About the Course

This CPD will allow you to gain an insight into the common addictions that can come into your practice, and how the Solution Focused approach can be used very effectively to support the client, giving you the confidence as a hypnotherapist to help your clients cope, move forward and change their behaviour.

You are almost guaranteed to encounter clients struggling with addiction or misuse issues within your practice. Over 250,000 people were in contact with the drugs and alcohol services from April 2020 to March 2021, according to a national report on adult substance misuse and treatment, published November 2021. Numbers not seeking help or seeking alternate provision are presumed to be much higher.

If you want to achieve long lasting success you’ll need to have a deeper, up to date understanding of these complex issues, and know how to use the solution focused approach to support these clients.

The focus will be on:

  • Difference between addiction, dependency and habits.
  • Learn about different addictions especially alcohol and drugs.
  • Understand addiction through the solution focused principles.
  • Understand how the brain changes with addictions.
  • How to create a positive mindset so clients can set realistic goals.
  • Strategies to help with The Initial Consultation and Miracle Question.
  • History and trends of addiction.

Just brilliant! The course was full of so much information; delivered with a wealth of knowledge, great empathy and support towards the potential client and their situation, plus how we as SFH's can encourage them forward to their goal. I encourage anyone who is interested in addiction to go on this course, I can now see how SFH can make that difference for our clients. Thank you Carmen!

What a wonderful CPD! Not only was Carmen extremely knowledgeable in this area, but her passion was clearly visible. This made the CPD very engaging. Also, there were plenty of practical tips to apply to our own practice. I highly recommend this CPD! Thank you

I really enjoyed this CPD as it is of particular interest to me. I found Carmen to be extremely passionate about this subject too, and really appreciated her personal perspective and especially in what she shared to the group. One of CPHT Hampshire's students who is going to graduate this weekend was in this group too and found it extremely useful and informative as I did. Therefore I believe this was a great CPD for near graduates, new graduates as well as old timers such as me ;-). Many thanks.

A very informative day and especially like how Carmen explained how we put the information into practice. Good comprehensive notes given after so we didn't need to be too distracted scribbling everything she said! Thank you.

This was a very thorough and engaging course. The course material was not only easy to follow but was backed up with examples and open discussion of how to put into practice. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and feel confident in adding this to my practice moving forward.

Excellent course. A lot of these whole day CPDs can finish early...but Carmen went to the wire! Very detailed and informative. I learned A LOT from her and she was able to answer everyone's questions throughout the day. I would highly recommend this course and/or this lecturer. Thank you.

The perfect balance of sharing knowledge and theory with how to apply it all in practice. The trainer's personal experience enhanced the context and credibility of what she was teaching. It was paced well, with a variety of presentations, interactivity and media. I feel well-informed and confident now to treat clients with addictions.
