SUMMARY:Hypnosis and Zen-Buddhism for Pain and Suffering
DESCRIPTION:Register here!\nAdvanced Workshop: Hypnosis and Zen-Buddhism for Pain and Suffering with Dr. Dave Patterson. \nInformation\nHeld virtually\, 22 hours of CE \n\nThursday\, Nov 6th – 5:00PM EST (2:00 PM PST) to 9:00PM EST  (6:00PM PST) \nFriday\, Nov 7th – 5:00PM EST (2:00PM) PST to 9:00PM EST (6:00PM PST)\nSaturday\, Nov 8th  – 10:00AM EST (7:00AM PST) to 6:00PM EST (2:00 PM PST)\, with 1 hour break between 1-2pm EST (10-11AM PST) \nSunday\, Nov 9th – 10:00AM EST (7:00AM PST) to 6:00PM EST (2:00 PM PST) with 1 hour break between 1-2pm EST (10-11AM PST)\n\nThis four-day workshop will focus on the use of hypnosis\, meditation\, and motivational interview to treat acute pain and manage chronic suffering. The workshop will train participants in an eight-module psychotherapy approach for managing chronic pain and illness that is described in Patterson and Mendoza’s Clinical Pain for Hypnosis (2024). Participants will go through several cycles of learning the science and theory behind a hypnotic approach\, observing the trainer perform an induction and then practicing the skills on a partner. The practice sessions will focus on learning a module of a complex induction well\, and then combining several modules in a way that participants can offer advanced\, non-linear inductions to their patients. This offers an effective way to learn complex concepts that is low stress and fun. The modern science of the unconscious will be emphasized as well as Ericksonian approaches. We will also use a neurophysiological conceptualization of a non-dualistic self to facilitate both meditation and hypnosis. The practice exercises with participants will be designed so they will be better able to manage pain and suffering in patients but also will find examples that are useful in their own lives.  \nLearning Objectives\nAt the end of the workshop participants will be able to:  \n\nDescribe the difference between acute and chronic pain \nArticulate hypnotic approaches to acute and chronic pain \nDescribe the components of a biopsychosocial assessment approach to chronic pain and illness \nPerform six approaches to hypnosis that were used by Erickson later in his career \nDescribe at least four concepts from the modern science of unconscious that apply to hypnosis \nArticulate a scientific based conceptualization of the illusion of self that leads to meditation training. \n\n\nSpeaker information\nDavid Patterson\, Ph.D.\, is professor emeritus of psychology in the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine at the University of Washington School of Medicine.

SUMMARY:ASCH Level 1 & Level 2 Workshop 
DESCRIPTION:ASCH Level 1 & Level 2 Workshop  \nThursday\, November 13th – Sunday\, November 16th     \nOur Clinical Hypnosis training program offers a progressive series of workshops designed to equip licensed health professionals with skills to incorporate clinical hypnosis into their practices. In the Level 1 workshop\, participants learn the foundational principles and techniques of hypnosis\, including inductions\, suggestions\, and therapeutic strategies\, guided by experienced faculty from various health disciplines. This course blends presentations\, demonstrations\, and hands-on practice to provide basic skills for immediate application. Building on this foundation\, the Level 2 workshop delves deeper into clinical hypnosis\, expanding on “how to” by adding the “when\, why\, and where” for techniques\, especially for specific populations and complex cases like pain and anxiety management. Advanced skills such as complex inductions and the nuanced use of suggestion language are explored with expert feedback. For those seeking continued growth\, Advanced Workshops offered throughout the year cover specialized topics\, including behavioral medicine and mind-body integration\, enabling participants to further enhance and apply their skills in targeted areas. Each level builds confidence\, competence\, and the ability to provide patient-centered\, integrative care  \nImportant Notes  \n\nRegister for only ONE Workshop – Participants are expected to attend all days. \n\n\nDetailed workshop schedules\, faculty and other materials will be available to participants\, online\, two weeks before the start date.  