ASCH CME Mission Statement:  

The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH) is a community of licensed healthcare professionals that advances the ethical use of hypnosis by promoting research, education, certification, and evidence-based clinical excellence.  

ASCH strategic objectives are to ensure clinicians have a clear understanding of the relationship between clinical hypnosis, health and healing, along with the importance of the clinician/client relationship, as well as to develop methods and tools that properly measure proficiency (comprehension, application, process) as required by ACCME for CME.  

As an interdisciplinary organization, ASCH provides an opportunity to learn from and interact with colleagues in other health and mental health care disciplines. This allows for an integration of ideas and applications that address current trends and provide an up to date approach to education.
