– the practical skills you need Discover how to combine key new insights into the causes and symptoms of depression with a range of powerful psychological techniques to make treatment easier and more consistently effective … Accredited CPD Certificate : 6 hours Length 1 day (9.30am - 4.00pm) Practical, inspiring and full of hopeDR GINA JOHNSON, GP Why take this course Until recently depression was little understood but key new insights into its causes and symptoms have made treatment easier and more consistently effective. 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 interventionsDANIEL 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?
