Brief therapy skills for Stopping Addictions
As the number of people affected by addiction continues to rise, its treatment is undergoing a revolution. New ideas and techniques from various schools of brief, solution-focused therapy are showing that it is possible to help most addicts transform their lives in a small number of sessions.
In this practical workshop with Joe Griffin, which complements his MindFields seminar 'Understanding and stopping addictive behaviour', you will learn and practise the skills derived from the human givens approach (which organically integrates the best brief therapy techniques) that help people with a wide range of addictions, including: alcoholism, heroin, smoking, gambling, sex and eating disorders. These skills are essential if you wish to improve your effectiveness in this area.
What you will gain from the day
- Demonstrations of the skills that help to quickly break the patterns of addictive behaviour
- Practise in using these yourself
- New insights into the addictive process
- Essential motivational interviewing techniques
- Up-to-date knowledge of the most useful ways to beat a wide variety of addictions and prevent relapse
- A new confidence that comes from knowing how much can be done – when you know how.
