Knowing how to use it well can make all the difference to a successful therapeutic outcome. Paying attention to the language we use is central to the human givens approach to therapy and counselling: our choice of words is crucial in building rapport with people, learning more about someone – their unique qualities and abilities – in listening and responding, in providing motivation and in collaborating to agree goals and strategies for the effective resolution of their problems. The careful use of language is essential for other areas of life too: at work, home, with family and friends – and this  2-day course is accessible to all. It can be taken as part of the Human Givens Diploma or as a stand-alone course. You will gain a solid foundation in the most effective brief solution-focused strategies and language skills that are essential if you want to be able to help people as quickly as possible. By distilling the essence of proven brief therapy approaches and working in tune with the givens of human nature, outcomes can be dramatically improved and suffering successfully reduced. You will also learn how any team of professional healthcare workers can safely incorporate brief therapy techniques into their work with patients suffering from depression, anxiety, panic attacks, PTSD, anger, OCD, eating disorders, addiction and relationship/marital/family problems, thereby improving outcomes and reducing suffering on an even wider scale. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOOD TO KNOW This course gives you essential skills that are used in the successful treatment of a wide range of conditions, such as anxiety disorders, depression [https://www.humangivens.com/college/lift-depression/], addictions, self-harm, OCD and the rewind technique [https://www.humangivens.com/college/rewind-technique-training/] for treating trauma and phobias. They are also fundamental skills to have when using guided imagery and visualisation [https://www.humangivens.com/college/guided-imagery-and-visualisation/]. This course is an essential component of Part 1 of the HG Diploma. > I feel very excited and energised. I can't wait to start using these > techniques... > > OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST WHAT WILL YOU LEARN * The essential skills needed for successful brief therapy * New information about the APET™ model – why it is so important to construct therapy that is in tune with our how brains work (our emotional reactions come first) – this speeds up therapy and explains why purely cognitive and behavioural approaches can take so long * An ability to get to the root of the matter quickly by establishing which innate needs are not being met and why (the essence of effective brief therapy) * Quick rapport building skills * How to use the RIGAAR™ structure to improve therapy outcomes * Reflective listening and reflective reframing * How to use therapeutic language skills directly and indirectly to initiate change * Ways to use solution-focused questioning to create a framework for change * How to identify and use your client’s own life resources * An understanding of why the human givens approach dramatically increases the likelihood of therapy being brief, regardless of the presenting problem * A range of psychological interventions to use with common psychiatric problems: anxiety, panic attacks, depression, intrusive thoughts, relationship difficulties and so on * Promoting cooperation by developing realistic and achievable goals * How to identify exceptions (when the problem doesn’t occur) and get the patient to take credit for them * How to generate motivation for change in your patients * Separating the patient’s core identity from their problem * How to minimise or overcome resistance * How not to be drawn in to a client’s negative self-view * Great use of case histories to illustrate the skills covered * How to use the psychological laws of positive expectancy and concentrated attention * An understanding of why taking this collaborative human givens stance, reduces stress and pressure on you * Plenty of opportunity to consolidate what you are learning by practising the skills yourself -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HOW IS THE COURSE STRUCTURED?

But thankfully it is possible to help most addicts transform their lives – often in only a few sessions – as you will discover on this practical day which draws together, from various schools of solution-focused therapy, the most effective and proven techniques for treating addictions (including motivational interviewing and self compassion techniques) with essential neuroscientific insights into the addictive process to create powerful interventions. You will leave the day with renewed confidence knowing how it is possible to help most people with addictions, enabling them to transform their lives, often in a small number of sessions. The skills covered are essential to have (along with guided imagery) if you wish to improve your effectiveness when helping people quit any addiction, including: alcohol addiction, smoking, gambling addiction, shopping, social media addiction, sex, substance abuse, self-harm and eating disorders. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE You will leave this workshop with essential information and a variety of skills that you can implement straight away. However, the key concepts and most effective ways of treating addictions, which you will see demonstrated and explained, incorporate guided imagery skills.

The counter-conditioning technique that you will see demonstrated and explained on ‘Stopping Addictions’, is taught in detail and practiced by workshop participants on Guided Imagery Day 2: additional techniques. ‘Stopping Addictions’ complements our online course Tackling Addiction and what you will learn on it will also be very useful if you support or work with people who self-harm. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COURSE PROGRAMME The ‘Stopping Addictions: effective treatment and recovery’ course starts at 9.30am and runs until 4.00pm. * From 8.30am Registration (Tea and coffee served until 9.25am) * 9.30am How and why people develop addictions  * 11.00am Discussion over tea/coffee * 11.30am Dealing with resistance * 1.00pm Lunch (included) * 1.45pm How to create the optimal environment for positive change * 2.45pm Discussion over tea/coffee * 3.00pm Utilising the imagination * 4.00pm Day ends -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WHO IS THIS COURSE SUITABLE FOR?

BONUS RECORDING – the training is recorded, in case anyone experiences technical difficulties on the day, so you will also get a recording for a limited time afterwards to maximise your learning. WHY TAKE THIS COURSE Relationship issues are one of the most common causes of emotional distress – and often the reason people seek help. A solid understanding of why difficulties arise, and what can be done about them, is extremely useful therefore for all caring professionals, not just those working with couples. Drawing on pioneering research, Jennifer Broadley’s one-day couples counselling course gives you this important knowledge, along with a range of strategies and proven tips for working effectively and ethically with more than one client.  She shares the practical guidelines and skills she has acquired over many years of successfully helping couples using the human givens approach to build and maintain supportive and mutually rewarding relationships. Presented without psychobabble, and making good use of insightful case histories, Jennifer demystifies an area of counselling that many find daunting or fear is complicated. The day covers: the most effective ways to help and build rapport with couples in conflicted relationships; the sex differences in processing emotions; non-blame talking styles; the long-term impact of parenting; past conditioning, including psychological traumas, that can give clues about why difficulties arose; and what we can learn from the way successful couples facilitate mutual needs satisfaction. > Well worth attending – and the money.
