How to develop skills & confidence working with children of all ages. Children respond incredibly well to hypnosis and often benefit from learning techniques to help them overcome fears, control pain and enhance learning. This course has been developed by Carole, who has worked & taught at Great Ormond Street hospital, using hypnosis for children suffering from pain and phobias.

This course is intended for hypnotherapists who would like to understand more about the legal processes of Child Protection Law and Guidance, including the rights and duties of Hypnotherapists. The course is based on the premise that all children should be able to grow up in circumstances where they are safe and supported, so that they can achieve their optimal outcomes in childhood, their teenage years and into adulthood. To achieve this, agencies and practitioners should work together to promote children's welfare and to prevent them from suffering harm.

This masterclass is designed for hypnotherapists who wish to increase their skill base in depressive disorders.  Rates of depression are increasing annually and yet, according to Michael Yapko, in his book Hand-Me-Down Blues, it is one of the most treatable disorders.  Medication alone can never be an entirely adequate form of treatment but psychotherapy and hypnotherapy has been shown to be an effective intervention, whether used alongside traditional medication or as a stand-alone therapy.  This popular three-day course covers stress & depression, anxiety & depression, Trauma & PTSD, the significance of upbringing, both cognitive and hypnotic interventions and depression in childhood.  Recommended!

This approach, when first developed some 30 years ago, was unique in focussing on solutions, not problems. Although the techniques were drawn on offering a person-centred, non-judgemental approach, finding solutions was considered more important than offering explanations or looking at past problems.

Alongside the usual course manual and notes, you will get the chance to study the masters of Brief Therapy at work using DVDs, and to practice the techniques in class.
