Our workshops are all built on the latest developments in psychology and cognitive-behavioural approaches. Our aim is to give structured feet-on-the-ground presentations that provide a practical approach to a variety of subjects.

Anger control

These workshops offer a structured approach and provide essential information about skills in managing anger in the workplace and learning alternative coping strategies.

Stress management for employers and employees

Stress is now held to be the leading reason for sickness absence and seems to be an increasing fact of life. Some of our workshops deal with the employer’s responsibilities and strategies for assessing and analysing stress factors. They also provide solutions to creating policies and strategies to deal with stress. We also provide workshops that are geared towards giving employees a comprehensive yet simple structured approach to managing their own stress levels.
