– 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?

A recording of a live webinar held in November 2023. I share the most important areas that you should be focussing on, so that you minimise the time spent wondering what on earth you can do to improve your fatigue challenge and current situation - and get onto the right path to recovery.How this webinar will help you I've helped hundreds of people to navigate this element of their recovery journey and I've used this experience to share in this webinar the most successful ways to plan for, and introduce, movement and exercise.  What this webinar covers As a Fatigue Coach, over the past five years I’ve helped hundreds of people improve how they’re living with fatigue, and guided them to an improved place - often helping them to achieve a full recovery. I want to share the most important areas that you should be focussing on, so that you minimise the time spent wondering what on earth you can do to improve your situation. This webinar is primarily for those who are in the first 6 months of tackling a fatigue-related health challenge, or those who have been dealing with it for longer than that but haven’t yet received any helpful advice. There are different severities of fatigue and the help I cover will be of most benefit to those who are struggling enough that they perhaps can’t work or socialise, but who do have some level of activity. For example, able to get up and dressed most days and prepare their own meals on a good day, but have to give lots of planned thought to anything that involves having to leave the house.   In this webinar I share my top pieces of guidance around the most helpful things you can do to cope better with this challenging illness. This includes:   - top tips to start managing your energy levels properly (pacing) - how to manage the difficult emotions that come with this health challenge - how to rest - communicating with those who don’t understand what you’re going through.   The webinar recording is approximately an hour long.
