Since then, through FDP, Jan has continued to run post counselling training courses and study days with a conviction that experiential learning is imperative for the continued development and deepening of the core attitudinal qualities of empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard, which are crucial to Person-Centred and other relationship focussed therapies. \u00a0She has been particularly keen to encourage therapists to extend their practice to people with learning disabilities, many of whom suffer silently from their legacies of childhood abuse.<\/p>\n<p>A background in lecturing in psychology and special needs, and her experiences over 30+ years since working with her first client in therapy, Jan feels blessed to have worked in a variety of settings. \u00a0With a core of therapy and supervision, she also consults with filmmakers, and supports palliative care teams in their work. \u00a0Jan feels she does one thing, but does it in a variety of ways![\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paultucker.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paul Tucker Photography<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column css_animation=&#8221;fadeInRight&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;401&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1764688200849{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-right: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;padding-left: 20px !important;background-color: #fe8a40 !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;thoughtoftheday&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Thought for a while<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cMy wish for you<br \/>\nIs that you continue.<br \/>\nContinue to be who and<br \/>\nHow you are, to astonish<br \/>\nA mean world with<br \/>\nYour acts of kindness.<br \/>\nContinue to allow humor<br \/>\nTo lighten the burden of your tender heart\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong><i class=\"\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"\" style=\"font-size: large;\"><em>Maya Angelou<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602145124832{padding-top: 150px !important;padding-bottom: 75px !important;background-color: #fafafa !important;}&#8221; el_id=&#8221;courses&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;341&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602140798454{padding-right: 30px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Study Days Summer 2026 &#8211; on ZOOM and one event in person!<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Before the pandemic, all study days were small groups in person, days when practitioners could engage with the topic and also share lunch and breaks together, something I miss in the Zoom days. On a practical level, Zoom does allow people to participate from wider afield, and to minimise the costs in time and travel. Each study day costs \u00a370, to include handouts, recommended reading and CPD Certificate of Attendance. Please know that if finances have continued to be affected by the cost-of-living crisis or the various viruses which continue to impact our lives, you are welcome to join any of the study days either on a trainee rate of \u00a330 or free (assuming there is already a viable group).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Each day will consist of some input on the topic, experiential processing, and space to discuss practice issues relating to the theme. Each workshop will be from 10.00am until 4.00pm with a lunch break of 1 \u00bc hours when online, to allow for Zoom rest. If you would like to attend, please send the attached slip.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Each day is facilitated by Jan Hawkins, a Person-Centred therapist, supervisor and trainer, having a passion for experiential, ongoing learning opportunities for practitioners.

It affects many Survivors of childhood trauma long into their adult lives. Survivors may have lived continuously with nightmares, sleep disturbances, hypervigilance, hyperarousal, self-harming, dissociation, self-esteem and self-concept issues and a variety of other difficulties. Others who have lived with chronic trauma in relationships of domestic violence, and other chronic trauma experiences, develop the same painful symptoms of CPTSD.

This may involve leaving the body, numbing out, splitting off, depersonalising and\/or derealising. The experience and expression of dissociative process can be confusing for therapists as well as for the person experiencing it. The vulnerability of people experiencing dissociative processes to being pathologised and diagnosed with various mental illnesses (i.e. psychosis, personality disorders and so on) comes from a lack of understanding of this survival strategy.

Most professional memberships (e.g. BACP, NCPS, UKCP, etc) require members to have a clinical will or working agreement in place. This day will be a space to review the clinical will and\/or to create one.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<a href=\"mailto:jan@janhawkins.co.uk?subject=What happens to our clients in the event of our sudden death or illness?\" target=\"_self\" data-hover-background-color=#ff680a data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  medium\" style=\"color: #ffffff; margin: 30px auto; background-color: #fe8a40;\">Enquire<\/a>[\/vc_column][vc_column][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1696231437293{margin-top: 100px !important;margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">OnlineEvents Webinars to purchase and\/or view:<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1696231427237{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;center-my-button&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Trauma, Dissociation and the Person-Centred Approach Workshop with Jan Hawkins<\/h3>\n<h4>Feb 2023<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.courses-onlinevents.co.uk\/courses\/trauma-dissociation-and-the-person-centred-approach-workshop-with-jan-hawkins?ref=c7b0a0\" target=\"_blank\" data-hover-background-color=#ff680a data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  medium\" style=\"color: #ffffff; margin: 30px auto; background-color: #fe8a40;\">Read More<\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;center-my-button&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>The Impact of Trauma at Different Developmental Stages: A PCA Perspective Workshop with Jan Hawkins<\/h3>\n<h4>Apr 2023<\/h4>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.courses-onlinevents.co.uk\/courses\/the-impact-of-trauma-at-different-developmental-stages-a-pca-perspective-workshop-with-jan-hawkins?ref=c7b0a0\" target=\"_blank\" data-hover-background-color=#ff680a data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  medium\" style=\"color: #ffffff; margin: 30px auto; background-color: #fe8a40;\">Read More<\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;center-my-button&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Necessary and Sufficient?

