Forensic Hypnosis Training Seminar:
Forensic and Investigative Memory-Enhancing Techniques

Presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH

A two-day certificated course for professionals dealing with traumatic memory.

Overview:
This course has been designed for hypnotherapists and other professionals, to equip them with the necessary insights, understanding and techniques, in order to practice a very specialised form of therapy known as: 'FIMET' - Forensic and Investigative Memory-Enhancing Techniques. The techniques taught on this course are ideal for helping people who have:

(a) experienced some form of traumatic incident(s) and are struggling to process it, or are suffering in some way as a consequence of it

(b) experienced some form of traumatic incident(s), and have poor memory recall (or none at all) about the experience(s)

(c) experienced some form of traumatic incident(s), have poor memory recall (or none at all) about the experience(s) and where the information gathered about the experience(s) may be used in Civil or Criminal legal proceedings

The foundations of this course are based around three main disciplines:
(1) Investigative and Analytical Hypnotherapy Techniques
(2) Critical Incident Debriefing
(3) Enhanced Cognitive Interviewing

This course will teach many practical skills, but will also review all the pertinent research and studies.

Some of the areas covered during the two-day course include:

  • How memories of traumatic events are processed
  • Why do people repress/dissociate traumatic experiences
  • Different memory-enhancing techniques
  • Real case-studies
  • Research findings around the subject of 'False Memory Syndrome'
  • How to gather evidence that is admissible in a court of law and the legal aspects of Forensic Hypnosis in the UK.
  • Legal issues surrounding 'recovered memory'
  • Techniques to enhance hypnoanalysis or Pure Hypnoanalysis
  • How to help a person remember and recover from a traumatic incident
  • A comprehensive review of all the guidelines laid down by: The Crown Prosecution Service, 'Judges Rules', The British Hypnotism Act (1952), Police and Criminal Evidence act, Home Office Guidelines, and the British Psychological Society

All the information and techniques presented during this course are fully supported by research findings - including the IAPH's own recent research project into recovered memory

The Cancer Begone is a psychological approach to DIS-EASE’, your beliefs, perceptions and expectations have influenced all of your life’s experiences...including illness and dis-ease. Your attitude towards dis-ease is 90% of the battle, by changing your attitude it’s possible to change your health!

The ‘Cancer Begone!’ programme teaches you how to effectively manage and change your limiting beliefs and expectations towards your dis-ease and your recovery.

Each step of the four week programme is designed to help to restore the physical, mental and emotional balance of the individual, as well as;

In the 1970s Sam Shoeman was diagnosed with end-stage liver cancer...he was given only months to live, and as expected died in the allotted time frame...yet the autopsy revealed that his doctors had made a terrible mistake...Shoeman’s tumour was only one tiny nodule...and hadn’t spread as had been suspected...the only thing that they could determine was that he didn’t die from cancer, but from believing he was dying from cancer... Extensive info pack included with both courses, scripts and much more…

“This very enjoyable day, a great mix of theory and practice, provided me with real skills in Pain Management and, more importantly, the knowledge of how and when to use them effectively and safely. As an added bonus, you get Stevie's Cancer Help Program included in his very detailed information pack. This is a complete guide to helping a client through their illness/treatments but is equally valid as a self-assessment, and potentially life-changing, approach to managing your own health and wellbeing. You win all round with this course...you add to your skills as a therapist, and, on a personal level, come away with a guide to optimising your own health.”
Elaine Brown - Hypnotherapist.

The cost of attending the course is just £85:00 - refreshments and lunch included. B & B is available at the Hotel at the specially negotiated rate of just £40 (per person, per night)

Self Awareness and Self Analysis 
Who Are You?

Presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH

In order to help other people, you must know yourself 'inside out':

What make you tick?
What influences you?
What are your prejudices?
How socially phobic you are?
What do you avoid in life?
What personality type are you?
What do you find difficult in relationships?

How can you take control of your unresolved neuroses, be a successful therapist, and have a great life???


A brand new two-day workshop all about you, your personality, how you interact with others, and how others see you!

This course has been specifically designed for therapists who:

a) Have been completely through their own therapy, but still have some 'issues', symptoms or problems
b) Want to have greater insight into themselves
c) Have some social anxiety or confidence issues within their own practice
d) Want to be more successful with their clients
e) Sometimes have confidence issues with their clients
f) want to learn to open-up more
g) have some limiting beliefs they want to resolve

Get to know yourself inside-out!. If knowledge is power, then the ultimate knowledge is really understanding yourself...

