    Thanks, Mark and Joe. I really enjoyed this course. It ratified and explained a lot about hypnotic phenomena that I’ve observed and used during my time as a hypnotherapist. It also clarified many issues for me which I’ve questioned regarding approaches that I’ve come across in the myriad of books that I’ve collected over the years – many of which I no longer require.

    You’ve made the whole process of hypnotherapy so much more credible and usable by providing explanations of tools and a structure in which to use them. Thank you so much for bringing the knowledge and research together. I feel more validated and have a well grounded set of expectations around the outcomes of therapy as a result of the courses I’ve taken with Uncommon Knowledge. In fact, you’ve helped me overcome a huge anxiety regarding the efficacy of hypnotherapy. I can now put successes and failures into a better perspective and give anxiety the boot.

    As I continue to develop new skills and discover new applications, having knowledge about more precise techniques and practices is invaluable. Working through the course material has also helped with confidence. I look forward to revisiting the material from time to time to strengthen my skill and decision-making about when to use the skills.

    Precision Hypnosis is my third course with the wonderful Uncommon Knowledge and it’s been a great investment in my ongoing professional development. I have almost completed the How to Lift Depression Fast course now, as sudden onset health issues put me out of the picture for most of last year. I have a diploma and certificate in hypnotherapy along with a background in psychology and have been self employed for three years now as a counsellor, life coach, and hypnotherapist.

    I have found the courses at Unk to be so much better in terms of content than those I paid $1000’s for. I look forward to completing the Precision Hypnosis course very soon as the therapy, demonstrations, and use of hypnotic language by Mark and his team is second to none. The course content and materials are excellent and very detailed and the courses are structured in such a way that the information is easy to learn and implement. Highly recommended.

    It’s great to learn skills that you can start implementing straight away instead of just theory.

    I have been practising as a therapist for around 9 years now and during that time, I’ve done a number of courses both online and in person. The Precision Hypnosis course has to be one of the best courses I’ve done so far and is very different to many of the other online or distance learning courses available.

    The quality and quantity of information provided, variety of subjects covered, support, advice and interaction make it very interesting and informative, whilst being enjoyable too. I liked the way that although it was an online course, there are real people behind it as well as real feedback and interaction. Although I was away for the live Q&A calls, I listened to them afterwards and found those really useful too. Many online courses are quite faceless and impersonal, so I think the contact and interaction aspects of this (and other Uncommon Knowledge courses) is what sets it apart.

    I’ve always believed that you learn something new everyday, no matter whether you’re newly qualified or experienced. I certainly learned some really useful things from this course and would definitely recommend it.

    I have loved this course, thank you so much. It has been really engaging and accessible. I feel much more confident and adventurous and am beginning now to utilise some of my new learning in practice. I will keep going back into the material as it is so helpful to revisit and get a bit more each time!

    Thank you so much for a very informative, useful, and well-constructed course. This is my first online learning experience and I can’t praise it enough. It’s been so engaging that I almost feel I’ve attended an actual ‘live’ course. I’ve really valued your responses to my questions through the message boards and the Q&A sessions have added that extra personal touch.

    I feel that my skills as a clinical hypnotherapist have been greatly enhanced by the Precision Hypnosis course and I’ve been so impressed that I’ve also signed up for the Stop Smoking course (which is also living up to expectation).

    Precision Hypnosis and the previous course that I completed, Uncommon Hypnosis, have really done wonders for me both as a person and as a hypnotist. I feel much better about life; it’s as if I gained some insight which makes me philosophical and at ease with the world (if that is possible!). Precision Hypnosis taught me so much about why people are the way they are, that I now walk about observing certain types and know exactly what could be done to alleviate their fears, phobias and unwanted habits. The best way I can say a big ‘thank you’ to Uncommon Knowledge is to take another of their courses, which of course I will do in the near future. Thanks to Mark and the team for a quality product of the highest professional standard.

    I’m VERY happy you allow non-therapists to take this class because it has helped greatly in many areas of life. I volunteer for hospice and it is astonishing how powerful hypnotic language can be … for the patient and family members. Hypnotic language was also very useful with neighbors who didn’t want to cut down their tree that was hit by lightning and about to fall into our home! (Haha, they just cut it down! Nothing like hypnotic language in an email!) Lastly, I have seen a therapist or two over the years and should I ever feel the need to pursue that path again, I would insist on a therapist who knows how to use hypnosis.

    I love the Uncommon Hypnotherapy course. I really like how Mark and Roger have structured the program, with lots of reading material, simple and easy to understand explanations, and very useful video demonstrations. What I like most about them is that there are no frills, I find them to be very integrous and the expertise in their work and intent comes across. I have recommended their courses to many… Absolutely worth it.

    “I was certified in 2000 by a school that taught the “National Guild of Hypnotists” (NGH) agenda. I enjoyed the classes but felt that much of the training was too close to stage hypnotist techniques.

    “During one class, the guest instructor used a different approach — a permissive induction, similar to the techniques you teach. I fell into a much deeper trance than I had when our regular instructors used a more authoritarian approach. Instead of feeling badgered and intimidated into a trance, this guest instructor seduced me into a trance. In fact, I felt myself going so deeply that I pulled back a bit, apprehensive about unchartered territory.

    “At the end of the entire course, even though I had a certificate in hand that said I was a certified hypnotherapist, I knew that my training had just begun. Since then, I’ve focused my study on those “Eriksonian” techniques that my school merely touched upon but intrigued me the most.

    “My never-ending quest brought me to your online school via your sister site– hypnosisdownloads.com. (I had already found that site to be a wealth of information.) I’ve really enjoyed your course — Mark and Jill are great teachers. You’ve helped me understand the thought and reasons behind the tools and techniques — not just what to do, but why.

    “I’ll still be learning from your study materials for some time, as I go over this information again and again. I like your multi-media approach to teaching — videos, audio files, written materials. In particular, I think the “Hypnosis Unwrapped” DVDs were the cornerstone of the course.

    “Much of the other materials emphasized and expanded on these videos. Actually being able to watch Jill and Mark teach classes, plus intros and summaries from Roger, was worth the price of the course.”
