Three very different workshops which emphasise the huge range of clients that therapists try to help. No assumptions are made about prior knowledge in any of these areas and you are guaranteed to take away practical techniques to use with your current or future clients immediately. Book now for the Early Bird Discounts.

Narcissism and its Victims: Therapeutic Approaches

Fri 3 Nov 2023 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM 

This introductory workshop assumes no prior knowledge of this complex and challenging disorder, and will provide an overview of the key issues and principles in understanding, supporting and treating this multifaceted condition.

Individuals with Narcissistic Personality disorder are often thought to be characterised by an inflated sense of their own importance, a severe need for excessive attention, praise and admiration, and a lack of empathy for others. However, the reality is often more complex with contemporary models acknowledging vulnerability and fragility. Equally, living with, or being an adult child of a narcissistic parent, can also be key features of some clients' distress. And what of the related phenomenon of the Echo Personality Disorder - what counselling interventions are possible in those cases?

This interactive, skills-focused workshop will examine contemporary thinking and practice in relation to the treatment of Narcissism - and its consequences.

What is this webinar about?

Panic disorder is an anxiety disorder where a person regularly has attacks of panic or fear which come on suddenly . During a panic attack there is a rush of intense mental and physical symptoms. Attacks can come on very quickly and for no apparent reason. A panic attack can be very frightening and unsettling. Symptoms can include elevated heartrate, feeling faint and sweating. Sufferers can sometimes feel they are going to die.

Fortunately, the condition is highly treatable and the prognosis is good through the use of cognitive behavioural therapy and related approaches.