The course will cover topics such as:

  • An in-depth study of the main personality types
  • How unresolved feelings of guilt and shame effect our lives
  • Breaking down the barriers and seeing who we REALLY are
  • Recognising what drives and motivates us
  • Understanding 'the will to power' in therapy, and how we react when clients attempt to dominate or control the therapeutic relationship
  • Learning to use and express your personality in order to maximise rapport and trust
  • Gaining perspective on your own behaviors and beliefs
  • Using Rob's DREAM TECHNIQUE on yourself - to get the best out of you

Warning: this is a workshop rather than a seminar: there will be LOTS of delegate participation, and everyone present will be expected to take part.

'Changing Limiting Belief Systems' 
Training Seminar

Written and presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH

Everyone  experiences limiting beliefs at some time in their life, whether they simply have a little self-doubt, self-esteem issues, have frequent complaints or  illnesses, or suffer from full-blown ME or PVFS - this course will empower  YOU to help them change their lives, completely.

On this advanced  two-day course, you will learn an incredibly powerful system of training people to identify and change their limiting beliefs, and take back control of their lives.   

Question : What DID a clinically  depressed GP, an ME sufferer, an obsessional social-phobic, a child with leukemia, a  cigarette smoker, someone with an obsessive personality, and a sufferer of a major  neurological illness have in common?

Answer : They all HAD  limiting beliefs that were preventing them from regaining their health, and living happy, successful  lives.

The above six REAL case histories will be explored during this course...


The key to recognising and changing limiting beliefs, lies in understanding he different personality types and traits that create, distort and maintain them. This ground-breaking course joins together amazing new research, and Rob's 20 years experience (as a Pure Hypnoanalyst) of treating people with limiting beliefs....

Do you ever have clients/patients, that regardless of how much you do for them, seem ‘closed’ to the idea of getting better?  Or clients/patients who, though they have been successfully treated - and there is no longer any pathological reason for their symptoms - seem to cling on to them (their symptoms) for dear life?

Maybe you have treated a smoker, and though they have  stopped, they are struggling because they are still thinking of themselves  as a ‘smoker’ or an ‘ex-smoker’....

Maybe you have helped a person to  lose weight and feel better about themselves, but as soon as they stop  coming for treatment, the weight went back on...

Maybe you have been  treating someone for clinical depression, and they just REFUSE to get  better.....

Maybe you have treated somebody, who just had no belief in  their ability to be healthy, and have a happy, fulfilled life?

This course will not only explain WHY these clients/patients haven’t got better, but it will teach you how to  train them to overcome their limiting belief systems, and take back control of their  lives!

"Dear Rob
After suffering terribly from M.E. for 14 years, I am totally amazed to be writing to you today, to tell you that it is now completely gone!
I have taken charge of my thoughts and beliefs, and cured myself! Thank you so much for sharing your 'limiting beliefs' technique with me - I am now the person I always knew that I could be. My husband, my family and my GP can't believe - but that is their 'limiting belief'.
Thank you Rob, so very much.
Emily x
PS I hope you get this in time to add to your book! "

Emily Felgate, Pinner, London


Changing Limiting Beliefs, is a multi-faceted  approach to training people to completely change their limiting beliefs - empowering them to take back control of their life. A major part of this course will be orientated towards learning a six-session training program that you can use with your patients/clients, that can significantly help people with ME, post viral fatigue syndrome, anorexia, fibromyalgia, OCD, smoking..... and just about  ANY other disorder or symptom where limiting beliefs play a part .

Whilst researching this course, a physicist who runs a  Paediatric Oncology dept in a major UK hospital told me he can tell within minutes of meeting children with leukaemia   which ones are likely to survive their illness,  and which ones won’t.... it all comes down to their belief systems...  which are changeable!!