Some therapeutic traditions refer to \u2018plural selves\u2019, multiplicity, Internal Family Systems \u2013 more recent modalities refer to \u2018parts work\u2019 and in the Person-Centred world to \u2018configurations of self\u2019. Each are describing those roles we play where our behaviours and feelings can be different. The person we are in our working lives can feel and behave very differently from the person we are within our families. This workshop will invite participants to explore those inner dimensions in a fun way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">There is a potency for healing available in fairy tales, myths and stories. Certain stories grip us, whilst others leave us cold. The story of Winnie the Pooh can be rediscovered in many ways, one of which is reflecting on our own inner landscapes, and aspects of ourselves. This day will allow personal reflection on inner states and characters as they relate to Christopher Robin and friends. Whether you have read the books before, or never even heard of Winnie the Pooh (impossible!!) \u2013 This is a day for a light hearted exploration with potential treasures to be found. A day for personal reflection and fun! Who knows where it might take us?! The day will take place at Debden House, (address above)with a beautiful garden, and 50 acres of woodland outside. The perfect setting to meet Winnie the Pooh and his friends.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This workshop will finish at 4.00pm with half an hour break for refreshments. Weather permitting, those who have chosen group or individual walks before dinner will take those, whilst those who have chosen an encounter opportunity will also choose whether that will be inside or outside and for a space of up to two hours pre dinner.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">After dinner space for socializing, rest and appreciating the outdoors.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;538&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1680260936111{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span class=\"\" lang=\"EN-US\">Sunday 10am<br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"\" lang=\"EN-US\">Anxiety and Dissociation: Creative Survival<br \/>\n<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Where there is chronic abuse in childhood, many learn to survive by dissociating from the experience. This may involve leaving the body, numbing out, splitting off, depersonalising and\/or derealising. This day will focus on what dissociation is, how it acts as a somewhat protective strategy, and how we may empower individuals who may be experiencing dissociation now. Having explored our own configurations of self with Winnie the Pooh, we will have seen dissociation as part of human experience, and this will help in understanding when trauma has taken people into deeper realms of dissociative experiencing. Whereas Saturday was a personal development day, today brings us to a professional focus where we seek to deepen our ability to come alongside those who have survived trauma by developing entrenched ways of being in the world which were creative survival strategies. Recognising and supporting our clients who live with dissociative experiencing and\/or Dissociative Identity Experience (I prefer this term to DID, Dissociative Identity Disorder) requires deepening of our core attitudinal qualities, by learning more about these complex survival skills.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>We finish the day at 4.00pm, refreshments are served and we vacate Debden House by 5.00pm<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;center-my-button&#8221; offset=&#8221;vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs&#8221;]<a href=\"mailto:jan@janhawkins.co.uk?subject=Foundation for the Developing Person\" target=\"_self\" data-hover-background-color=#ff680a data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  medium\" style=\"color: #ffffff; margin: 30px auto; background-color: #fe8a40;\">Enquire<\/a>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602144793764{padding-top: 150px !important;padding-bottom: 75px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1680771825902{margin-top: 30px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;max-width-500&#8243;]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.heartwoodcharity.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter \" src=\"https:\/\/static.wixstatic.com\/media\/20f181_6849019f13ac4c71be99c5585ba94de5~mv2.png\/v1\/fill\/w_250,h_226,al_c,q_85,usm_0.66_1.00_0.01,enc_auto\/20f181_6849019f13ac4c71be99c5585ba94de5~mv2.png\" width=\"179\" height=\"162\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heartwoodcharity.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Heartwood<\/a> is a wonderful Person-Centred charity headed up by Chip Ponsford and Rab Erskine working therapeutically in nature &#8211; do check out their website. \u00a0Heart Wood offers residential CPD training courses in the Heart Wood approach, and facilitated wellbeing days for staff teams.\u00a0To find out more about their programme, please contact Emma at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:admin@heartwoodcharity.org\" data-auto-recognition=\"true\">admin@heartwoodcharity.org<\/a>\u00a0or call 01434 607726.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; el_id=&#8221;publications&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602597231937{padding-top: 150px !important;padding-bottom: 50px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Publications<\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602597282025{padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; el_class=&#8221;center-my-button&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;378&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602597682453{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Collateral-Damage-Casualties-Alcohol-Anthology\/dp\/1659066395\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=Collateral+Damage%3A+Casualties+of+Alcohol+Misuse%3A+An+Anthology&amp;qid=1602597620&amp;sr=8-1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Collateral Damage: Casualties of Alcohol Misuse: An Anthology<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Paperback \u2013 17 Jan. 2020<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This anthology contains chapters written by individuals who have been affected by loving\/caring about someone close, whose use of alcohol has impacted on the relationship. There is so much literature focusing on the experience of alcohol addiction or dependency in the medical and professional helper material, but scant attention given to those who live with and\/or are affected by the person whose drinking is causing harm. Those who have given their time to this project have done so using their own voices. This gives the collection a variety of styles which provides the reader with a wide set of experiences. The editor is eager to encourage writing as a therapeutic option when processing painful experiences, especially where the individuals are unable &#8211; due to their loved one&#8217;s alcohol misuse &#8211; to have the open dialogue which might help them. Sadly in all the cases presented herein, the contributors are left to manage the effects of another person&#8217;s departure into a different world, a person they have loved and cared for. For those who love someone who misuses alcohol, this book will offer company. The contributors have shared experiences they have previously found impossible to talk about. Readers may find themselves in these stories, and as a result, feel less lonely.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Collateral-Damage-Casualties-Alcohol-Anthology\/dp\/1659066395\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=Collateral+Damage%3A+Casualties+of+Alcohol+Misuse%3A+An+Anthology&amp;qid=1602597620&amp;sr=8-1\" target=\"_blank\" data-hover-background-color=#ff680a data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  medium\" style=\"color: #ffffff; margin: 30px auto; background-color: #fe8a40;\">Buy Now<\/a>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; el_class=&#8221;center-my-button&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;372&#8243; img_size=&#8221;medium&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; onclick=&#8221;custom_link&#8221; img_link_target=&#8221;_blank&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1602597153557{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}&#8221; qode_css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Listening-their-Voices-Person-Centred-Approach\/dp\/1979960992\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=Listening+to+their+Voices%3A+The+Person-Centred+Approach+to+Autistic+Spectrum+Disorder&amp;qid=1602596634&amp;sr=8-1&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Listening to their Voices: The Person-Centred Approach to Autistic Spectrum Disorder<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Paperback \u2013 17 Dec. 2017<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">This book includes verbatim interview contributions from individuals who have ASD, their parents, siblings, and some professionals.

