HG Diploma

The Human Givens Diploma

The Human Givens graduate and post-graduate diploma course is widely considered the UK’s premier psychotherapy skills qualification.

It is specially designed for those in the counselling, psychotherapy, psychiatric and medical professions who wish to be more effective when treating depression, self-harming, anxiety disorders (including OCD, PTSD and phobias), anger, addictions, eating disorders, psychosis, relationship problems and chronic pain.

But, because the course deals with fundamental issues that affect all human beings; social workers, education psychologists, teaching professionals and business coaches have also found it hugely beneficial in their work.

Overview:

All diploma course students learn powerful brief counselling interventions that are consistently effective as well as the fundamental body of knowledge about psychology and mind/body functioning upon which they are based;

The course is both skills-based and supported by scientific research – all skills are demonstrated by the tutors;

There is no requirement for personal counselling or psychotherapy for students on this course as research shows this is unnecessary and does not make for better counselling;

The course tutors are practitioners, with proven teaching expertise, who have contributed to the development of effective psychotherapy;

The course is part-time and can be done at your own pace and convenience, at a variety of locations around the country;

The diploma is externally assessed by the British Accreditation Council (BAC) and is supported by Primary Care Mental Health & Education (PRIMHE), which is affiliated with the Royal College of General Practitioners. It is accredited by the European Therapy Studies Institute (ETSI), which was founded in 1992 to bring more objectivity into the field;

Graduates have their own professional membership body, the Human Givens Institute (HGI).

“I can't speak highly enough of the Human Givens Diploma course. It had all the elements to make it challenging, stretching, stimulating and, above all, thoroughly practical. I feel I have the skills to make a difference, whilst knowing I have the enjoyment to come of honing and developing them over time. An exciting prospect.”
Psychotherapist

“I have learnt more in ten days here, than two years of Higher Education. Pass or fail, I will take so much from this course, which is useful, practical, and understandable. The whole experience was very enjoyable.”
Senior Care Worker

“No other course of post-graduate training has influenced and changed my clinical practice more than studying for the HG Diploma. It’s changed the way I think about, and approach, healthcare.”