The Techniques taught on this course can be used as a stand-alone training program, or in conjunction with other therapies such as: hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, NLP, CBT, Life Coaching, Counselling etc or alongside physical therapies, such as: osteopathy, Physiotherapy, Chiropractic, and even alongside conventional medicine: in the G.P.’s surgery In hospitals, or in clinics

This certificated course is a module in the IAPH  Advanced Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis and Pure Hypnoanalysis. All delegates will receive a certificate, proof of 14 hours CPD, and a course receipt

As with all Rob's courses and training sessions, this seminar will be presented in a dynamic, challenging, humorous and exciting way.  Rob Kelly has been in full-time practice as a hypnotherapist and  psychotherapist for twenty years, and has amassed a huge amount of experience in treating people with limiting belief systems. This two-day course is all about changing those limiting beliefs....

"I can honestly say that this is the best course I've attended. It was truly inspirational and I came away feeling really enabled and confident. I started putting the technique into practice with clients straight away with excellent results. This technique has really given me the skills to help not only clients with M.E. etc, but so many others. The course content was easy to understand and put into practice. My true 'light bulb' moment came the first time I tried the technique with a client and had a real breakthrough after their last couple of sessions had been spent going round in proverbial circles. If you only do one course this year this has to be it! Thanks again Rob."

Sales and Marketing for Therapists

Presented by Gary Foster MIAPH

MOST hypnotherapists fail because of one fatal flaw … their inability to create a profitable business with their sought after skills. In fact most treat what they’re doing as a hobby and ‘play at it’ rather than become serious about it … the first indicator is the level of fees they charge and how they present themselves!

If you’re fed up at not being able to bring in more clients and create a business that will give you the income you deserve, then this workshop is for you. If you’re mystified at this thing called ‘marketing’ then worry no more. In just one day, Gary will strip away all the jargon and will work with you to develop your own ‘hypnotherapy practice’.

Here’s a taster on what you’ll discover …

  • How to raise yourself above all of the other hypnotherapists in your area to become the ‘known expert’
  • How to charge the right fees
  • The secrets on writing adverts that attract potential clients that are a delight to take through therapy
  • How to write press releases that get printed
  • The brutal truth about brochures and flyers … this one will really make you sit up and listen! Get this wrong and you might as well wave goodbye to your business
  • How to use your business cards as your ‘silent sales force’
  • Why it’s important to have a marketing communication calendar AND if you don’t have one now, how to put one together which’ll reap in the rewards again and again, plus....you’ll also get a jam-packed 59 page manual that is full of hints, tips and strategies designed to grow
    your business.

Easy Website optimisation for Therapists

This seminar has now been made into an online training course - Click here to go to www.easy-search-engine-optimisation.com

Easy Website Optimisation for Therapists

Presented By Rob Kelly FIAPH

Question: What is the easiest and quickest way to attract lots more clients?
Answer: By getting thousands more visitors to your website!

This one-day training course has been designed specifically for Therapists who have a website, (or would like one) and would like that website to rank highly, ie, appear at the top of the screen on the major search engines like google, alta vista, msn etc.

Most potential clients will only look at the first page of results once they have searched for ‘hypnotherapist in Leeds’ or ‘stop smoking in London’ etc. …. You need your website to be on this first page of website listings if you want lots of visitors to view your web pages.

You might have the best looking website in the world,
but it is useless unless people visit it!

This course will equip you with all the skills necessary to make all of your web pages HIGHLY VISIBLE to the public. Learn how to write the very best web pages, and optimise them for best performance, including: which words and pictures to use, the right ratio of words-to-pictures, the right topics to write pages on, ambiguous spelling, links to other websites, keyword meta-tags, keywords meta-title-tags, description tags, alt-tags, pictures, etc, etc.

In a recent survey of 250 hypnotherapists, 92% stated they attracted more than 80% of their clients via their website Ensure your website is getting as many visitors as possible!

Why pay £1000's to somebody to do this for you, when you can do it MUCH BETTER yourself, and keep your website on top by spending just an hour a month on it.`

You will receive a purpose-written (plain-English!) handout detailing EXACTLY what you need to do to get the very best results from your website. An easy-to-read step-by-step guide will take you through the whole process.

Don’t worry if you are not ‘web-literate’ or ‘computer-literate’ – you can prepare the right wording and tags for your website on paper, and give this to your web-master to upload for you.

Question: What is the biggest mistake to make in marketing yourself?
Answer: To assume that whoever built your website has optimised it effectively... most web designers DO NOT KNOW VERY MUCH AT ALL about website optimisation!

