The Power of Working with Parts & the Unconscious Mind: Introduction to Ego State Therapy & Clinical Hypnosis
This is an opportunity to learn about the multiplicity of the self, the unconscious mind and how a parts approach can enhance your clinical practice regardless of your specialties. More and more clinicians are recognizing the value of Ego State Therapy which is often the preferred parts approach for complex trauma and dissociative disorders and not surprisingly included in the upcoming revisions for the International Treatment Guidelines for Dissociative Identity Disorder. As clinicians recognize the power of the unconscious mind, clinical hypnosis is also becoming an increasingly popular and very beneficial tool to add to your clinical toolbox, especially with trauma, substance use/abuse, and pain management.
"I still believe after 30+ years of clincial practice, clinical hypnosis and practicing the art of being hypnotic with an Ego State Therapy theoretical approach is the best and kindest way to do any kind of therapy. It is the greatest gift I have been able to give my clients and now consultees because it connects them with the gifts they already have..."
