SUMMARY:L2 - Intermediate - Training in Clinical Hypnosis - Skills and Applications (ISSTD)
DESCRIPTION:Organization: ISSTD \nWebsite: https://www.isst-d.org/training-and-conferences/training-courses/asch-training/ \nEvent Title: L2 – Intermediate – Training in Clinical Hypnosis – Skills and Applications \nAgenda: https://asch.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/L2_2025_Schedule.docx \nDates: 09/12/2025\, 09/13/2025;09/14/2025 \nLocation: In-person workshop \nCE: 20 \nContact: dr.reinhild.muenke@gmail.com \nAbstract:\nThis 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.

SUMMARY:Interactive Experiential Clinical Hypnosis for Developmental Trauma Disorders (NTSCH)
DESCRIPTION:Organization: North Texas Society of Clinical Hypnosis (NTSCH) \nWebsite: https://www.northtexashypnosis.org/   \nEvent Title: Interactive Experiential Clinical Hypnosis for Developmental Trauma Disorders  \nAgenda: NTSCH_Agenda with Objectives \nDates: 09/19/2025 – 09/20/2025 \nLocation: In person and Virtually (Live Streamed)  \nCE: 16  \nContact: Dr. Louis Damis\, DrDamis@LouisDamisPhD.com  \nAbstract: Many clients treated for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder have Complex Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD). CPTSD is associated with histories of prolonged trauma\, abuse\, and neglect and is considered a form of developmental trauma. Such Complex Traumatic Stress Disorders include disturbances of self-organization that overlap with attachment deficits and pathologies requiring specialized interventions to modify. Prolonged neglect and abuse are associated with attachment anomalies\, strong egosyntonic negative beliefs\, and dissociation that are not readily changed with CBT or cognitive hypnotic interventions. These underlying aspects of developmental trauma involve the implicit memory system and early learning that psychoanalysts call the unrepressed unconscious.  This workshop will delineate the role of implicit memory in trauma-related disorders and address strategies for modifying implicit memories not accessible through cognitive methods (Normative Implicit Clinical Hypnosis). Hypnotic and biobehavioral techniques for polyvagal-based interventions\, attachment repair\, and memory reconsolidation update will be integrated into a phase-oriented treatment model.  Participants will learn how to establish the neurophysiological substrate for neuroception of safety and equip patients with the prerequisite skills necessary for mastery of traumatic and wounding experiences.  Application of exploratory techniques combined with memory reconsolidation update strategies to modify negative egosyntonic beliefs and transform traumatic memories will be delineated. Once adequate stabilization is attained and sufficient memory integration is established\, treatment can focus on self-development. The workshop will provide sufficient information for participants new to the advanced hypnosis workshops and more senior practitioners looking for specialized training in trauma\, complex trauma\, and attachment disorder applications.      \nLearning Objectives: See attached agenda

SUMMARY:Hypnosis and "Subtle" Presentations of Adult Autism
DESCRIPTION:Organization:  \nCTSCH \nWebsite:  \nhttps://www.ctsch.com/ \nEvent Title:  \nHypnosis and “Subtle” Presentations of Adult Autism \nAgenda: \n1:00pm to 1:40pm: Representational Systems\, Neurodiversity\, About Autism \n1:40pm to 2:00pm: Core Characteristics of Autism for Psychotherapy \n2:00pm to 3:20pm: Autism Treatment (Understanding the Brain & Sensory/Emotion Regulation) \n3:20pm to 4:00pm: Autism Treatment (Relationships & Communication)\, Hypnosis Application \nDates:  \n09/19/2025 \nLocation: \nWebinar \nCE: \n3 \nContact: \nCTSCH@CTSCH.com \nAbstract: \nAutistic clients commonly experience challenges in hypnosis and psychotherapy when practitioners do not understand their needs and processing style. Unfortunately\, current research and knowledge on Autism—and the diverse ways it manifests—has not trickled down to all helping professionals.Many clinicians may be relying on outdated information on Autism and feel ill-equipped to recognize and adapt therapy for Autistic clients—particularly those with “subtle” presentations.This neuro-affirming training is designed to bridge this gap by providing updated information about less-obvious Autism as well as practical tools and insights to help therapists support the emotional\, relational and processing needs of Autistic individuals. \nLearning Objectives: \n1. Identify at least 4 features of Autism. \n2. Describe at least 3 core characteristics of Autism that are most relevant for psychotherapy. \n3. List at least 4 interventions to support processing and emotional differences in Autistic clients. \n4. Discuss at 2 interventions for challenges that arise from relationship and communication differences. \nReferences/Bibliography: \n1. Henderson\, D.\, Wayland\, S.\, White\, J. (2023).

