Understanding the DSM-5 (AHC - Master Class)

Karen Phillip is one of Australia's leading Psychotherapist and Clinical Hypnotherapist. She runs a busy Central Coast/Lake Macquarie practice in NSW and works with people around the world. Her experience and qualifications are of the highest standard and she is also a trainer and supervisor of peers. Karen conducts workshops here and overseas.

Karen and her husband Wayne decided to start the Australian Hypnotherapy College after speaking to many graduates struggling to make a living as a therapist. It was hearing so many disappointing stories of how students were unprepared to step out professionally when they finished training, that prompted Karen to start higher quality and broader training to ensure all students were fully prepared and confident in their ability to start a successful practice.

The Quit Smoking and Weight Loss Master Class training teaches students to use the innovative Phillip Method to ensure not only client success but success for the therapist as they build their reputation as a professional and successful hypnotherapist specialising in helping people achieve their desired goal.
