Remembering a Guiding Light: Gillian Hunt
It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we acknowledge the passing of our beloved colleague, IDT teacher, and friend, Gillian Hunt. Based in Palmerston North, New Zealand, Gillian was a highly respected Senior Teacher, counsellor, therapist, and supervisor whose incredible journey with IDT began in the mid-1990s. We extend our deepest condolences to her family, friends, colleagues, and all the clients she helped guide over the decades. Gillian, thank you for your commitment, your passion, and your light. May you rest in peace.

What is IDT? 

A unique way of working with words, images and feelings to enable clients to gain a better understanding. The page becomes a mirror for your client, helping them see themselves more objectively from new perspectives, and facilitating insight, inner resourcefulness and profound change.

​Course information

IDT has been proven to be applicable across a wide range of helping professionals, and is particularly useful with clients who may not be verbally or conceptually fluent.
