IC01 Short Course 01 - Talk To Your Client's Eyes Not Just Their Ears! - Danie Beaulieu, PhD Do you know that 60% of all information gathering to the brain comes from the eyes? Surprisingly however, most therapies focus on ears. Have you ever felt that while you were talking to your client's they were actually recording their own inner talk rather than your words? When we speak to the eyes, we don't get that kind of distortion. This workshop will present different ways to bypass the client's resistances and to trigger their other powerful learning systems. This workshop will offer many new creative tools to address a wide range of psychological problems.

IC01 Short Course 07 - The Use of Ericksonian Hypnosis in the Treatment of Borderlines and Addictions - IIana H. Oren, PhD Borderline personality is an underlying character structure, marked by a fragmented sense of identity and maladaptive patterns of perceiving, behaving and relating to others. The Borderline is stuck in "yes, but!" or "I hate you! Don't leave me!" stance. In order to get the habitually oppositional patient to respond, the therapist needs to structure the therapeutic messages in a way that they are not easily recognized on a conscious level. Ericksonian hypnosis paves the way.

IC01 Short Course 02 - Treating the Out-of-Control Adolescent: A Grounded Theory Inquiry Into Haley's Work - Scott P. Sells, PhD Treating adolescent with severe behavioral problems challenges even the most skilled practitioner. To address this difficult population a four-year process-outcome research project led to the discovery of a 15-step integrative treatment model. The process began with an intensive case analysis of Jay Haley's work using a grounded theory approach, The concepts that emerged were then tested in the field using outcome measures on 82 families over a two-year period. In this way, the blending of qualitative and quantitative methods in a single study yielded results that offered information that neither could provide alone.

IC01 Short Course 04 - The Neurobiology of Pain Processing and Hypnosis - Jeffrey R. Feldman, PhD This short course will review the neurobiology of pain processing and hypnotic suggestion. Neuroimaging studies will be emphasized, including landmark studies by Rainville and his associates ( 1997, 1999) which identified distinct areas of the brain differentially activated depending on the nature of hypnotic suggestions. An hypnotic technique which utilizes the distinction between the sensory and affective dimensions of pain will be demonstrated. Implications for current practice and future research will be discussed.

IC01 Short Course 05 - The Red Queen and Psychotherapy's Missing Voice - Robert J. Brem, MA, MC This short course explores the notion of the Red Queen hypothesis - - as a critique of modern "hyperculture" and its impact on social structure and in turn, its impact upon "healthy" social and personal life. The presentation starts with a multidisciplinary theoretical overview and then looks at the dynamics of social induction of people into cooperating via their behaviors with a way of being that is not always healthy for them in psychological and biological terms. There will be open discussion and options for practitioners to play beyond traditional milieus of psychotherapy.

Short Description:
This presentation poses a substance abuse treatment which acknowledges and accommodates the personal needs being addressed by substance use, bypasses perceived resistance and employs idiosyncratic psycho-biological learning to achieve a body-mind gestalt complementary to the client's sobriety. Client self-empowerment and relapse prevention are built into the intervention. This method develops a safe framework for addressing any subsequent mental health themes directly or indirectly related to substance misuse. Ideomotor questioning is employed in this procedure.
