Brilliant delivery of the course in an easy to understand format. The workshop helped me to get a better understanding of the effect trauma can have on the brain and how to treat this. Amanda P. Trainee Counsellor (9/2/22)

Very, very good, the lecturer’s delivery was wonderful, simultaneously calm and easy yet also highly informed and informative. Penelope J., Counsellor (9/2/22)

There was so much useful information here and I’m glad I took the course. Would easily recommend to professionals and survivors alike as it is accessible but still pushes knowledge and understanding. Very clear and engaging, good pace and good sense of humour. Michelle J., Trainee Counsellor (21/1/22)

It was such an amazing course and I feel I’ve learnt a lot. I hope to apply it to my own counselling work as a therapist. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for passing on your wonderful wisdom. Claire B. Therapist 13/11/21 

Very good course content, delivered beautifully by Wale, whose voice had an immediate calming effect and broke down any perceived barriers between trainer and trainee. Fascinating insight into how the brain’s response to trauma impacts on the body. Emma C. Counsellor (13/11/21)

The C-PTSD course clarified why I have been feeling the way I do.  It helped me make sense of physical symptoms and emotional overwhelm through recognising C-PTSD as an issue with the brain and that my emotional and physical recovery & healing cannot be forced. I have gained awareness to be patient and compassionate with myself in taking time to recover. I appreciated being able to ask questions that were relevant to me and to hear responses from other attendees.  It was valuable to learn about the impact of C-PTSD on their lives and their physical experiences too.  Wendy F. Coach & Author (2/11/21)

“Last time I had this detailed and such ‘not easy to forget’ training was about 15 years ago.  I can not find anything that I did not enjoy about this course, instead I feel I need more training like this.” Pumuzile N. CCS Counsellor (10/9/20)

“I absolutely loved this course! I highly recommend to those who are looking for a detailed scientific way of doing personal development around trauma if you are going to use the knowledge gained in a professional way.” Amanda B., Transitional Coach (10/9/20)

“The course was simply explained in layman’s language that I can relate to.  It was insightful, very well presented at a pace that was really helpful.

“I attended the all day webinar yesterday. I found it really helpful. There was a lot of neurobiology and neuro-chemistry which I really appreciated, that was what I was looking for. There is a lot to digest but I look forward to reflecting on the power point and my notes in due course. I am currently training in Internal Family Systems and hope to do training in sensorimotor psychotherapy and found yesterday’s presentation helpful in consolidating my belief in bringing in the somatic. Anyway, thank you for your engaging and knowledgeable teaching.” Paula H.

“I very much enjoyed your informative online workshop. I made lots of notes and feel more confident supporting clients with PTSD (complex) now as a counsellor. Thank you.” Zafar, A.

“I really enjoyed today’s webinar. What I have learnt from this course is this; I work intuitively with clients blending psychology into my modalities as you know, this course showed me that I am on the right track and can put the science behind it in a more understandable format. Thank you once again, Wale, very enjoyable. Kind regards,” Paula, S.

“Thank you for this online course. I really enjoyed learning from your experiences and reflecting on how I can help some of the clients I am working with. I would recommend the course to someone like me newly qualified and deciding on an area to specialise in. You made what is a complex area easier to understand and I will now embark on more training on PTSD and CPTSD.” Fiona

“Thank you for a great online course. As a practicing counsellor you have built my knowledge on how to assess where a client is in their C-PTSD journey. I feel able to keep myself safe with an understanding of their process and how to support the client on their healing journey. Thank you so much for your information. It was eye opening and practical and I can’t wait to use it in practice. Kind regards.” Sebastian H., Counsellor

“The course was excellent and well presented. It covered a lot of useful material and has enhanced my ability to identify and work with clients with CPTSD. Usually I would not have been able to attend because the venue is outside London, but because it was online I could. Siata M., Integrative Counsellor

“Very interesting theories and methods of addressing complex PTSD”. — Suman G., Sufferer

I would highly recommend this course as a resource for understanding the basis of cPTSD, to assist in psychoeducation and processing the origins of behaviour and ultimately working as part of therapeutic alliance to resolve these issues with clients. It has an excellent balance of origins, background information and resources for healing, and the recording provided allows for additional processing time and further study by use of the references. Rachel T., Student Counsellor (15/8/20)

Thank you so much for today’s course presentation, I really enjoyed the content layout and the respect and depth given in such sensitive subject areas. I am so glad I jumped onboard because not only did I learn information I can pass on but I also gained some knowledge into my own life and am now motivated to research further to educate both myself and my clients. This was my first course with yourself and now I am already booked on to two further courses! Your ability to answer questions across multiple subjects linking them together such as trauma, autism and the biology behind the relevant processes really is amazing. Cheryl G. Therapist (15/8/20)

Many thanks for the presentation, this was my second event with you and I thought it was excellent. The magic (if you will) is that you keep everything in the here and now, whether it’s the symptoms, recovery or neuroscience. As a practitioner this is incredibly helpful, both reflectively and with an eye on future work. I wish I had some critique for you but I’m left only with more appetite. Nicholas W., Psychotherapist (25/7/20)

I really enjoyed the layout of the course and how it was broken down into bite sized chunks, especially for such a difficult subject. The course content and language made it very accessible to me as a practioner and the course facilitation was excellent too. Sharon R., Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist 25/7/20

Thanks again for another excellent session. I found the C-PTSD a very good compliment to the Trauma workshop and would highly recommend both to anyone interested in the field. I was reassured by the length of time it takes to stabilise some clients, and I will use the psychoeducation in my practice. I look forward to implementing the later stages and providing my clients with a practical way forward. Philip B., Trainee Therapist (25/7/20)

Today’s course “Treating Complex Post – Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) was an in depth learning experience delivered in a friendly way. The A.S.I.E.C.C framework for healing and practical tips included were so helpful for anyone working with patients or in a caring environment or anyone wanting to understand their own personal journey to recovery from trauma. Gretsky C., Dental Hygienist and Sports Massage Therapist (10/7/20)

Loved it! This is my second MindBody Breakthrough event. Wale is a great speaker who makes you feel welcome. His knowledge and experience is second to none and I look forward to revisiting the content of the course to use with clients. Heather S., CBT and Emotional Therapeutic Counsellor (10/7/20)

I thoroughly enjoyed the course and found it very interesting. I am looking forward to playing it back once I receive the recording so as to go over the bits that maybe went over my head the first time. Really recommended course, thanks so much Wale. Samantha K., Psychologist (10/7/20)
