Effective brief psychotherapy

By Human Givens College

Discover how to make a positive difference – whatever the problem – using the key concepts and skills encompassed in human givens therapy. Accredited CPD: 6 hours With mental health problems affecting ever-increasing numbers of people, there is an economic and moral need for psychotherapy to be as effective as possible. What an inspirational, motivating online brief psychotherapy course!PSYCHIATRIST Why take this course Brief solution-focused therapy has been found (in a meta-analysis of hundreds of efficacy studies) to be far more effective in treating anxiety disorders, depression, phobias, trauma and addiction, than any form of therapy that assumes treatment needs to be long-term. But not all brief psychotherapeutic approaches are the same – some are more effective than others. On his hugely informative online brief psychotherapy course, Ivan Tyrrell distils the essential components you need to make your psychotherapeutic interventions as quick, reliably effective and long-lasting as possible. He clearly demonstrates how, by combining proven psychotherapeutic skills with new insights and techniques derived from the human givens approach (such as how to work more in tune with the brain by using the APET™ model), we can help distressed individuals and families even more effectively. The result is a powerful integrative, bio-psycho-social approach that allows you to work flexibly with each client’s situation – helping them to recover their lives as quickly as possible – and empowering them with new knowledge and skills that will build resilience against future setbacks. Anyone working in the welfare and caring professions can safely introduce these new strategies and concepts into their work – you will also gain a richer knowledge of why so many people have mental and emotional problems. It's impressive how much can be achieved in one session.CASE MANAGER / REGISTERED NURSE What will you learn A clear understanding of why a bio-psycho-social approach should determine how psychological interventions are structured Novel ways to overcome resistance and motivate people The chance to see skilled brief therapy in action (filmed examples) – with moving and riveting case histories How to make a difference fast, even with ‘stuck’ clients New treatments for anxiety, panic attacks, depression, anger, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), eating disorders, addictions, relationship/marital/family problems, and to help survivors of abusive relationships more effectively 47 vital tips that will make you more effective How to communicate with the emotional brain Ways to develop rapport quickly and gather good quality information from your clients Knowledge of the APET™ model and why this improves outcomes A better understanding of how emotions affect thought How to use a client’s own language therapeutically A richer knowledge of why so many people have mental and emotional problems and what you can to do help them Why brief psychotherapeutic approaches work so well How to establish clear outcomes and realistic goals The best ways to rehearse success and improve outcomes The importance of metaphor Examples of how to incorporate these strategies into your own practice Increased confidence when working with difficult cases Includes course notes Accredited CPD certificate and much more… Counts towards a Diploma By taking this course, you could be on your way to completing Part 1 of the Human Givens Diploma – a flexible, part-time psychotherapy course which will deepen your psychological knowledge and increase your ability to help people effectively and quickly.
