Abstract:
This L2 (Intermediate) training in clinical hypnosis focuses on skills and applications to strengthen confidence in “being hypnotic”, beyond the mechanics and into the process of facilitating change. An experienced faculty will offer thorough didactic, experiential, and practical supervised learning. Three supervised small group practices with no more than six participants will provide ample opportunity to refresh and expand formal hypnotic elicitation, intensification, utilization, and realerting/reorienting skills. Participants will have the opportunity to increase their understanding of the clinical decision making processes inherent to offering competent, effective, and constructive hypnosis in a variety of clinical situations, including the treatment of traumatized and dissociated persons. This training will address insight-oriented and exploratory hypnotic techniques; specific hypnotic approaches to working with trauma and dissociation; the management of physical discomfort and pain; strategies for affect regulation; working hypnotically with children and child parts of the mind. Participants will be introduced to ideomotor signalling, ideomotor inquiry and other exploratory hypnotic techniques, and will have the opportunity to refine their hypnotic language abilities. This training is open to a maximum of 30 participants. Registrants will be licensed clinicians or students of a health care discipline attending an accredited institution, and will have completed an ASCH approved 20 hours of L1/BASIC/FUNDAMENTAL training in clinical hypnosis.
