The forerunner of the I.C.S.T.R. (QLD) P.S.H. Practitioner Training Program was first taught in 1990. Experience has clearly shown that no particular academic, experiential or professional background has proved necessary in determining a trainee's proficiency as a P.S.H. therapist.
An applicant's attitude and commitment is far more important in becoming a successful P.S.H. therapist than ANY formal credentials.
People from many walks of life have now successfully trained as P.S.H. therapists. Past and current students include people with no prior experience in any professional capacity, through to nurses and midwives, doctors, psychologists, hypnotherapists, occupational health workers, counsellors, natural therapists and many others.
A growing number of therapists are embracing the P.S.H. approach as they discover the results are so often superior to their current or previous methods.
This course is specifically designed for people who have a genuine interest in becoming effective, professional 'people helpers'. It is not a 'self help' course and it is not for those with only a 'passing' or 'self interest'. It is explicitly designed as a 'vocational training program'.
It is essential that students are 'well centred', congenial individuals, with a natural predisposition to high ethical and moral standards.
Successful completion of the program requires a dedicated commitment. In addition to the time spent in the training modules, there are several written home assignments to complete and home (or clinic) practise to be carried out.
There is a considerable amount of reading and written work involved in the home assignments, theoretical and written assessment sections of the program. The equivalent of 'year 12' secondary educational level is generally considered a minimum requirement. Others will be considered on a case by case basis.
We do not expect students to abandon other modalities or methods they may currently utilise. However, when P.S.H. is indicated and used correctly, it is usually very important to use it on its own, in any given therapeutic intervention. P.S.H. does not lend itself to 'mixing & matching' with other techniques.
Graduates are encouraged to join the Australasian Subconscious-mind Therapists' Association (ASTA). Membership of the Association requires continuing self-development and professional education, in the form of workshops, seminars and appropriate external education programs.
Intending students should be fully prepared to give their best efforts and have a genuine desire to attend and complete all training modules and required course work. Although the school cannot force participants to practise professionally, the entire program is structured with this goal in mind. Those who demonstrate a genuine initiative and enthusiasm, receive all the support and assistance necessary to successfully complete the program and become professional practitioners.
