Professional Psychotherapy
In this age of increasing stress, studying psychotherapy can help you to help people understand the reasons behind maladaptive behaviours and support them towards leading happier, healthier and more productive lives.
Unresolved trauma or issues often result in negative patterns of behaviour. Psychotherapy helps you understand how stress affects physical, mental and emotional health.
We encourage all readers to study the course thoroughly to obtain an in-depth understanding of all aspects, so you are able to utilise your knowledge to help as many people as possible. Studying this course will help you address a wide variety of problems, including stress, anxiety, depression and eating disorders.

- How psychotherapy helps people resolve inner conflict and how they benefit from seeing a professional psychotherapist
- How the brain affects our thoughts, and understanding the different parts of the brain and how they impact our behaviour and thinking
- The differences between the conscious and subconscious mind and how they work together in our day-to-day lives
- How stress affects emotions, ability to rationalise and patterns of thinking, and how clients react to different stresses
- The different types of affective disorders, and you will be able to differentiate between one-off emotions and psychological conditions
Benefits of the Course
Studying a professional psychotherapy course can help you in several ways, including:
- Understand how to offer your own psychotherapy services with one-to-one or group therapy sessions

My son has Aspergers Syndrome, so when this course Autism Awareness Diploma came up with 90% off just after Christmas, I thought I would like to do it. There was no pressure on myself and progressed at my own pace, the course is very informative with lots of hints and tips. The process of going through the Modules and assignments was also very easy to do. The cost of the course was expensive if I hadn't had 90% off. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending New Skills Academy courses to other people for their informative and ease of usage. I really enjoyed it.

If your looking for a refresher or new career then this is a Fantastic site for courses. This is the second course I’ve done on this site and there very in depth and I’ve learnt so much. Very pleased. Would highly recommend.
Will be looking to do more courses in the future. Not only have I achieved two diplomas but I’ve got new services to offer in my salon for all my clients. Great time of year to have completed with christmas around the corner, my salons never been so busy and even taken bookings for 2017 already.
Would recommend to all!

I took it up in myself to take this course as I am wanting to get on the personal trainer business. I found this course to be really insightful and beneficial.
As well as providing the information needed for health care professionals in the Fitness industry, it also provides the information you might be interested in to take your career further. Such as qualifications you can take afterwards to specialise in a specific area in the Fitness industry.
If you want an informative course that gives you a little extra, this is perfect for you. If you would like the bare minimum, then this course isn’t for you.
