Spring 2020 Intermediate Workshop - May 1-3 - Orlando

The Spring 2020 Workshop will be a long-awaited 20 CEU's (and credit toward ASCH certification) Intermediate Workshop which will be presented by our own Louis Damis, PhD, ABPP, and Steve Warner, PhD, QEEG-D, BCN, May 1-3 at Springhill Suites at Millenia in Orlando.  This is a wonderful opportunity for experienced clinicians to refresh their skills, and for those with less experience to expand their knowledge and confidence.

Intermediate (ASCH Level 2) Workshop

What are the advantages of more training in Clinical Hypnosis? The second step in certification training is to strengthen skills, strategies and applications of clinical hypnosis. Level 1 (Basic) taught "how to" do clinical hypnosis, and part two builds upon this skill set and furthers development, adding the when, why, and where to the "how to."

Advantages:

• Introduction to a wider range of topics on the utility of clinical hypnosis (e.g., Pain Management; Anxiety and Sleep Disorders; Habit Disorders).
• Learn more techniques for the creative use of the language of suggestion to facilitate change. 
• Learn specific tools (advanced elicitation and intensification techniques) for specific populations (trauma survivors).
• More practice with the feedback of expert faculty.

The Intermediate (Level 2) Workshop increases the learner's skills and builds confidence in their use of hypnosis and prepares them 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. 

Upon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to do the following in their practice:

• Identify two hypnotic strategies for use in pain management. 
• Cite at least two examples of hypnoprojectives that might be used with clinical problems.
• Demonstrate three types of techniques and types of suggestions that might be used with common behavioral problems.
