ASCH approved workshops are taught by faculty with a wide range of health care experience in various disciplines who will demonstrate and teach workshop participants the concepts\, principles\, and processes of hypnosis. The workshop is comprised of a mix of didactic presentations\, demonstrations\, experiential exercises\, and faculty led small group practice tailored to the specific needs\, interests\, and learning styles of workshop participants. At the successful completion of the workshop\, participants will have been taught the knowledge and skills necessary to capably use clinical hypnosis and to begin to employ this strategy in their clinical practices.    \nThis unique and practical Level one workshop is broken up into two day segments\, with a three week break between Part A and B. This new format is based on feedback given from former participants\, with a focus on helping participants to integrate clinical hypnosis in their practice in a manageable way. There will be time to practice skills within small groups\, and with clients.  \nOur small groups will be longer than the standard time to allow extra time for questions\, demo and practice. A follow up optional consultation group will be offered once the workshop is complete to further help participants integrate clinical hypnosis into their practice.

SUMMARY:Hypnosis for the Treatment of Developmental Trauma Disorders (BCSCH)
DESCRIPTION:Organization: Clinical Hypnosis Society\, BC Division  \nWebsite: https://www.hypnosis.bc.ca/  \nEvent Title: Hypnosis for the Treatment of Developmental Trauma Disorders  \nAgenda:  BCSCH_Agenda_Trauma_Nov_2026_revised \nDates: 11/21/2026 -11/22/2026  \nLocation: Virtual  \nCE: 16  \nContact :  Louis Damis\, DrDamis@LouisDamisPhD.com  \nDescription: 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/deprivation 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.  \nProlonged 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.   \nThis 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 and solidifying the sense of self.  \nA comprehensive hypnotic approach\, including relevant non-hypnotic components\, will be outlined and taught through didactic presentation and demonstration.  \nParticipants will be able to delineate and apply the following: \n\n The three components of the phase-oriented trauma treatment approach and specific hypnotic strategies for each.\n\n\n Normative Implicit Clinical Hypnosis.\n\n\n The Polyvagal Theory\, its relevance to establishing a neurophysiological substrate for trauma processing and attachment repair\, and three strategies for generating neuroception of safety\n\n\n Explain the importance of prioritizing neglect repair.\n\n\n Three hypnotic implicit memory modification strategies.\n\n\n Three strategies for accessing remote experiences associated with ego-syntonic negative beliefs and symptoms.\n\n\n Three strategies for memory reconsolidation updating specific traumatic memories.\n\nSpeaker info: Louis F.
