This four-day course will provide a foundation for understanding hypnotic trance phenomena and the utilization of hypnotic trance in clinical practice. Topic areas in health care to be covered will include anxiety management and acute and procedural pain. This is an intensive Workshop which is designed to equip clinicians to immediately begin using hypnosis after completion of the full curriculum. Participants should be prepared to personally experience hypnotic trance phenomena, and to extensively practice trance inductions in supervised small groups.Participants will learn: 1. a conceptual foundation for understanding hypnotic trance phenomena.2. to assess patients for suitability for hypnotherapy 3. to utilize hypnotic trance phenomena for symptom resolution.
Learning hypnosis requires mastery of both theoretical material and practical skills. Learning formats will include fourteen hours of lectures and demonstrations, and fourteen hours practicing hypnotic skills in small groups (closely supervised by senior faculty). Participants will be expected to practice their emerging skills in the intervening three weeks between weekend sessions. In the second weekend, November 12-13, there will be an opportunity for participants to discuss and learn from their experiences during the preceding three weeks. Additional lectures/demonstrations and skill practice in small groups will be offered. Attendance is expected at both weekend sessions and will offer 28 hours of CE/CME credit.