If you had your website created/designed by someone else, it is very likely that it is very poorly optimised - Why not call Rob now, and together you can check over your site?

"If a technophobe like me can find this stuff interesting and easy then anyone with their own website will! It's great to maximise the potential of my previously invisible website, which after all is my main "shop window". Thanks Rob for turning me onto something I was so reluctant to do myself. It's both saved me £100's in fees to an SEO company and my enquiries have doubled even after only two weeks! "

The Rob Kelly Approach to understanding and helping survivors of sexual abuse and rape

This course is written and presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH

The cost of attending this course is £295 (£195 IAPH/ICHP members/Students) – which includes refreshments and lunch on both days.

This course is written and presented by Rob Kelly, a hypnotherapist and trainer who has helped over two thousand victims of sexual abuse, over an eighteen year period.

The course will be based entirely around REAL case histories: some of which will be presented live on the day. Every delegate will receive comprehensive notes, an attendance certificate, and proof of 14 hours CPD. The course will be presented in a dynamic, colourful, and where possible, light-hearted manner, in order to facilitate a good group dynamic, and ease of learning.

To work successfully with the victims of sexual abuse, you must first
understand why and how abusers manage to abuse, and why they (often) get away with it undetected for many years.

This knowledge will help enable you to fully comprehend the very
powerful effects of GROOMING, DISTORTED THINKING, and
NORMALISATION – behaviours that often ‘trap’ the victims of abuse,
preventing them from being able to resolving their issues, and ‘unlock’
their own destructive behaviour traits.

This course will equip you with a good working knowledge and understanding of the issues surrounding Sexual Abuse; from the victim’s, perpetrators and therapeutic perspectives.

"I can heartily recommend this two-day training course: Rob Kelly is a rare breed .... not only is he a highly-skilled and knowledgeable clinician, he is also a superb presenter who possess the ability to impart his experience to others in a truly inspiring fashion."
Dr Mark Pummel MBBS MRCGP FRCPsych


Please beware that the course will go into depth about many emotionally-charged subjects, and delegates who are not used to discussing such subjects openly, may find the training quite challenging. It is for this reason that we also suggest delegates take up the special B&B price at the hotel (only £40 per night) in order to unwind and ‘de-brief’ on the Saturday evening.

This is a Module of the IAPH Advanced Diploma Programme - Successfully complete 8 modules, and you will be awarded the Advanced Diploma in Hypnotherapy and Hypnoanalysis


Free Association in Pure Hypnoanalysis

Free Association in Pure Hypnoanalysis

Presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH

The cost of attending this course is £295 (£195 IAPH members/Students) – which includes refreshments and lunch on both days.

B&B is available at the Hotel - at a reduced rate of £40

Free-Association is the amazingly effective process that enables people to completely and permanently resolve the unconscious causes of their anxiety, depression, eating disorder, phobia or other emotional or psychological problem.

Free Association is one of the most misunderstood of all therapeutic techniques, and yet, when administered correctly, is profoundly effective. The aim of this course is to equip you with the skills and knowledge to practice Free-Association successfully. The therapy, and more importantly, how to practice it, will be described in detail - the majority of the training will consist of listening to, and analysing, pre-recorded therapy sessions. Many different recordings, of various clients, at different stages of the therapeutic process will be studied in order to understand what most helps and hinders the therapeutic process.

Some of the topics discussed will be:

  • Why is ‘FA’ so successful, where other interventions fail?
  • The many ways that both the client (and therapist) can sabotage therapy
  • The effects of denial, dissociation, disavowel and grooming upon therapy
  • How to explain FA to your clients, and what to say if they get ‘stuck’
  • Learn when to talk, and when to stay quiet. What are the right things to say?
  • Understand what ‘true’ or ‘pure’ Free Association REALLY is
  • How to help a client to abreact, and to release their bottled-up emotions
  • Learn to spot red herrings, and use techniques like ‘automatic writing and drawing’
  • Learn why this technique the most natural and holistic of ALL therapies
  • How to use ‘clean’ and ‘reflective’ language effectively
  • Understand ‘recovered memory’, false-memory, and the law
  • Recognise the effects of distorted thinking and ‘normalisation’ on therapy

Rob Kelly FIAPH will present this dynamic and empowering course, which is open to any practicing therapists, or therapists in training. The content of the course will be quite explicit at times, and traumatic events may well be discussed in great depth.

