This course builds on foundational knowledge from Level 1 and emphasizes the development of practical skills\, clinical decision-making\, and ethical application of hypnosis.  \n  Participants will review current perspectives on the neurophysiology of hypnosis and refine core hypnotic competencies\, including advanced elicitation and intensification strategies\, therapeutic hypnotic language\, utilization\, and the use of suggestion. Instruction includes demonstrations and discussion of hypnotic techniques such as ideomotor signaling\, metaphor development\, and exploratory approaches.  \n Clinical applications of hypnosis are presented across several common treatment concerns\, including anxiety\, sleep problems\, depression\, pain management\, and habit disorders. The course also addresses ethical and professional issues relevant to hypnosis practice\, including considerations related to memory\, informed consent\, and scope of practice.  \nExperiential learning allows participants to engage in structured mentored small-group practice with faculty guidance to strengthen their ability to use hypnosis\, apply therapeutic techniques taught\, and integrate hypnosis into treatment. This training is intended to deepen clinical confidence and expand the ethical use of hypnosis.  \nLearning Objectives: *see agenda*  \nSpeaker info: Debbie Bensching\, LCSW\, LICSW\, MSWAC Bio \nDave Boyer LMFT Bio \nLinda Nishi-Strattner PHD Bio

Attendees of this experiential workshop will learn the core principles of mindfulness\, the similarities and differences between meditation and hypnosis\, understand the existing research supporting the effects of Mindful Hypnotherapy\, and have an opportunity to experience a group Mindful Hypnosis meditation. Brief clinical vignettes and clinical anecdotes will be incorporated to ignite imagination and discussion. Practical strategies for integrating mindfulness-based inductions and suggestions into hypnosis and establishing a mindful self-hypnosis practice will be presented.  \nLearning Objectives:  \n1) Describe two foundational principles for integrating mindfulness into hypnotherapy.  \nOlendzki\, N.\, Elkins\, G. R.\, Slonena\, E.\, Hung\, J.\, & Rhodes\, J. R. (2020) \n  2) Identify three ways that mindfulness and hypnotherapy traditionally diverge\, and three ways they can converge.   \n Slonena\, E. E.\, & Elkins\, G. R. (2021)  \n  3) Define the eight sessions of Mindful Hypnotherapy as a manualized intervention\, as well as the underlying principles that enable adaptation.    \nPadilla\, V.

SUMMARY:Utilizing Hypnosis in the Treatment of Narcissistic Wounds in Psychotherapy: A Relational Approach (GPSCH)
DESCRIPTION:Organization: Greater Philadelphia Society of Clinical Hypnosis  \nWebsite: https://gpsch.org/  \nEvent Title: Utilizing Hypnosis in the Treatment of Narcissistic Wounds in Psychotherapy: A Relational Approach  \nAgenda:  Eric_Spiegel_Timed_Agenda \nDates: April 19\, 2026  \nLocation: Webinar- Virtual  \nCE: 3  \nContact : Marcy Nadel\, marcy1116@aol.com  \nDescription: The dimension of narcissism influences a wide-range of character presentations and treatment issues occurring in psychotherapy in our modern age. Although clinical and public attention is often focused on the categorically-derived DSM-V diagnosis of Narcissistic Personality Disorder\, narcissistic wounds stemming from attachment failures are a more frequent occurrence in the development of the self. These arrests in the full formation of the self and their subsequent re-appearance in later relationship interactions are often referenced in a wide range of treatments.  \nIn this workshop\, we will consider how Kohut’s self psychology and current innovations in attachment theory can help us understand narcissistic wounds and treatment issues across the dimension of narcissism. Further\, we will focus on the role that hypnosis can play in a relationally attuned therapeutic relationship towards facilitating attachment repair in patients with developmental arrests associated with narcissistic wounds (e.g. false-self identity formation\, affect dysregulation\, boundary difficulties\, etc.). Through a mixture of didactic and experiential training\, participants will develop increased competency in (1) understanding how the therapeutic relationship in general\, and clinical hypnosis from an attachment frame in particular\, can be utilized to re-build developmental structure and re-engage reflective functioning in this population of patients\, and (2) utilizing specific applications of clinical hypnosis towards this aim.  \nAt the end of this learning experience\, participants will be able to: \n1. Identify the diagnostic features of narcissistic wounds. [Choi-Kahn\, L.W.\, Simonsen\, S.\, Euler\, S. (2022)\, and Wall\, T.W. (2018)]\n2. Explain how to implement a relational approach featuring hypnosis towards treating narcissistic wounds. [Choi-Kahn\, L.W.\, Simonsen\, S.\, Euler\, S. (2022); Spiegel\, E.B. (2016); and Weinberg\, I. (2023)] \n3. Utilize 3 hypnotic interventions to regulate affect during “triggers” of narcissistic wounds. [Baker\, E.L.\, & Spiegel\, E.B. (2020); Spiegel\, E.B. (2016); and Wall\, T.W. (2018)] \n4. Develop 3 hypnotic scenes that fit narcissistic identity presentation (e.g. false self) and facilitate developmental repair. [Baker\, E.L.\, & Spiegel\, E.B. (2020); Spiegel\, E.B. (2016); and Wall\, T.W. (2018)]  \nSpeaker info: Eric Spiegel\, Ph.D. _5_-_CV__Spiegel__short_ \n
