Chrysalis Courses Online is brought to you by Chrysalis Not For Profit Limited. We understand that it can be quite overwhelming to make a big change in your life, especially when it has to do with your career. It can also be very expensive to re-train, and what if you’ve made the wrong decision?

This is why we developed our online offering - to introduce you to the world of therapy without any of the pressure or cost of a full professional course. You can take the first step into learning about a new exciting career, all from the comfort of your own home.

Our courses are Quality Checked and recognised by The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) or the National Hypnotherapy Society. The Societies hold Accredited Registers which are recognised by the Professional Standards Authority

What does this mean if you study with us? Our online courses in counselling or hypnotherapy can be your first step that, with further Chrysalis training, can lead you onto an Accredited Register. If you complete an online course you can get a 10% discount on future professional training.

With our Advanced Certificate in Life Coaching and Advanced Certificate in NLP, you are able to start practising straight away, on completion of your course.

Our online courses are unique because they have been written by qualified writers and tutors and are being brought to you by real experts in the field. You can therefore be confident that your course is well-written, well-researched and credible whilst being interactive and easy to understand. Unlike other distance learning providers who are a “jack of all trades”, we only offer courses in the subjects that we’re passionate about and which can make positive changes for our students.