SUMMARY:Planning Treatment Using Clinical Hypnosis: Practical Applications for Common and Not so Common Conditions (Greater Philadelphia Society of Clinical Hypnosis)
DESCRIPTION:Organization: Greater Philadelphia Society of Clinical Hypnosis  \nWebsite: https://gpsch.org/  \nEvent Title:  Planning Treatment Using Clinical Hypnosis: Practical Applications for Common and Not so Common Conditions\, Advanced Workshop \nAgenda:  Reid_Timed_Agenda \nDates: September 21\, 2025  \nLocation: Virtual \nCE: 3 \nContact: Marcy Nadel\, marcy1116@aol.com  \nAbstract: Clinical hypnosis\, whether facilitated by another or self-directed (i.e.\, self-hypnosis)\, has been shown to be an effective (and evidence-based) means of enhancing pain management (Thompson et al\, 2019; Milling et al.\, 2020)\, panic and anxiety (Valentine et al.\, 2019; Reid\, 2023) phagophobia (Reid\, 2016) smoking cessation (Green & Lynn\, 2018)\, and depression (Milling et al.\, 2019). As clinicians we can evoke therapeutic\, conscious and unconscious resources for our clients in many ways\, though in this workshop we will explore the practical and intentional application of clinical hypnosis for evoking client resources. \nThis webinar involves skill building and enhancement of clinical hypnosis knowledge and will provide attendees with opportunities to discuss and formulate hypnosis treatment plans\, as well as implement hypnotic interventions (e.g.\, age regression\, age progression\, alert trance\, posthypnotic suggestions) for the treatment of common (e.g.\, depression\, anxiety\, habit control) and not so common (e.g.\, phagophobia\, trichotillomania\, trypanophobia\, hemophobia) troubling and sometimes debilitating human conditions. Attendees will be encouraged to submit and discuss their own sanitized cases pending review and approval of Dr. Reid (see below for instructions). The ethical implications of treatment planning and issues involving informed consent for treatment when using hypnosis will be also addressed. Furthermore\, this webinar\, through the use of practical demonstrations\, will minimize the apparent gap that exists for many clinicians who lack knowledge\, understanding\, and strategic application of clinical hypnosis interventions.  \nLearning Objectives:   \nAt the end of the program\, participants will be able to:  \n\nDevelop a treatment plan including hypnosis interventions for patients presenting with numerous personal challenges. Participants will complete a hypnosis treatment plan for at least three case studies that will be provided by the instructor (Reid\, D.B.\, 2016) \n\n\nConstruct three metaphors appropriate for treatment of anxiety\, depression\, and panic disorder (one metaphor for each condition) (Casula\, C.C.\, 2022; Casula\, C.C.\, 2025; Reid\, D.B.\, 2023) \n\n\nConstruct three posthypnotic suggestions for two case studies provided by the instructor or an attendee (Willmarth\, E.K. & Vinson\, M.\, 2022; Wark\, D.M.\, 2023) d.  Describe alert hypnosis including the “Helping Hands” intervention for treatment of unhealthy and unwanted habits (Reid\, D.B.\, 2025; Feldman\, J.B.\, 2020)
