Enhance the Individual Learning Process: A Case Report

Director, Sensory Systems Training, Glasgow, UK
John McWhirter: I’ve earned a BA (hon) in Psychology, University of Strathclyde (1982). I have thirty years of experience in developing new therapeutic and educational change work for children, adults, families, and organizations which have included extensive experience working with children in the classrooms, family homes, street corners, and the traditional office setting. I’ve worked as a therapist, trainer, researcher, and organizational consultant. I am the creator of DBM® and Systemic Consultancy and Therapy and the Director of the University Master of “Psychological Intervention with DBM®: from Personal Development to Working with the Client”, as well as the University Diploma in Ericksonian Hypnosis, both organized by the Department of Developmental and Educational Psychology of the Faculty of Psychology, University of Valencia, from 2003 until now. The Master covers how to integrate all the main learning theories and how to use them in change work. Last year my teaching has included the research and intervention in learning process through “The Art and Science of Effective Learning level I and level II”; as well as “Transitions in Learning” at the University of Alcalá in Madrid (Spain). I’m also the coordinator of the DBM Transitions Research group, a joint venture between Sensory Systems Research (UK), the University of Valencia (Spain), and the University of Alcala (Spain).