"A unique insight into the subtle ways of helping a client through analysis. My success rate at getting clients through therapy in under 10 sessions has more than doubled! No more problems with resistance - the 'brick walls' are demolished before my clients ever know they are there. Understanding the pace and structure of an ideal session has helped me to become a better therapist."

Stop Smoking Easily - with 'The Rob Kelly Method'
The unique training program

written and presented By Rob Kelly FIAPH

Learn how to stop 95% of smokers - in just one session!

Learn from a GENUINE expert in this field who has stopped over 6350 smokers.

During this packed one-day course, you will learn EVERYTHING that you need to know in order to be able to stop 95% of the Smokers who walk through your door in just one hour-long session.

"The Rob Kelly Method is an amazingly powerful technique that is able to completely change a smokers belief system - into that of a non-smoker. Like most people I firmly believed I smoked because I was addicted to it - it didn't help that I was also a Doctor!
I had smoked solidly for 18 years and was in Rob's clinic for under an hour....
I haven't smoked, or wanted to smoke, ever since.

That was six years ago. Now, I use the Rob Kelly Method with my own patients. I have never witnessed a more successful anti-smoking technique."

Dr James Froggatt Phd.


A real session will be demonstrated before your very eyes and then dissected so you can understand the component parts. Stopping someone smoking permanently is a lot more involved than just giving them some suggestion therapy, and keeping your fingers crossed!

Rob will explain (in plain English):

  • How to attract smokers.
  • How to filter out the smokers who you DON'T want to take on.
  • How to help the smoker to overcome their ERRONEOUS BELIEF that they are addicted to it.
  • Why smoking is THE BEST habit in the world to have (no joke!).
  • That motivation (or willpower) is directly related to incentive (or benefit) and why this is the major reason most smokers fail to stop.
  • The cycle of dysfunctional behaviour and how it relates to smoking.
  • Why most smokers trying to quit are operating under a delusional belief system that continually undermines their attempts to quit.
  • How visualisation can keep the client feeling positive and focussed.
  • Why smokers are happy to pay £250 for a one-hour 'stop smoking easily' session .
  • Why the client's firm belief that they are a non-smoker is so critical.

Rob's method is unlike any other, and was developed over a 17 year period. Rob's background is as a Pure Hypnoanalyst - and this has given him a unique insight into the human psyche. 'The Method' fuses a selection of different psychological and analytical techniques in order to achieve a complete change in the clients belief system. It's only with a change in the belief system that permanent success can be guaranteed. Rob alone has stopped over 6350 smokers with his method, and has trained more than 150 other therapists. Together they have stopped tens of thousands....

Rob will prove to you, why having a single one-hour session is far more successful than having many sessions, an extra long session, or stopping over a period of weeks!

The media, and hence your local population, judge a hypnotherapist's skill and expertise by how good he or she is at stopping people smoking. Make sure you are very good at it!

Hypnosis. Sue Wilson and Gary Foster, who are both full-time Hypnotherapists at the Bedford Hypnotherapy Clinic, have worked with many couples helping and assisting them in having a pleasant birth experience and are now putting together a series of one-day workshops to teach hypnotherapists techniques which work!

  • How to create the perfect mind birth programme for Mum, Dad and Baby!
  • How to formulate suggestions to ease the fears and concerns
  • The Elman induction Vs The Progressive Relaxation induction - how to choose the right one!
  • How to structure the hypnosis sessions for Mum, Dad and Baby, plus extended family!

Some comments from previous course attendees:

"This course teaches how childbirth can be a relaxed and positive experience for all involved.  It is well presented and goes through every aspect of the birthing process including how to dispel fears and worries and explaining how self-hypnosis can help greatly with our own natural ability to give birth easily.  I now teach other expectant mums and dads the same thing and I thank you Sue, for an excellent course that can not only help parents through the birth itself, but also show them how to learn relaxation and positivity during the weeks afterwards, helping them to cope and bond with their new baby."

How to effectively Assess, Engage and Motivate your clients - with Rob Kelly

2012 dates to be confirmed





How to effectively Assess, Engage and Motivate your clients - with Rob Kelly

Written and presented by Rob Kelly FIAPH

"Whether the therapy you practise takes two hours, or two years, its success is determined within the first 30 mins...."

