Our aim is to coach you to be the best therapist you can be.

Whether you wish to set up in practice, self develop or just have a useful skillset at your disposal, this course is for you. Robert's approach is respectful and his consideration for others and honest approach is nothing short of exceptional. - 
Adam Bucklow (Qualified November 2019) 



 I completed the Clinical Hypnosis and Mind Coaching course At the Transformations School of Clinical Hypnosis with Robert, and I have to say it is the best course I have ever done. I was not only taught about the wonderful subject of hypnotherapy but also learnt a lot about myself, allowing me to continue in this field as a vocation, enabling me to help people in all walks of life.  The classes are small which is great as each individual is an integral part of the group, no one gets left behind.  Our group was and still are fantastic, we helped and learnt from each other and are still doing that having set up a social media group for continued support.  We also have the added bonus of support from Robert and I know this will always be available as long as we want it. I would recommend this course to anyone who is considering studying in this field, it’s changed my life. - 
Bridget Turner, Newark

Qualified May 2019 - Mike, Claire, Valeria and Pip

The course has proved to be an excellent introduction to Hypnotherapy and Mind Coaching and has equipped me with a solid understanding of many therapeutic techniques. Robert is a very approachable, supportive and engaging tutor who explains key concepts really clearly. I found it particularly helpful when he demonstrated some of those techniques, sharing his practical expertise with us. I look forward to going to the Peer Group meetings to keep up to date with the latest practices in Hypnotherapy. Thank you very much for a very enjoyable course.

 I think doing your course was the best decision I ever made!

- Emma Madeley, Notts

I have never known a more helpful, accommodating, dedicated tutor ever. This course has not just set me up for a whole new business change, it has changed my life completely and help me discover myself too! I cannot thank you enough Robert! 

- Mandy Jackson, Derby

Robert's patient teaching style and ongoing supplement would be difficult to equal. Joining the course is one of the best decisions I've made.

- Shayne Rice, Nottingham

 From the teaching to the syllabus and course material, I found the course thorough, professional and highly enjoyable.  There was much opportunity to discuss the material and practice new skills with the tutor and the group so there was a good balance of theory and practice.  The best course I've ever taken! 

Helen Falconer, Nottingham

This course was a revelation, I learned a huge amount across a wide range of concepts. Robert McKinnon really practices what he preaches through his small group practical sessions with open discussion gently led by him. An excellent tutor with great results! A great foundation for a future in Mind Coaching and Clinical Hypnotherapy
