I would like to train as a hypnotherapist!
Unfortunately, these courses are not covered by the 24+ student loans.
Benefits advisor says they won't pay for a course unless i can guarantee to come off benefit and go self employed at end of it

Anyone have ideas where i can get funding or sponsorship?

Thanks

    Hi @reikilou do you think you could get much work as a trained hypnotherapist?

    Have you done some research and spoke to other hypnotherapists and seen what sort of money/work hours etc you could expect?

    I am now trained, I had to fund it myself. No help from anyone. I am confident I can earn money even if its limited.
