Specialist Certificate in Ego State Therapy (EST)

Our Ego States Therapy (EST) course equips therapists with cutting-edge psychodynamic technique, significantly enhancing their capability to address serious emotional disorders.

 

EST is a sophisticated analytical approach that views the mind as a family of subpersonalities, or ego states, which together form our sense of self. Each ego state varies from normal and functional to deeply problematic, playing a distinct role in shaping our behaviours, emotions, and thoughts. By enabling clients to understand and work with the structure and individual components of their mind, EST provides them with a profound sense of personal empowerment as they gain control over their inner turmoil and reclaim their lives.

EST is particularly effective in treating a wide range of complex symptoms, including addictions, extreme behavioural issues, and complex trauma. It’s a beacon of hope for those who have struggled with conditions resistant to other therapeutic methods. Additionally, EST is integral to treating psychiatric disorders such as dissociative identity disorder, offering a lifeline to those in need of deep and lasting change.

 

On its own, EST is a remarkably effective therapy. When integrated with approaches such as Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), it creates a powerful unified system that empowers clients to overcome even the most challenging issues.

Eligibility

The course is open to qualified hypnotherapists and/or other therapists and healthcare professionals who have a working knowledge of psychological trauma and a background in hypnotherapy.