Course overview:
The aim of this course is to equip you with the knowledge, insight and skills necessary for effective assessment, engagement and motivation to help you create the very best possible relationship and environment for working with your client




This course is divided into three sections;

1) How to run an effective Initial Consultation:
How to assess the nature your client's presenting symptoms, and ascertain their suitability for therapy, while creating the rapport, trust and empathy necessary for a strong therapeutic relationship.

2) Recognising and working with clients with Personality Disorders:
It is generally accepted that people who suffer from personality disorders can find the resolution of anxiety symptoms very difficult - however Pure Hypnoanalysis can be extremely effective in resolving many of these problems.

We will discuss each of the main 'disorders' that clients are likely to consult a therapist with, and look at how these types of personality get formed/created, and how they are likely to react in therapy.

3) Understanding and working with Dissociative
Conditions:

Dissociation is sometimes referred to as 'The Hidden Epidemic', and affects millions of people worldwide. Most 'normal' people have perhaps one or two significant traumatic experiences in their childhood that have had a pathological effect, causing anxiety and depression. People who are dissociative tend to have experienced a very conflicting or traumatic childhood and they have had to develop different coping mechanisms to everyone else..... these 'coping mechanisms' can make life very difficult, even after the threat of trauma has passed...

Who is this course aimed at? - any healthcare professional, therapist, Doctor etc.

Some comments from previous course attendees:

Another excellent course delivered by Rob Kelly.
I believe a lot of therapists neglect the importance of gaining excellent rapport as quickly as possible with a client and a successful therapy can depend on this, whether it be one session or 10 sessions. This is one of Rob's strenghts and he imparts his knowledge of how do do the same in an inspiring way that gives delegates the confidence and belief that they can use the same techniques to achieve the same results. Rob also has tremendous knowledge of how to quickly professionally assess a client whilst still making the client feeling completely at ease and confident in their surroundings. I learned so much from this seminar and the techniques are now cast in stone and used effectively every day.
Jonathan Wootton, Hypnotherapist

As a professional therapist dealing with anxiety and mental health issues it is incredibly important to understand completely who can be treated, who can't be treated (and why) and how to manage clients during the (any) therapeutic process. Rob's demonstrations and lectures about the different personality types and their different strenths, weaknesses and motivations, along with a detailed view on mental disorders and psychosis, will really benefit my day to day work. After the course I feel more equipped dealing with each and every single TYPE of person seeking help for anxieties and symptoms, and therefore (any) therapy will certainly be easier and quicker and more successful for me AND for the client themselves. Rob is a wonderfully dynamic lecturer who enables detailed information to sink in easily. Regardless of whether your therapy involves hypnosis, if you deal with people, you should be on this course...

'Stevie knows his stuff inside and out and his relaxed, sincere and friendly manner gets it across in a way that leaves you in no doubt about it all. And if you are in any doubt by the end of the day, just volunteer to be stuck by a needle like I did! Stevie's techniques and powerful suggestions proved to me that I could have a needle inserted in the back of my hand with only the mildest of sensations that did not bother me at all. So now with my doubts completely dispelled I can take away everything I learned and experienced at the Pain Management seminar to further help my clients. Highly recommended.'

Pure Hypnoanalysis - an Introduction

2012 dates to be confirmed

Pure Hypnoanalysis - developed By Rob Kelly FIAPH

Question: What is the Fastest, most Effective and most Liberating type of therapy available today?

Answer: 'Pure' Hypno-analysis

'Pure' Hypno-analysis, is a brief-therapy, that brings together all the most successful hypno-analytical, and psychotherapeutic techniques.

This unique therapy can bring a person to a moment of 'surprising and liberating enlightenment' ridding them of their fears, phobias, anxieties, depression (and any other psychological and emotional symptoms) within about 8 hours.

Sounds unbelievable?  
This therapy is NOT; an NLP 'quick fix', some kind of 'fast phobia cure', suggestion therapy, or any one of a hundred or so similar therapies - these techniques DO NOT resolve the cause of the anxiety, they simply cover it up, or give the person a bit more control.

The nearest equivalent to 'pure' Hypnoanalysis, would be a traditional three or four year course of psychotherapy or psychoanalysis - but with better results.

