This workshop will explore the anatomy and physiology of the brain and how this knowledge contributes to our ability to provide effective psychological interventions/support to all our clients. We will examine normal and abnormal brain anatomy, normal and abnormal physiology and how these might be investigated. Throughout the workshop delegates will be encouraged to consider how they can apply this to their own practise area.

The workshop is the first of a series of four planned to provide counselling psychologists with neuropsychological knowledge to apply within their own area of practise. Delegates are advised to attend these workshops in order to gain the maximum from their attendance as delegates will be encouraged to carry out work between workshops to aid integration of neuropsychology into their practice. Each workshop will encourage delegates to consider how their learning maps onto the Neuropsychology competences.

Who is the course intended for?

This workshop will be particularly useful for those psychologists at the end of their accredited training or post qualified who wish to extend their neuropsychological knowledge. This will be a combination of both theory and practice so attendees will be able to take their learning back to their workplace.
