There are several very important issues to carefully consider before deciding to undertake this training program:

One of the most important things to consider before applying to do this course involves the practice of other health modalities.  If you already practice another method, this will NOT exclude you from training, however you should consider several things, very carefully:

For example, it is essential for you to focus your attention exclusively on learning this modality in order to become effective with P.S.H.  If you were just wanting this training to 'make you better' at your present modality, you would probably be wasting your time doing the course.  To think in terms of 'adding on to', or 'enhancing' another method, can result in divided attention and make effective learning impossible.  However, there is every chance that the knowledge and skills gained in this program will, in fact, help equip you better for other methods as well.

P.S.H. is not a therapy to 'mix and match' with other techniques.  The many subtleties involved in the philosophical framework simply do not blend with other known methods.  When P.S.H. is used in conjunction with other modalities, both methods can be rendered ineffective.  This does not mean we expect you to abandon your other methods.  It is usually very important however, to use P.S.H. on its own with any given client.  When the situation is diagnosed correctly, P.S.H. is usually all that is required to bring about the desired results.

P.S.H. is not a therapy for those who need to 'get inside their client's head' and it is not a therapy for those who need to have a sense of 'power' over their clients.  P.S.H. is a model which gives clients total privacy to make their own changes.  Although many other therapies claim to, P.S.H. is a technique that actually does 'empower' the client.  It is a 'client-centered', rather than a 'therapist-centered' model.

P.S.H. is not a therapy to boost the therapist's ego.  True subconscious healing often takes place in such a way the person does not realise or acknowledge that therapy has been responsible for initiating the changes.  Such changes are in fact, commonly the most profound and enduring.

If you are already committed to a particular model or method for people to gain 'wellness' and self-actualisation, and are not prepared to be flexible in your attitudes, you should possibly  re-consider training in P.S.H.  This method is designed explicitly to help clients make their own changes in their own best ways.

It is a widely accepted notion that many people find themselves drawn to the various areas of professional health care in an unconscious (and sometimes conscious) attempt to find answers to their own problems.  This may be particularly so in the case of psychological therapies in general, and perhaps even more particularly in the case of the various subconscious-mind therapies.

We suggest you examine your motives very carefully in this regard.

It is unlikely that any personal issues would be permanently corrected as a result of participation in this practitioner training program.  It is not a 'self-help' course.  We do acknowledge however, that many of our most successful students sought training - after experiencing the life-changing results of their own P.S.H. therapy.

As it is not considered ethical for trainers to work with students on a professional, consultative basis, we recommend that if you have personal issues to address, you seek professional help from an independent P.S.H. therapist before commencing your training.

There are several written and recorded assignments to be completed during the program.  Students receive the first three assignments at the conclusion of module one and the remainder, at module two.  All assignments must be completed by the scheduled dates, in order for the student to continue in the program.  The recorded assignments are made while working with clients who have agreed to have their sessions recorded.

It is essential that all assignments be received by their due dates.  Sometimes, under extenuating circumstances a special extension of time may be granted.

It is also necessary for students to read several books during the course of the program.  Although a recommended list is provided, in many cases, book selection is (with the trainers' approval), at the student's discretion.  There is usually a small extra cost involved for the purchase of books, which is not included in the course fees.

It is vital that students allocate the necessary time to fully attend all parts of all training modules, and fulfil all obligations of the course.  It is almost impossible to 'catch-up' on time missed during the training sessions and no part of the curriculum can be repeated to cater for late or non-attendance.

Full attendance of all modules is required for graduation.

Intending students are strongly advised to register for a course, only when they are capable and willing to put the necessary time aside to focus their attention on the program. (See next item.)

In addition to the time spent attending each module, most students require the equivalent of approximately one to two days per week (average) to complete home assignments and the required practical work.

In the event of it being impossible to continue the entry course, arrangements can usually be made to defer and enter the following program at the commencement of the appropriate module.  In these cases, extra fees may be incurred.  It should be noted that we only conduct a course when numbers warrant it and we cannot guarantee a follow-up program would be immediately available.
