Autumn "News" Blog

It has been a while since my last blog; time seems to fly by at this busy time of year. Bad news in the media, stress and anxiety don’t seem to be reducing though.

I am busy with my private clients here at Calm Minds in Bramhall, I am also engaged with some lecturing on Counselling at Stockport College and the new Diploma in Hypnotherapy starts on the 5th November at Tameside General Hospital. If you are interested in training to become a qualified hypnotherapist you can find out more on our sister site – www.ncoch.co.uk.

My doctoral studies continue and my interest is flowing down the altered states in therapy route. This will be an interesting yet challenging area and involves the cross over between hypnosis and counselling where there is a language and culture clash. I believe that the work around metaphor (David Grove) bridges the two modes of therapy and I am delivering a talk on this subject at the Manchester Institute of Psychotherapy, Chorlton next Friday the 4th November at 6.30. Please feel free to come along, there is a nominal charge of £7 on the door, visit www.mcpt.co.uk for more information.

I will be posting some more blogs shortly on counselling post smoking cessation and how winter can affect our mood.
