Compulsive Behavioural Disorders

Persons suffering from compulsive behaviour disorders are usually subjected to advice and guidance which is somewhat one-sided, often based on ignorance of the subject in question and knowledge of the areas of help available.

This course is formulated and facilitated for the interest of the more enlightened student who can look beyond the orthodox approach and appreciate that individuals who are suffering from established patterns of compulsive eating, dieting, working, gambling, spending, exercising, are involved in addictive behaviours.

As well as being progressive diseases, these behaviours have many harmful effects that disrupt and prevent an honest intimacy and interaction in a family unit.
