Why take this guided imagery course

CPD Provider LogoStrong emotions focus and lock attention – keeping people trapped in problem behaviours. Therapeutic change cannot happen until the emotional arousal is reduced. This is why all health and welfare professionals need to know how to induce the relaxation response in their clients. Guided imagery and visualisation not only reduce emotional arousal quickly but can be used to reframe life circumstances through metaphor and to rehearse in the imagination any required changed behaviours and/or feelings, which dramatically increases the likelihood of those changes taking place in ‘real life’.

If you want to be able to help people effectively, this is a key course to attend – guided imagery is an essential skill required for removing phobias, curing PTSD, lifting depression and overcoming addictions or self-harm, and is also useful for raising self-confidence and increasing motivation. When you become confident in using these skills, you can begin to bring patients out of the emotionally-driven trance states of a wide range of conditions such as anxiety disorders, addiction, anger, stress overload, trauma, depression, chronic pain and much more.

That is why guided imagery is one of the most powerful psychotherapeutic tools available to us – and one you need in your ‘toolkit’.

Fascinating way of working with clients – relaxation techniques very powerful. Extremely relevant to practice. Good techniques and strategies learnt to use with clients to help them problem solve and move forward.

  38. Psychologist

    The ‘levelled’ gradated build up of the practical application was invaluable. It was very important for me that pairs were changed as this created space to feel comfy to change things for the better and use learning straight away. Good balance of rationales and Q & A opportunities.

  46. Therapist/Wellbeing Practitioner

    Fantastic – got me back in therapist learning and ‘curious’ mode rather than ‘doing’. Fantastic course delivery. Perfect blend of knowledge, experience, fun and understanding.

  47. Teresa Abbey

    I found the blend of facilitator input and experiential tasks was a good mix. Being able to practice step by step is helpful in embedding knowledge. I feel fairly confident being able to use my learning today. Valued having nice surroundings to train in and the food and refreshments were first class.

  51. Shelley-Ann Dennis, Teacher

    Ros is an excellent teacher. Information is delivered clearly and precisely and is not overwhelming. Time given to practice skills and discuss as a pair or group. However, not many quiet areas, so some practice distracted by others.

  52. Graham Mulholland, IT Manager and Coach

    Well structured and practical. Lots of opportunity to practice what you have learnt and to ask questions.

  58. Nicola Elmes, Psychotherapist

    Good structure, well paced, could have looked at theory a bit more. Difficult to concentrate on exercises due to volume levels in the room.

  59. Angelica Imber, Yoga Therapist

    Insightful exercise regarding positive experience sharing. So much great content (practical) to immediately be able to implement.

  60. Counsellor

    Good balance between teaching and practicing. I was expecting a bit more variety in different types of visualisation exercises and some more suggested language to better transition within the different stages.

  61. Kate Curtin, MH Nurse

    Well paced – no jargon.

  62. Therapist & Bodyworker

    The day flew by – full of useful info and lots of practise. Really liked the demos – would love to see more of these! Excellent tutor and appreciated the time-keeping.

  66. Hannah Phillips, Sports Consultant

    Really informative and practical. Ros was brilliant!

  67. Therapist

    The course was really good and well structured. Ros communicated clearly in simple language so the elements were easy to understand. As someone new to therapy, there was a lot to take in and unless I practice it soon I’m worried I may forget some of it.

    Very informative introduction to guided imagery. I liked the mix of theory and practise sessions.

  74. Denise Fisher, Retired Senior Lecturer/ Nurse Therapist

    Brilliant refresher course – has energised me to look forward to the other sessions. Thank you Ros.

    Interesting, great balance of information giving, demos and practise. Sometimes the techniques moved a bit too quickly for me as a complete beginner.

  76. Support Worker

    Integrative and practical exercises – very engaging.

  77. Billie-Jane Brown, Counsellor - Youth Wellbeing Coach

    I really enjoyed the course. The material covered was easy to understand. Learning each part in a step-by-step process helped me grasp the concept in depth of guided imagery as a tool that I can take forward in my practice. I felt the tutor was experienced and calm. The whole day was perfect and a great experience.

  84. Sonia Sweeney, Counsellor/Coach

    It’s really useful to learn how to apply the skills. By practising during the course we are able to have a deeper understanding of concepts.

  85. Samanta Vance, Nutrition & Hydration Specialist

    Good mixture of theory and practise. Good break times. Excellent food. Great to allow for feedback during the day.

  86. Social Worker/Counsellor

    The information presented was easy to follow, the steps built skills slowly, so that we could have foundational skills before adding more techniques. We were able to practise each foundational step to build our skills.

  87. Sasha Toronyl-Lalic, Yoga Teacher

    Amazing course, engaging throughout, lovely personable teacher.

  88. Claire Bunting, Mental Health Practitioner

  96. Elizabeth Cummings, Clinical lead of a counselling centre plus retirement from teaching

    Sitting at the back was a drawback to hearing, especially when the leader lowered her voice. However, the content of the course is inspiring and carefully constructed so that skills are developed in stages. Practise sessions during the day were really useful.

