On this day you will learn how combining these insights with a wide range of different psychological techniques enables the majority of cases to be lifted surprisingly quickly … even severe ones. Although antidepressants can play a role in reducing symptoms, they can also be dangerous and prove hard to withdraw from – research shows that appropriate counselling is more effective at lifting even the most severe depression, with a much lower rate of relapse.  The approach you will learn on this workshop is in this category and is proving very effective – 10,000s of people have already been successfully helped with the knowledge and skills you will learn on the day. > I feel much more confident in my understanding of the process of depression > and how to target it with helpful interventions > > DANIEL COOPER WHAT WILL YOU LEARN * New insights into why depressed people wake up tired and unmotivated, and what to do about it * Information about the links between inflammation and depression * Clear, practical steps for lifting even severe depression * Demonstrations of the skills that quickly break the cycle of depression, move people on and prevent relapse * A profound understanding of why these work and are a big improvement on drug therapy * Practice sessions in using these proven skills and techniques yourself * What to do if you suspect someone may be feeling suicidal * How to establish what’s not working in a person’s life and why, using a case history * Techniques for tackling rigid thinking, negative expectancy and the pessimistic rumination that causes depression * How to work with your clients to find effective ways they can get their innate emotional needs met well and in balance * A range of additional useful tips and strategies that you can easily incorporate into your work * The opportunity to watch a film of master therapist Joe Griffin working quickly and successfully with a highly depressed patient * You will also have plenty of time to ask questions of the tutor, who is also a practising therapist herself… > Everyone, not just the caring professions, should do this day. > > GENERAL PRACTITIONER    WHO IS THIS COURSE SUITABLE FOR? * If your life is affected by depression in any way – perhaps the staff or students you are responsible for at work present with depression, or a friend or family member is depressed – you will benefit from attending * Anyone who, for whatever reason (personal or professional), would like to better understand the causes of depression and be able to offer practical help to people who are depressed * If you would like to know how best to prevent relapses and help clients build long-lasting resilience against future setbacks, this workshop is for you * Anyone concerned about the side effects of drug treatments for depression, who would like to know about the easy-to-learn psychotherapeutic techniques that can lift depression quickly, will benefit from attending * It is essential training for counsellors, psychotherapists, social workers, occupational therapists, HR professionals and all other health and welfare professionals – since depression is now so common, it is crucial to understand it and know how to treat it quickly and effectively. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GOOD TO KNOW This workshop complements our online course: How to break the cycle of depression. Guided imagery and visualisation and Therapeutic Language are useful skills to have for implementing the strategies taught on this workshop.    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COURSE PROGRAMME * From 8.30am * Registration (Tea and coffee served until 9.25am) * 9.30am Understanding depression and what you can do about it * 11.00am Discussion over tea/coffee * 11.30am Exploring how to work with depression * 1.00pm Lunch (included) * 1.45pm Practice in using the HG approach * 2.45pm Discussion over tea/coffee * 3.00pm Guided imagery for depression * 4.00pm Day ends -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This course has been independently accredited by the internationally recognised CPD Standards Office for 6 hours of CPD training.

When combined with key insights into the addictive process and what drives it, the techniques covered on this day prove effective at helping people successfully quit a wide range of addictions. They also help to reduce withdrawal symptoms, minimise relapses and give people the best chance at effective, long-lasting recovery…   WHAT WILL YOU LEARN * New insights into the addictive process and why people become addicted * Common traps to avoid when treating addictions * A range of psychological techniques for overcoming addiction * How to develop a treatment plan and deepen a client’s commitment to change * Ways to overcome resistance – and prevent relapses ALSO COVERED: * Demonstrations – by a leading expert in addiction counselling – of the powerful skills that help to quickly break the patterns of addictive behaviour * Guidance and practise in using some of these yourself * How to break the cycle of shame involved in addictions, using self-compassion and generation of hope * Essential motivational interviewing techniques – and how to incorporate them into the ‘cycle of change’ * Up-to-date knowledge of the most useful ways to beat a wide variety of addictions – and prevent relapse * Increased understanding of the addictive trance and its false promises * How to use harm-reduction techniques * Why the social-based model of addiction is more helpful than the disease-based model * An understanding of the importance of guided imagery in overcoming addictions and substance abuse (particularly ‘counter-conditioning’ which is taught on Guided Imagery 2: additional techniques) * Co-morbid conditions – the link with addiction and how to deal with them as effectively and quickly as possible > A total revelation – very uplifting > > MENTAL HEALTH WORKER WHY TAKE THIS COURSE The numbers of people affected by addictions and substance abuse continue to rise – causing immense mental, physical and financial suffering to individuals, their families and colleagues – while the resources to help are dwindling. 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. We therefore recommend, if you aren’t proficient in these already, that you attend the Guided imagery and visualisation for therapeutic change workshop (either before or after this one). 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?

On completion of this training you’ll receive CPD certificates from the College and the CPD Standards Office.
