About the Course

The aim of this CPD is to inspire participants to feel confident in working with children and teenagers and will involve informative discussion and engaging activities. Sian will also share a range of specific, creative ideas and resources.

The content will cover:

  • The key points of Solution Focused practice when working with children.
  • Understanding a range of childhood conditions for which Hypnotherapy is effective.
  • How to build rapport and communicate effectively with children, including those who are reluctant, unwilling or unable to talk.
  • How a solution focused approach supports children in the development of their own solutions to problems.
  • The importance of recognising and acknowledging children’s strengths.
  • How to engage children in the process effectively, including creative ideas for the younger age range.
  • How to tailor the Initial Consultation – including an adapted Information Gathering handout.
  • The importance of setting clear goals and how to measure them effectively.
  • Utilising scaling and the Miracle Question to develop goals.
  • How to communicate with parents, manage their expectations and encourage behaviour that will impact positively on the process.
  • Hypnotherapeutic interventions which can be utilised with children.
  • Different ways children respond during hypnosis and how to manage this.
  • Age appropriate metaphors and language patterns – including handouts.
  • Your toolbox – ideas for props and sensory aids.

The importance of working with children is why this CPD is also an integral part of the Advanced Hypnotherapy Diploma course (AHD).

“It was probably the best CPD I’ve been on since qualifying so thank you Sian!”

“It was an absolutely brilliant CPD which left me full of enthusiasm to put it all into practice. Thank you!!”

The most interesting informative topic and really good interaction with group as a whole, she stayed on end of the course for anyone to ask questions and was really helpful taking time to answer a query I had. Well worth the time and money spent, best CPD I have been on

I was so impressed with this course. Every minute was filled with valuable information from an incredible tutor. I gained a huge amount of practical information and resources and I now feel far more confident in delivering sessions to younger clients. Sian’s manner was warm, enthusiastic and very helpful.
