Continuing Professional Development

Open Mind has been running Professional Training Events for the treatment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, or ME, (Research for ME/CFS) for the last 3 years. I have met professionals with all level of experience and all levels of training, from university qualified Psychotherapists to privately trained Hypnotherapists. Whatever your background, Open Mind can offer you an exceptional quality of Continuing Professional Development which incorporates both professional knowledge and personal development. We have trained more than 40 students across the country and overseas and have their details registered on the Qualified ME/CFS therapists page.

Testimonials:

"I am just dropping a line to say what a great training weekend that was. I have to say that your knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject was infectious and along with your excellent engaging teaching style it made for an outstanding event.” AW—Clinical Psychologist, Cardiff

“My belief in you as a committed therapist to working effectively with ME was confirmed by everything you did this weekend. I am unable to find the exact words to say thanks for the whole experience” AA— Hypnotherapist, BF Germany

“Having seen your presentation at the APHP conference you had a lot to live up to, and there was a part of me that wondered whether it could get any better than that. Well, it did, and I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone wanting not only to work with ME/CFS, but also anyone wanting to round off their learning and gain more insight into working with clients generally.” JH—Hypnotherapist, Surrey

“I noticed I was fully engaged throughout the weekend, something that has not always been the case on other workshops attended” KT—Hypnotherapist, Cardiff

“Excellent delivery, very good rapport with the group.”

“A good background to understanding ME and how I might start to help sufferers. But I also gained the ability to use a range of techniques, both with ME, and also in my wider practice.”
