent course, even for the non-practitioner. I would strongly recommend this course to anyone who was focused on delivering therapeutic results safely and effectively.

I loved this course. Thanks so much. Mark, I love your ease with words – your grace with language and your ability to hone in on just what your clients need. That’s what I got most out of the course… how much more effective the process is when you throw away the script and listen to the client from the heart and head!
I’ve been doing intuitive readings for years via email and in person, and have had many clients tell me that something I said – or wrote – prompted tremendous change. Yet I still struggled to write a “perfect script” during my hypnosis sections and healing groups. Not any more. Thanks for opening my eyes to a “new way.” I am inspired by you (and Roger) as much as by the material itself and have made it my goal to develop the same conversational facility in hypnotherapy that you have over the next year or so.
I’ve had many hypnotherapy teachers over the year and always left the course feeling that something was missing, prompting me to read endlessly on my own. You were the first one to make me sit up and say, “YES! This is the way.” I’m working on my healing group flyer now and am inspired to move away from intuitive readings/alternative healing towards hypnosis largely thanks to all of the seeds that you planted. Kudos!
