Are you ready to transform the way you support clients struggling with stress, anxiety, and burnout?

Our new CPD course for hypnotherapists, The Burnout Ladder, is designed to equip you with practical tools, insightful frameworks, and a deeper understanding of burnout. Whether your clients are facing workplace pressures or life’s broader challenges, this course is your gateway to effective identification, prevention, and recovery strategies.

Who is this course for?

This course is ideal for hypnotherapists who want to expand their toolkit to include a deeper understanding of the burnout phenomenon and its root causes. With burnout often concealed behind layers of stress and anxiety, this course will help you uncover these patterns in your clients, even in the earliest stages.

If you’ve ever worked with clients who feel overwhelmed and can’t pinpoint why, or those who seem stuck in cycles of exhaustion, The Burnout Ladder will provide the clarity and resources you need.

What you’ll learn

This half-day course is packed with actionable insights, discussions, and tools to deepen your practice. Here’s what to expect:

1. Understanding burnout

Explore definitions of burnout, including WHO frameworks, and the latest research.
Learn to identify who is at risk – beyond just work-related pressure.
Breakout discussions and insights into the prevalence of burnout in modern life.

2. Causes of burnout

Delve into human responses to pressure and the habits that form burnout traps.
Explore how burnout intersects with life circumstances and other underlying challenges.

3. The Burnout Ladder® framework

Learn the innovative six-rung ladder structure to outline the stages of burnout.
Gain a new language to understand, prevent, and resolve burnout – starting with prevention.

4. Detecting burnout

Understand how to use a 60-question burnout questionnaire to uncover symptoms and triggers.

Learn to interpret qualitative and quantitative data, with practical role plays and coaching scenarios.

5. Treatment approaches

Discover 18 practical tools for burnout prevention and recovery.

Develop personalised treatment plans to suit each client’s unique challenges and preferences.

Integrate these tools seamlessly into your existing hypnotherapy practice.

Why choose the burnout ladder?

Burnout isn’t just about work – it’s about life, baggage, and responses to pressure. This transformative course doesn’t just help you assist your clients; it helps you enhance your understanding of stress and mental health. With the tools provided, you’ll feel confident tackling burnout in its many forms, empowering your clients to thrive.

About your tutor:

Alan Muskett is a wellbeing trainer, mindfulness coach, hypnotherapist, and now, an author. Giving up a 30-year career in food manufacturing in 2019, he turned his attention to helping others get over what he suffered himself – burnout.

Hence, in 2024, he wrote and published his first book, The Burnout Ladder – How to Thrive in a Chaotic Workplace.

He works with individuals and teams to build resilience and prevent burnout, ensuring they have the tools to thrive and not just survive.

Using skills and experience he has picked up in both his business life as well as his mindfulness and hypnotherapy practices, he has developed a practical programme for coaches and therapists to help others avert this growing work/life balance crisis.

Identifying typical self-defeating human traps that lead us down the path to burnout, and a clear self-monitoring structure via the ladder metaphor, he provides solutions to potential burnout risks at whatever rung the client might be on.

He is hoping to become known as “The Lord of the Rungs”.

Cost: Discounted rate for members of the GHR, NCH and BIH – £115 (standard price £125)
