Diploma Course
The Human Givens Diploma is a highly practical psychotherapy course that is revolutionising the successful treatment, understanding and prevention of the mental and emotional health issues that affect all human beings.
- The only form of psychotherapy to unify over 160 counselling models into one common language – view benefits of the approach
- A highly effective alternative to drug treatments
- Faster results in 1–2 sessions instead of the average 4 [1]
All Human Givens Therapists on our Professional Register, which is accredited in the UK by the Professional Standards Authority (which is the same organisation that accredits BACP and the UKCP) have completed the Diploma up to Part 3 level.
