Ref No: 192  VALID CPD

NLP Communication for Therapists

One day CPD Course

11^th July 2010, 10am - 5pm

£95

Given the time constraints of a clinical consultation, we can see how essential it is to be able to really communicate with a client and to quickly elicit critical information relating specifically to their condition, allowing us to spend as much time as possible on treatment.  Also for any treatment to be most effective it’s imperative to establish a comfortable client/therapist relationship based on trust, openness and understanding.

Anyone who has considered taking a Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) practitioner course will already know how expensive that can be. This course has been designed specifically to give therapists with no previous NLP training the most effective communication tools, using the latest NLP techniques without the expense of a full practitioner course.

Outcomes - By the end of the course you will be able to:

* Use state elicitation to be in the most resourceful frame of mind before, during and after a consultation. 

* Understand why you communicate with some clients more easily than with others.

* Be able to communicate fully and effectively with every client.

* Move your client from a negative state to their most resourceful state.

* Build rapport quickly - one of the most essential skills for any therapist.

* Recognise how we use our senses to communicate with our world.

* Literally speak your client’s language.

* Discover how your client builds their unique model of the world and how they can change it.

* Move your client from being under the effect of their lives to being the cause of their lives.

* Understand and elicit your client’s goals.

* Help your clients develop achievable positive outcomes.

NLP is the study of excellence - of what works - and the techniques and skills you will take away with you will not only allow you to communicate and work more effectively as a therapist but they can also be used in almost every situation in your own life including relationships, negotiations and setting personal goals.

You will also take away a certificate of attendance and a course handbook describing all of the techniques covered during the day, plus you will have access to free post-course email and telephone support.

Initially developed for therapists this course has now been taken up by the medical community as a validated CPD course for medical doctors.
