This course has helped to pinpoint and relay a metaphorical story to a client (or in my case, to clients in a group setting) that they might rely on later on in a stressful or dangerous situation. It also helps me to understand that there needn’t be an immediate “ah-ha” moment for the client(s). Planting seeds can be more productive than working for an immediate response. I now understand that I needn’t anticipate big hugs and “oh, wow” kind of responses. Trust in the unconscious to works its way toward new a healthier solutions in the background.

Once you experience using conversational reframing you will notice how clients response to it. It is very impacting and I see my clients absorbing it and changing in front of me. The course is easy to to understand and it has been very user friendly to make it part of my sessions. It made me more aware that people think in a metaphorical way and it definitely broadens their perspectives. I will definitely recommend this course to my fellow colleagues.

Conversational reframing is an essential therapeutic tool on many levels. For a start, it helps to build rapport with the client and this trust is essential to allow them to commit to therapeutic interventions. It builds an awareness of how the language we use can either promote or interfere with the client’s recovery. Learning to use reframes allows the clients to ‘see’ a path forward, improving motivation and commitment to implement new ways of acting.

I would highly recommend this course. It has been one of the most valuable and important courses I have attended as a Physical Therapist (Osteopath) in nearly 40 years of practice! There is a wealth of genuine practical content. I believe the course was extremely good value and thought provoking. I believe for any Physical Therapist who wants to develop and improve their use of language there could hardly be a better course.

This course was really engaging and insightful. I’ve noticed that when using metaphors and imagery with clients, they tend to get more animated and say, “That’s it! That’s what it’s like!” It is then easy to loop back to and build on that imagery.
I found the examples in this course are also a great conversation starter in groups. When we share a metaphorical story, they create imagery around it and discuss the meaning behind it.

I found the reframing course very helpful in diving deep into how to move clients on from negative self talk or negative beliefs. There were many examples of how to take a limiting belief and use story or metaphor to shift away from it. I even caught myself using some of the techniques on my own thinking!

I was looking forward to doing the Conversational Reframing course as I was familiar with reframing but wanted a course that would go into more detail in a way that was educational but also applicable in a real world context. I wasn’t disappointed with it.
I was overwhelmed by some of the stories; I genuinely found them magical and beautiful, i.e. the story of the 2 monks is one that I’ll never forget.
The tone of the training was informative and informal, which I think is a testament to Mark and the other presenters.
The course was excellent value for money and had a lot of useful ideas that you can apply. I have already highlighted the next course with Mark that I want to go on.

This a such a thought-provoking, enjoyable and well presented course that you can’t help but be enraptured and educated by it. The examples are so clear and insightful that you can immediately bring them (or the essence of them) into your client sessions.

The course was a pleasant experience for me and reading the book in advance was helpful. I will integrate reframing in my coaching sessions and hopefully come back to you with feedback from a real-case use. If I get in trouble, I will let you know nevertheless. :)
I’ve recommended New Ways of Seeing already to some of my friends and I’ve started a discussion with my work colleagues about reframing. We’ve used it all the time in trainings (without knowing it is called reframing) and I think getting more of our trainers to take your online course will help a lot.
