A special CPD opportunity for HG Dip graduates – Watching HG Therapy in Action
Human Givens College tutor Véronique Chown has developed an exciting new HG course for qualified HG therapists (those who have passed Part II of the HG diploma and beyond). Entitled 'Watching HG Therapy in action', this new course gives attendees the opportunity to observe some unique films of Joe Griffin and Ivan Tyrrell giving therapy sessions to several different patients, and discuss afterwards what was done and why.
This is a great chance to view more examples from therapeutic sessions carried out on the HG Diploma course which show just how subtle, yet incredibly powerful, the human givens approach to therapy can be.
