She was asked to contribute to the Handbook of Hypnosis Techniques Vol 2 edited by Mark P Jensen, where she described Rapid Reversal Therapy: Looking for the Pearl. These techniques were developed during her years in General practice where she needed to work relatively quickly with patients who were often only there for 10-minute consultations. She has developed multiple courses for education, general practice and hospital staff dealing with many diverse subjects from communication to remodelling services within NHS. She was chair of one of the first patient Treatment Pathways for Breast cancer.

Am Festival selbst hält Long, Kathleen (GB) die folgenden Beiträge (Vortragssprache: Englisch):

Vortrag (45 min): How to utilise the dreams, ideas and life experience of clients*

How to utilise the dreams, ideas and life experience of clients to help them reach their objectives.

I will present cases using a simple advert technique where the patient makes a choice about their future based on their past experience and what they want for their future.

Workshop (90 min): Utilisation – using what the patient presents to you*

In my experience the patient always gives you the solution. You need to be in good rapport and pay attention very closely or you will miss it.