    I think that the pace of the course was brilliant. Lots of practical exercises that kept me engaged. Lots of tips and tricks that can be transported.

    Great balance of theory and practise. Practical application. Found it rejuvenating.

  173. Social Worker

    Very clear presentation with good opportunities to practise the skills

  174. Community Nursery Nurse/Holistic Therapist

    I found this course a great learning experience. I have learnt so much and feel I have the confidence to ‘put into practise’ all that I have learnt.

  175. Key Worker

    Ros delivered a really interesting module on guided imagery. Essential relaxation skills taught and practised in an open and safe environment. Valuable discussion and thorough explanation given for each area of this process. I feel like I have taken away a new skill set to practise which will be of benefit to many.

  176. Family Support – Education

    I loved Ros’s confidence and thought she explained things clearly. The examples and demos very invaluable and I thoroughly enjoyed the day

  177. Hypnotherapist

    Absolutely fantastic. Can’t think of any improvements. The teaching was clear, simple, easy to follow and very, very useful. Thank you!

  178. Psychotherapist/Counsellor

    I thoroughly enjoyed this course and can immediately see how I can use this with my clients. A very useful technique for my toolbox.

  179. Senior Wellbeing Officer

    I have really enjoyed today. Great pace, such clear and confident presentation which really helped my learning. It has been great to put this into practise.

  180. Paul S., Mental Health Worker

    What a wonderfully positive way of working with people – great day, thank you

  181. Rita, therapist

    I can see immediately how useful these skills are going to be for a wide range of conditions, and can’t wait to implement them. I’m going to do the rewind training next.

  182. GP

    Good to reinforce and practise techniques by doing several exercises – felt much more confident by the end.

  183. Bereavement Volunteer for Cruse Bereavement Care

    The handout and information given has been really useful – cannot really think how to better it. Thanks for an interesting and stimulating day.

  184. Counsellor

    All of it great. The Q&A session at the end was particularly valuable in talking about how to apply guided imagery to specific areas. Wonderful course – an amazing tool.

  185. Office Manager

    I found that all the information given was very useful as I do not have a therapeutic background. What a great teacher. Everything was explained very clearly and I feel that I learned a lot about this subject.

  186. Headteacher Support Service

    The whole day was absolutely wonderful – so many strategies to use with clients.

  187. Social Worker

    These approaches are the most useful I have come across to apply to my work and feel as if you can really make a difference.

  188. Counsellor

    Practical techniques to start the process of helping people lift from depression – good practical experience and lots of ideas for helping people relax.

  189. Management Consultant/Healer

    Fun, engaging and powerful. I can see such great application in this work.

  190. Occupational Therapy Senior Technical Instructor

    Most I’ve learnt and taken away from a course in years!

  191. Software Engineer

    The practical element was worth its weight in gold.

  192. School Counsellor

    It is so relevant to the young people I work with. The more Human Givens College courses I do – the more empowered I feel.

  193. Teacher and Mother

    Structured in such a way that by the end of the day I’d grown enormously in confidence.

  194. Counsellor

    I feel that this workshop has improved my practice more than any other I have attended in 15 years. Thank you!

  195. Artist working in Domestic Violence

    Amazing what can be achieved very quickly and simply. I will certainly use it in work with victims of domestic violence as part of art sessions.

  196. Teacher/Outreach Worker (Social Inclusion)

    As a sceptic, with many preconceived ideas, today has opened my eyes in no uncertain terms. I have bought a pile of books and will be devouring them over the weeks to come. Thank you – probably the most enlightening course I have attended.

  197. Counsellor

    New ideas, new ways of working.

  198. Outreach Worker – Women’s Refuge

    I can take techniques learnt today straight back to my workplace and use them with clients immediately. Fantastic day – can’t wait to try it out.

  199. Welfare Officer

    It opened up a completely new hopeful way to help clients become less aroused to enable real solution-focused therapy to flourish.

  200. Midwife

    I will be able to use what I have learnt today in antenatal classes to prepare women for childbirth. An excellent day.

  201. Marketing Manager, The Open University

    Fascinating subject matter. Thank you for another brilliant workshop!

    Very tangible, easy to use methods. Demystifying something I felt was more complicated than it is.

    Couldn’t have been better.

  204. Facilitator

    Directly relevant to my work – consolidated current practice and introduced new techniques. A really interesting and enjoyable day – thank you.

  205. BME – Mental Health C.D.W.

    Excellent source of information which I will use as an intervention in almost any type of situation where there is a need to relax anybody. Wasn’t expecting to gain so much from a workshop. Excellent!

  206. Support Needs Co-ordinator

    Good to be able to practice the techniques in a ‘safe’ environment and build in confidence how to use the skills.

  207. GP

    I will try this with quite a number of ‘stuck’ patients – physical and mental.

  208. Youth Worker

    Have been interested in this topic for some time, so to have the tutor bring it to life as she did was really fantastic.

    It was a good mix of discussion, demonstration and practical application.

  210. Counsellor

    The lecturer has a wonderful, calming and relaxing manner. She makes learning fun and enjoyable.
