Prevent Your Clients from Self-sabotaging Goals!

 

Most of the time, the conscious goals we set up for ourselves are sabotaged by our subconscious processes.  Imagine how much faster and more successful you would’ve been as a therapist if you helped your clients succeed in achieving goals by engaging both conscious and subconscious processes of the mind.  This skill would benefit your client’s sense of achievement and improve their life almost immediately, no doubt.  But if you learned how to engage sub-conscious mind processes, your organisation could benefit too.   Your services would lead to achieving good client outcomes really fast!

  

Although our cognitive processes are important and valuable to therapy and to daily life, it is the vast interplay of activity that occurs beneath the surface of consciousness that is doing the necessary preparatory work. Our subconscious mind is a place used by our self-preservation systems to hide many of those things that can do us harm. Our implicit world can be full of memories, emotional horrors, traumas, and deficits that are too much to deal with in the conscious space. Their effects are felt as emergent states that might include depression, anxiety, addictions, or social dysfunction. But, just like “I’m hungry,” these conscious “awarenesses,” or what we often call symptoms, are blunt expressions of something far more complex, detailed, and nuanced.

  

Watch this recording and learn how implementing such skills like prediction, or the powerful effects of suggestion, re-imagining, metaphors, incubated cognition, the power of self-promises, or emotional insight will significantly improve your effectiveness as a therapist, and will allow your clients to achieve goals.

  

This brand new course  is based on Dr Dan Short’s newest book “Making Psychotherapy More Effective with Unconscious Process Work” to be published in July 2021. Dr Short is a top-ranked psychologist practitioner who has learned to view every problem as an opportunity. Dr Short has taken the lessons of 15 years of scholarly research and clinical problem solving and condensed them down into the essential mindsets and strategies. During this training opportunity, participants will learn:

  

  • How to access the innate problem-solving capacities of the mind, which include intuition, deliberation, insight, conviction, and optimism. Without these essential mindsets, effective problem solving fails to develop.
  • How to meaningfully select techniques based on an understanding of the function they serve. This strategic perspective enables the practitioner to catalyse different mindsets using a variety of concrete strategies.
  • How to use statements and suggestions to build the mental framework needed to solve some immediate problem in a way that better prepares the individual for future problem solving.
