Yes, self-care is more than bubble baths - great - but then, what is it?! And how do I do it?! 

This is what I try to answer in this 100-minute video as I present my innovative approach to preventing, identifying and addressing burnout.

In this specially recorded webinar, I've combined my 15 years experience in medical science, with my 15 years as a therapist to formulate and explain the origins of burnout, how to identify it in yourself and others and what to do about it. I also discuss my personal experience with, and recovery from, severe burnout.

If you'd like a FREE preview of the types of things included in this webinar, then please check out Burnout Breakdown which is a 30-minute introduction to my innovative and holistic self-care approach.

Please note: this is not a recording of a live webinar, but a standalone webinar.

This 2 hour course will take you through the process of getting started in private practice.

It is primarily designed for group practice owners/directors to download and share with their staff and contractors as part of their onboarding process. This will ensure that all new staff have a solid understanding of what working in PP is all about.

The content is broken down over 6 modules that will each take you around 30 minutes to complete.

All up, we cover the basics of:

- confidentiality
- psychopathology in PP (common presentations and what that means for your day-to-day operations)
- funding bodies (e.g., Medicare, TAC etc)
- communication with clients

And it includes a bonus module (dealing with panic attacks, automatic negative thoughts and how to respond to a data breach).

This course is comprised of nearly 3 hours' of specially recorded videos (not a recording of a live session) and once downloaded you can use this content for onboarding all your new staff indefinitely.

This 4- week program is designed as a ‘what I wish I had known’ when I started down the road to becoming an animal-assisted therapist nearly a decade ago. It is NOT a program to train you and your animal to become an animal handler team,

Rather it provides you with:

- An overview of the different types of animal-assisted activities and interventions (including AAT and AAE),
- A solid theoretical underpinning as to why AAIs are so effective,
- Demonstrations as to why the proper training is so crucial to getting the most out of AAI
- Guidance on finding the right training provider,
- Information to determine if AAI work is right for you and your existing animal, or how to find a suitable animal assistant
- an overview of some of the things to consider if you do want to pursue AAI, e.g., how to handle your taxes and insurances and,
- Ideas around “where-to-next”, e.g., training providers, developing workplace OH&S policies etc and getting started in AAI.

All up this program includes over 10 hours of recorded webinars and video demonstrations, plus handouts, templates and a final knowledge quiz that grants you recognised prior learning if you go on to undertake the Lead the Way handler course.

Please note: You can always ask questions via email throughout the course, but you will also have access to ongoing support via our All Things AAT Facebook group (please feel free to join the FB group whether you sign up to this program or not).

Full title: Integrating hypnosis, somatic psychology and EMDR in the treatment of trauma

Despite it's identification with dual focus of attention/bilateral stimulation EMDR is an integrated approach incorporating elements of behaviorism, psychodynamic therapy, somatic psychology and hypnosis.

Indeed, the strength of the method lies in how it seamlessly integrates elements of different approaches to address the sensory, affective and mental components of presenting problems. The contribution of these elements is not always explicit. For example, while EMDR theorists emphasize the differences between EMDR and hypnosis, in practice there is much overlap between the two; both approaches recognize the existence of special learning states and both approaches are designed to address the dissociation associated with PTSD.

Many EMDR interventions, such as float-back, future template and ego state interventions, originate from hypnosis. Somatic psychology is another element of EMDR which is gaining increasing recognition. The latter is particularly relevant given the somatic dimension of PTSD and EMDR applications with pain.

Mark Grant will review the under-appreciated contribution that these two approaches make to EMDR and how the skills they embody can be better integrated into EMDR to enhance treatment. This material will be illustrated through case-histories and videos.

Learning objectives:

* Understand the contribution of hypnosis and somatic psychology to EMDR
* Learn about the relationship between hypnotisability, trauma & dissociation
* Learn 3 somatic interventions for enhancing EMDR
* Learn 3 hypnotic interventions for enhancing EMDR
