Validating Me
Communication is an essential part of our daily lives, but when people feel vulnerable, feelings can run high and at these crucial moments relationships break down and this is what we want to avoid.
Person-Centred Validation is a process by which a therapeutic relationship is built on the practitioner’s congruence, unconditional positive regard and empathetic understanding shown to the individual. It focuses on the feelings rather than the content of speech. The practitioner can demonstrate their skills in observation, encouragement, listening, pacing, rephrasing, voice tones, exploring, and summarising. They feel the practitioner's empathetic understanding and responds accordingly to their deep psychological need is met, confidence and identity are restored.
This certificate is ideal for people who want to use therapeutic interaction skills in their daily role. We believe this is the first of its kind in the UK and therefore warrants the title of Therapeutic Dementia Practitioner. For more details and to download a booking form follow this link.
