Nationwide
Human Givens Diploma is a highly practical psychotherapy course that has been revolutionising the successful treatment, understanding and prevention of the mental and emotional health issues that affect all human beings for more than 20 years.
HG is the only form of psychotherapy to unify 100s of counselling models into one common language – view benefits of the approach:
A highly effective alternative to drug treatments.
Typically gets faster results in 1–2 sessions instead of the average 4.
People come from all over the world to take the Diploma course.
The knowledge and skills you will gain are widely applicable and students often say they have benefitted personally too.
All Human Givens Therapists on our Professional Register, which is accredited in the UK by the Professional Standards Authority (which is the same organisation that accredits BACP and the UKCP) have completed the Diploma up to Part 3 level. The HG Diploma is a recognised part of the SCoPEd national training framework for counselling and psychotherapy. As such, the training is formally recognised by the SCoPEd partners: BACP, UKCP, NCPS, BPC, HGI and ACC. All newly qualified therapists start in Column A, and can transition to Column B and Column C through SCoPEd approved routes, should they wish to do so.
The Human Givens Institute (HGI) is both a membership organisation and a professional body.
The membership organisation is open to anyone who is studying or applying human givens insights and understandings, in psychotherapy, education, public and private sector organisations and elsewhere, or is simply keen to support and be part of the development and spread of the human givens approach.
The professional body represents the interests of those in the caring, welfare and teaching professions who have trained in the human givens approach, working in alignment with the best scientific knowledge available about the givens of human nature.
Thousands of people around the world recognise that the organising ideas succinctly expressed in the phrase 'human givens' have enormous, beneficial implications for education, mental health, social cohesion and the worlds of business, politics and diplomacy.
The HGI is associated with the Human Givens College, the official teaching establishment for this approach, and all successful graduates of the College are invited to join as professional members. (There are various levels of membership.) The professional section advances all aspects of human givens therapeutic practice, including standards, CPD and the ethical behaviour of members.
