The Secrets of effectively Assessing,
Engaging and Motivating your clients
The Second two-day course in the 'Secrets' series
written and presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH
Course overview:
The aim of this course is to equip you with the knowledge, insight and skills necessary for effective assessment, engagement and motivation to help you create the very best possible relationship and environment for working with your client
This course is divided into three sections;
1) How to run an effective Initial Consultation:
How to assess the nature your client's presenting symptoms, and ascertain their suitability for therapy, while creating the rapport, trust and empathy necessary for a strong therapeutic relationship.
> Using an Initial Consultation Form + effective note-taking
> Managing your clients expectations
> How to build trust, rapport, belief, likeability, and confidence
> Recognising personality types and personality disorders
> Feeding back to the client: making sense of their symptoms
> Identifying major conflicts, and red herrings!
> Un-doing previous therapy and 'institutionalised resistance'
> Breaking down barriers: creating a special, safe place to talk
> How to explain Pure Hypnoanalysis, Free Association, Hypnosis and Suggestion
> Overcoming objections, resistance, denial and sheer ignorance!
> Understanding cause and effect + direct v indirect symptoms
> Suggestion therapy or analytical therapy?
> Is this client suitable for therapy? Are they likely to get through it?
> Identifying whether a client is going to find therapy easy or difficult
> Giving the client a concise overview of their symptoms, and motivating them
"The way you handled my first consultation had an amazing affect on me.... I felt certain you were going to help me, and I opened up more to you in those first few minutes, than I had done previously during five years of psychotherapy!"
Rosie M. (Ex BPD sufferer) |
2) Recognising and working with clients with Personality Disorders:
It is generally accepted that people who suffer from personality disorders can find the resolution of anxiety symptoms very difficult - however Pure Hypnoanalysis can be extremely effective in resolving many of these problems.
Specifically, we will look at:
> The Borderline Personality
> The Narcissistic Personality
> The Antisocial Personality
> The Obsessive/Compulsive Personality
We will discuss each of the main 'disorders' that clients are likely to consult a therapist with, and look at how these types of personality get formed/created, and how they are likely to react in therapy.
"You were so relaxed and comfortable during my I/C, that you made something that should have been very difficult, very, very easy"

3) Understanding and working with Dissociative Conditions:
Dissociation is sometimes referred to as 'The Hidden Epidemic', and affects millions of people worldwide. Most 'normal' people have perhaps one or two significant traumatic experiences in their childhood that have had a pathological effect, causing anxiety and depression. People who are dissociative tend to have experienced a very conflicting or traumatic childhood and they have had to develop different coping mechanisms to everyone else..... these 'coping mechanisms' can make life very difficult, even after the threat of trauma has passed...
> What is Dissociation, and what are the various types?
> Hysterical and Paranoid Dissociation
> A Sociological perspective
> Examples of Dissociation including case histories
> 'LIVE' explanations by sufferers of dissociation
> Dissociation in therapy, and the effects on the therapeutic relationship
> Repression and Dissociation - how do the two defence mechanisms work together?
> Abreaction and catharsis in dissociative people
> Finding the originating cause of the dissociative state
> Techniques for promoting 're-association'
> UFO abductions, Past life experiences and near death experiences explained
> The five main dissociative symptoms: amnesia, depersonalisation, derealisation, identity confusion and identity alteration.
"I would just like to add my thoughts with regards to the 'secrets weekend', without seeming to hysterical, It was absolutely incredible.
The course has now prompted me to finish my own therapy which I thought I had successfully completed. This course is, without doubt, a must for anyone that is considering practising hypnotherapy or hypnoanalysis.
I feel THIS particular course was paced in a way that was by far better than any other seminar I have ever been on, and created a brilliant atmosphere."
