Training Course Profile

We (Rory and Kate) are two UK-based international hypnotherapy trainers and have been teaching hypnotherapy together for a number of years. We have taught thousands of people to use hypnosis (for various applications) all around the world, at live training courses, events, webinars and via phone/Skype, together with presenting on hypnosis at international conferences.

As well as teaching others, as professional practitioners ourselves, we have helped thousands of people across the UK (and internationally).

We specialise in all aspects of professional hypnotherapy training, and are constantly striving to ensure that all of the techniques we teach (and the strategies we use to teach them) are of the highest quality, meaning that everything we do is delivered to the best possible standard.

We pride ourselves on the fact that our evidence-based cutting-edge course contentis highly functional and practical. This enables you to integrate all of the knowledge that you learn into your own hypnotherapy practice, offering the best possible solution for your prospective clients, and optimising your highest chance of success in any given situation. Whilst highly practical, our certification training also has strong academic grounding, so students receive an all-round qualification that ties theory and practice together neatly and effectively.

We are passionate about all things hypnosis, because, for us, hypnosis is more than just a “job” – it’s a lifestyle. This passion comes across in our training, and we take pride in the knowledge that we are amongst the very best hypnotherapy trainers in the world, and always getting better!

Dr Kate Beaven-Marks is an energetic and enthusiastic hypnotherapy trainer, with a cumulative theoretical and practical knowledge of hypnosis that would be difficult to surpass. Her passion for the subject goes above and beyond anything seen with your run-of-the-mill hypnotherapy trainers. She is an exceptionally talented expert in the field of hypnosis.

As well as being a first-class hypnotherapist, Kate is also a professionally trained teacher and has various highlyrespected professional endorsements, such as: Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine, not to mention, a Certified Instructor (CI) with the National Guild of Hypnotists…

Kate has a Doctorate of Education, based upon the educational aspects of hypnosis from a professionalism perspective. As part of the research for her Doctorate, she completed training with 200+ international hypnosis and hypnotherapy training providers, and has a personal library of hypnosis-related books that would make even the most avid enthusiast rather jealous. This makes her one of the most well-rounded, highly qualified hypnotherapy trainers in the UK today.

Rory Z Fulcher has a wonderfully diverse background and over the last few years, his name has become very well-known in the hypnosis world. Leaving college (with a Diploma in Music), Rory came to decide that he’d never quite make it as a rock star, and so began his journey into the wilderness of “real life” at the age of 18.

After picking up a basic “how-to-do-hypnosis” book at the book store, Rory initially learned hypnotherapy by trial-anderror. By going out and “having a go”, he began to help to make positive changes to the lives of his friends and family (and himself). Having then taken numerous courses whilst in constant practice, his passion for hypnotherapy grew and grew, yet the “performer” inside wanted a little more… Naturally he turned to stage and street hypnosis, which allowed him to entertain, whilst continuing to help people along the way.

Years later, and with even more passion as when he started, Rory continues to live and breathe hypnosis. He is a successful author (with a number of books about hypnosis), a world-class hypnosis trainer, and is a highly respected and widely sought-after international speaker. Rory’s training style is highly practical, fun and very “hands-on” because let’s face it, when you’re the Rock Star of Hypnosis, you’ve got to put on a show!

Many hypnotherapy schools have numerous trainers of varying skill/experience levels, so often you never really know if your trainers are any good. ALL of our courses are taught by both Dr Kate and Rory Z exclusively, meaning our students are able to benefit from our decades of hypnotherapy knowledge and our dramatically different backgrounds and experience.

You deserve to know that your trainers are some of the best in the industry and with us, that comes as standard!
