“I have never used an online facility to be part of a training course before and was very hesitant about it working efficiently. I decided to sign up for the ‘Treating intrusive thoughts and the critical inner voice’ a few months ago because I wanted to personally get insight into why I think and behave in certain ways and this presentation explained a lot. Additionally, I am in my last few months of the ABC Level 4 Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy and felt the information gained from this presentation would enable me to have a deeper understanding of some of my clients, whilst enabling me to share strategies with them and my work colleagues. After this positive experience of using webinar I would definitely recommend this type of online training. Although I was in my home I felt part of the group whom were also participating.” Marie Claire T. Trainee Therapist

“Very interesting theories and methods of addressing the inner critical voice”. — Suman G., Sufferer

“Thank you so much for this webinar.  I have learnt a lot about neurobiology and neurochemistry, which will certainly  inform my work with clients.  Also the dietary side of increasing serotonin.  Wale is very knowledgeable, but able to convey the material in a way which even a lay person like myself can understand!  I will take away the encouragement to use self compassion, for myself and for my clients.” Christine C., Counsellor, Supervisor & Trainer (20/7/20)

“I found the course informative and will be able to use the information in my practice immediately. “Nancy M., Wellbeing Clinical Manager (20/7/20)

“The style, delivery and knowledge of the trainer was excellent. Detailed handouts and added bonus of the meditations with scripts. Refreshing to hear the holistic importance and how the brain misfunctions after trauma which can be from dna or when in the womb. Will support me to adapt and flow more smoothly to each client’s individual need. It was online so I was comfortable at home and finding I am able to participate in more trainings then pre-Covid as no costs of time off or for having to pay for dog sitters, no wage loss, plus no added costs for travel/accommodation/snacks – win win!” Kay E. Emotional & Chronic Pain Therapist (20/7/20)

I wanted to say a heartfelt thank you. I am a psychotherapist and I’ve done a lot of trauma work but never have I experienced such a calm, compassionate and useful workshop as this. I have a vicious inner critic that I have been working on but your explanation and strategies have immediately helped. Jane K., Psychotherapist (25/8/20)

This was a very quick run through of the brain anatomy and explanation to what happens to your brain to create the thoughts / problems and a quick run through of the types of inner critics there are and easy steps you can make personally to try and reduce or live with them. It was very interesting. Ffion S., Trainee Counsellor (25/8/20)

I found it extremely helpful both on a professional and personal level. You explained things very clearly and I really liked your analogies and your antidote statements to the inner critics archetypes. Susan M. (25/8/20)

I really enjoyed the course & found it extremely useful. It gave information that I can use directly on myself and with my clients. Katie R., Trainee Psychotherapist (25/8/20)

I feel that this was delivered at the right pace and time was given for 

questions, the use of the breakout rooms was nice too. Nova G. Counsellor (25/8/20)

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 everything. Really recommended course, thanks so 

much Wale. Samantha K., Psychologist (20/7/20)

This course is very helpful and complements many other courses I have attended with Wale. I’m sure many of us at some point or another in our lives have experienced the ‘inner critic’ and I would definitely recommend this on both a personal and professional basis. I love how an holistic approach is viewed and adapted which is so important. I found the vagus nerve exercise particularly useful as I work with many young people and teenagers with ADHD, Autism, and trauma related. Thank you Wale for sharing your experience and information which is so helpful. Diane M. (2/7/20)

I must admit to preferring the course being online as it was more convenient and the fact that I could go back and re-listen suited me. Jackie R., Birth and Postnatal Doula (2/7/20)

Fantastic event. Very well researched and very well delivered. Paula S., Psychospiritual Soul Mechanic (2/7/20)

Thank you for the Treating Intrusive Thoughts webinar this evening, it was fascinating and I learned so many new things on the relationship between feelings and the brain as well as the issues around food and seratonin. Lots to think about!

Joanne H. (2/7/20)

Thoroughly appreciated level of information and delivery. Beryl V., Teacher & Workshop Facilitator (2/7/20)

I have really enjoyed our session today.  It has given me ideas of how to work more effectively with my clients due to my own understanding.  I can use the 8 critics to help them understand themselves and therefore facilitating therapeutic change.  Also highlighted my own awareness of early life issues and how these have in the past led to anger and isolation. Also my own inner critical voice and how at times this can get out of hand and how my diet can affect and have an impact on this. Sam B. Counsellor (2/7/20)

Wale is very good at what he does and made the webinar very interesting and a joy to watch. Sharon M. (22/6/20)

Permanent recovery from anxiety-related disorders often escape the sufferer for three main reasons:

1.  The root causes of anxiety disorders are not always adequately treated or even identified.

2.  The perpetuating intrusive thoughts and inner critical voice which sustain the anxiety disorder are not effectively dealt with.

3.  The brain wiring that constantly reinforces the habits of anxiety and worry are often overlooked and left un-dislodged.

Please see the full details of the course below.