Workshop materials will be available in electronic form only. \n\n\nYou must complete Level 1 prior to taking Level 2. \n\n\nApproximately one week before the workshop\, registered participants will receive a link to a private webpage that will include links to handouts and resource materials.  This access will be good for seven days after the workshop has been completed.  Note: workshop handouts can be approximately 200+ pages for Level 1; 150+ pages for Level 2; and 100+ pages for Advanced.  \n\nClinical Workshop Level 1  \nThe Level 1 workshop\, the first part of a series of workshops in the certification program for clinical hypnosis\, is intended for licensed health professionals including physicians\, nurses\, psychologists\, dentists\, counselors\, social workers\, and those in related fields. A diverse faculty from a range of health disciplines will teach the principles and process of hypnotic inductions\, suggestions\, and treatment. The workshop is a mix of didactic presentations\, demonstrations\, experiential exercises\, and faculty-led small group practice tailored to the specific needs and learning styles of each participant. At the conclusion of the workshop participants will have been taught the basic skills required to utilize clinical hypnosis and begin to apply it to their practice.  \nAdvantages:  \n\nRapidly establish rapport and the hypnotic relationship across developmental ages. \n\n\nFacilitate change\, ego-strengthen\, and reduce impediments to change. \n\n\nCost-effective\, collaborative\, person-centered treatment. \n\n\nEmpower clients and patients to build skills for better health. \n\n\nLearn a highly creative\, broad-ranging technique for use in integrative medicine. \n\nLevel 1 Schedule  \n(All times listed are in EST. Times are subject to minor changes)  \n\n\n\nThursday\, November 13\, 2025 \n6:00 PM-9:30 PM \n\n\nFriday\, November 14\, 2025 \n8:15 AM-6:00 PM \n\n\nSaturday\, November 15\, 2025 \n8:15 AM-6:00 PM \n\n\nSunday\, November 16\, 2025 \n8:15 AM-12:00 PM \n\n\n\nAn agenda with faculty assignments will be sent to registrants approximately 1-2 weeks prior to the live course date. \nLEVEL 1 IS FULL. We expect to have another Level 1 in February.\n  \nClinical Workshop Level 2  \nThe second step in certification training is to strengthen skills\, strategies\, and applications of clinical hypnosis. Part one taught “how to” do clinical hypnosis\, and part two builds on this skill set and refines and furthers development to add the when\, why\, and where to the “how-to”.  \nAdvantages:  \n\nIntroduction to a wider range of topics on the utility of clinical hypnosis (e.g.\, Pain Management; Anxiety and Sleep Disorders; Habit Disorders). \n\n\nLearn more techniques for the creative use of the language of suggestion to facilitate change. \n\n\nLearn specific tools (complex inductions and intensification techniques) for specific populations (children). \n\n\nMore practice with the feedback of expert faculty. \n\nThe Level 2 workshop increases skills and builds confidence in the use of hypnosis. It prepares the workshop participant to move on to the Advanced Workshop level and Individual Consultation with a strong basis of skills and understanding of the principles and practice of clinical hypnosis.  \nLevel 2 Schedule  \n(All times listed are in EST. Times are subject to minor changes)  \n\n\n\nThursday\, November 13\, 2025 \n6:00 PM-9:30 PM \n\n\nFriday\, November 14\, 2025 \n8:15 AM-6:00 PM \n\n\nSaturday\, November 15\, 2025 \n8:15 AM-6:00 PM \n\n\nSunday\, November 16\, 2025 \n8:15 AM-12:00 PM \n\n\n\nAn agenda with faculty assignments will be sent to registrants approximately 1-2 weeks prior to the live course date. \nRegister for Level 2 – Click here\n  \nDetails and Fees  \n\n\n\nCourse \nMember \nNon-Member \nResident/Intern/Fellow \nGraduate Student \n\n\nLevel 1 \n$500 \n$675 \n$400 \n$320 \n\n\nLevel 2 \n$500 \n$675 \n$400 \n$320 \n\n\n\n  \nRegistration Instructions  \nOnline registration will take you to the ASCH site and require a new account set-up (non-members) or Member login.  If you are an ASCH member enter the email address associated with your ASCH Membership as our UserID; click Forgot Password to set a new password.  \nPayments can now be made in a secure online environment.  The system DOES NOT save credit card information once the transaction has been completed and registration submitted.  \nContinuing Education Hours  \nOnline attendance\, full engagement and completion of a pre-test\, post-test and daily program evaluations are required for a certificate of completion.
