Sandra our tutor for year 2 has been so supportive and helpful and brings passion and knowledge in abundance. She shares so much and her feedback is thorough and thoughtful and so helpful. She's been amazing and I'm excited to continue the second half of the year and progress onto year three. Thank you so much to the staff behind the scenes and placements team too for always being ready to answer queries and help where they can.
I have found crystals to be great training Especially silly with Melanie Phelps, great teacher
I have been with chrysalis for 2.5 yrs, my 1st year was enjoyable, with a great tutor, my 2nd year not so much, however, on year 3 1st session in January, my current tutor gave me structure, with slideshows & video clips to explain in more depth and giving examples of the different topics, I have thoroughly enjoyed my first 5 modules as I am a visual learner, the guidance given is great by Sarah Jones and she is a real fit for our group, I am looking forward to the rest of my final year with Chrysalis
I have had a great experience training with Chrysalis. The pluralistic content of the course has been very interesting and I believe has put me in good stead for my future as a counsellor. Most beneficial to my experience though is my tutor, Martina. Martina is incredibly knowledgeable, always puts us at ease, fills us with confidence and gives valuable feedback.

Jonathan is a excellent tutor and always reachable outside of class time. He has been an excellent support. I do feel the course could be cut to 1 year and it would be beneficial if more placement supports were available as I felt myself and many students were left to their own devices to apply and compete for a very limited number of placements in the areas. The in class practice is a waste of time in my personal opinion and the time could be better used for reflective practice in small groups outside of the classroom on the grounds.

My experience with Chrysalis has been extremely positive. The course is well-structured, with a strong balance between theory and practical skills, and provides a safe space to explore sensitive topics essential for counselling work. A big part of this positive experience has been the support from my tutor, Jonathan Broad. His professional, caring, and encouraging approach has made the learning journey much smoother. He explains complex topics clearly, creates a supportive atmosphere in class, and is always approachable for guidance when needed. Thanks to Chrysalis I feel well-prepared and confident as I continue my development as a counsellor.

The sessions and content are good as is the venue. The timing and location suit my needs, which is why I chose the course in Peterborough. Our tutor, Julie Morley uses her experience and knowledge to challenge and guide us through the content in a way that makes it clear and full of ‘eureka’ moments.

Julie is an outstanding and professional tutor who consistently provides positive, constructive, and informative feedback. Her extensive knowledge and inclusive teaching style have greatly supported my learning journey. Through her guidance, I’ve gained not only a deeper understanding of the subject matter but also the confidence to persevere, even during my most challenging times. Julie’s support has truly been a source of strength and motivation. I’m incredibly grateful for her dedication and encouragement.

Currently a second year student with Chrysalis. My first year was focussed on Hypnotherapy and at the start I was unsure of how I would feel about this however I found that I really enjoyed it and I am a complete convert. Our tutor, Faye Hatch was excellent, enabling us to understand the process and supported us during our studies. With Faye’s support and guidance I was able to witness for myself how effective hypnotherapy can be. I am now looking forward to using my hypnotherapy skills with clients.

I recently completed the Hypnotherapy training with Chrysalis Courses and have had a very positive experience overall. One of the key strengths of the course is the flexibility it offers—there’s a strong emphasis on self-directed learning, which worked well for me. At the same time, the tutor's support was excellent, providing a great balance between independence and guidance. My tutor, Ciela Hintz, was an exceptional mentor—deeply knowledgeable in both hypnotherapy and psychotherapy, and she delivered the curriculum in a highly engaging and dynamic way. She connected with students on a deeper level and went the extra mile by offering additional resources and support. Her guidance helped me stay focused and confident in my learning, and I now feel well-prepared to begin my professional journey in hypnotherapy, as I currently continue my studies with Chrysalis in psychotherapeutic counselling. My second year, so far, is going well, and I’m pleased with the depth and structure of the training. In addition, the student support team is quite efficient, and I felt well supported every time I needed them. I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 simply because there’s always room for improvement in the course structure or materials. That said, I wholeheartedly recommend Chrysalis to anyone seeking a strong and supportive foundation in hypnotherapy and psychotherapeutic counselling training.

Currently a second year student with Chrysalis. Although the first year based on hypnotherapy and counselling core skills was interesting, the hypnotherapy was not something I intended to take forward as a career and therefore was dis-interesting at times. That said, my second year focused solely on counselling with Julie Morley as a tutor has been great. Engaging content and conversations brought forward into the classroom by Julie's extensive experience. Highly rated and I am looking forward to qualifying with the knowledge, tools and experience gained from the course.

My tutor Julie Morley is so approachable. She makes the face to face part of the course informative and enjoyable. She gives in depth feedback to assignments which has given me confidence to continue. Any questions in between she is more than happy to discuss. I’m really enjoying the course.