Although the effects of learning difficulties and the effects of society&#8217;s treatment of people with learning difficulties are lifelong and often severe, counselling and healing are possible. The author argues that even those people who have the most severe learning disabilities can benefit from counselling, and not simply from behaviour management or medication to manage and control them. Jan Hawkins integrates 15 years&#8217; experience of counselling and her 25 years&#8217; experience as a mother of a person with learning difficulties. The book contains many moving accounts of the healing process and detailed examples of interdisciplinary working and the power the Person-Centred Approach offers for those who are metaphorically and often literally voiceless.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/Voices-Voiceless-Person-Centred-Approaches-Difficulties\/dp\/1898059411\/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&amp;keywords=Voices+of+the+Voiceless%3A+Person-Centred+Approaches+for+People+with+Learning+Difficulties&amp;qid=1602597477&amp;sr=8-1\" target=\"_blank\" data-hover-background-color=#ff680a data-hover-color=#ffffff class=\"qbutton  medium\" style=\"color: #ffffff; margin: 30px auto; background-color: #fe8a40;\">Buy Now<\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; background_image=&#8221;320&#8243; padding_top=&#8221;120&#8243; padding_bottom=&#8221;100&#8243; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column]<div class='testimonials_holder clearfix light '><div class=\"testimonials testimonials_carousel\" data-show-navigation=\"yes\" data-animation-type=\"fade\" data-animation-speed=\"\" data-auto-rotate-slides=\"10\"><ul class=\"slides\"><li id=\"testimonials438\" class=\"testimonial_content\"><div class=\"testimonial_content_inner\"><div class=\"testimonial_text_holder center_align\"><div class=\"testimonial_text_inner\"><p>Collateral Damage<br\/><br\/>\r\n\"Jan Hawkins' decision to let the contributors (victims) choose the style for their chapters promotes originality and allows them to express themselves freely.