The main reason WHY this therapy is so successful, is because, for the first time, we can understand actually where these emotional disorders come from, and how they are formed.   With this knowledge, it is comparatively easy to help a person come to a state of total resolution of their anxieties/fears.

Probably more amazing than the success of the therapy itself, is the fact that the process of therapy is so simple, and doesn't rely on a whole bag full of 'therapist tricks' - in order for it to work effectively. This therapy merely enhances the 'natural human process' to resolve emotional trauma and conflict - no other intervention is necessary.

To read about Rob Kelly - the guy who developed this technique - and to see him in action, go to www.rob-kelly.net

Whether you a student of psychology, a counsellor, a psychotherapist, a Doctor, a social worker, a policeman, a nurse - these two days will give you a tremendous amount of insight into human nature, and change your life! 'Pure' Hypnoanalysis is the ONLY therapy in the world, that can CURE symptoms such as emetophobia, coprophobia, social phobia, shy bladder.....


We believe that Pure Hypnoanalysis is THE single most effective therapy that exists in the world today!
Learn all the secrets of being a successful hypnoanalyst - In just two days! During this dynamic two-day course, you will be taught not only HOW, but WHY hypno-analysis is such an effective treatment. You will learn how YOU can achieve, in just 6 or 8 sessions, what would normally take about four years in a more traditional psychotherapy AND with more impressive results!

Hypnoanalysis is THE single most effective therapy that exists in the world today for resolving phobias, fears, anxieties, depression, eating disorders, confidence problems, sexual problems in fact ANY symptom that has a psychological component to it. This course is ideally suited to all therapists (or student therapists) who use any form of analytical therapy within their work. How is this course different to any other? Well, it is being presented by a leading expert in Hypno-analysis, someone with over 15 years, and 4000 clients worth of experience - Rob Kelly. Rob will demonstrate ALL the techniques you will ever need to use, AND explain HOW and WHY they work. Resistance, transference, abreaction, repression, regression, denial, false memories, catharsis, neurosis, phobias etc will all be explored and, more importantly, EXPLAINED in a very clear and understandable way. Learn why 'pin-point analysis', 'age regression', 'regression to cause', 'ideomotor signalling' and other 'find the cause' type therapies rarely do actually find the cause... OR resolve the problem!

To practice hypno-analysis successfully, you must first understand why we respond to trauma or emotional conflicts in our lives by creating anxieties, phobias and other symptoms. When you understand how and why these symptoms are created, it is much easier for you to help your clients to resolve them. Some of the knowledge you will gain during this course will include:

  • How and why we repress emotional conflicts.
  • The difference between denial, disavowal, suppression and repression.
  • Why, with certain types of symptoms, CBT, NLP or suggestion therapy are completely ineffective.
  • Why psychiatry's understanding and treatment of phobias is flawed, and usually just exacerbates the problem.
  • Why different people have different types of symptoms.
  • Why some personality types WANT to maintain their symptoms.
  • How to encourage and abreaction: how to enable a client to re-live a traumatic event, in order to resolve the symptoms caused by it.
  • How to treble your client base, AND your income!
  • The best hypnotic inductions to use (and which to not use).
  • Understanding Free Association, creating trust and rapport .
  • Negotiating with the client's subconscious.
  • Debriefing rape or trauma victims.
  • The use of 'Clean' and 'Reflective' language in therapy.

"I can heartily recommend this two-day training course: Rob Kelly is a rare breed .... not only is he a highly-skilled and knowledgeable clinician, he is also a superb presenter who possess the ability to impart his experience to others in a truly inspiring fashion."
Dr Mark Pummel MBBS MRCGP FRCPsych

"I have just attended the IAPH Pure Hypnoanalysis course. A fantastic informative 2 day course with excellent content leaving me inspired and enthused to set up my own practice. Rob’s informal yet energetic teaching style made the course enjoyable and the content easy to understand"

This course is essential for any therapist setting up in private practice.  The information and advice given is second to none, coming from a therapist with masses of experience who is not afraid of telling you about the pitfalls of private practice as well as teaching you about what works well.  Richard is a natural teacher and this course is informal but very informative, helping those willing to learn, how to gain 30+ clients a week.  Setting up on your own can be quite daunting, I know it was for me, but if you need to know anything at all about setting up a consulting room, advertising and websites, dealing with enquiries and many more aspects of private practice, then Richard is the person to talk to and this is the course to go on.
