Description

Description:

Demo 1 - Using Hypnosis with Families - Camillo Loriedo, M.D.
Specific direct and indirect techniques are required to activate family resources and to induce a deep and meaningful change of the most rigid family patterns. A family hypnotic session reveals the powerful and subtle resistances a family may develop in the course of the hypnotic treatment as well as of the many different solutions a therapist may adopt to overcome these resistances. Special focus will be on how to properly combine direct and indirect in the different phases of the therapeutic process.

Demo 2 - Conversational Approaches to PTSD - Maggie Phillips, Ph.D.
This demonstration will focus on the uses of indirect hypnosis with symptoms and difficulties related to post-traumatic stress disorder. Benefits of indirect vs. direct techniques will be discussed and presented, including their relative value for symptom management, self-regulation and self-soothing and the expansion of integrative functioning.

Demo 3 - The Transformation of Psychosomatic Symptoms in Helping "Body Guards" for Optimal Individuation in Relationships - Gunther Schmidt, M.D.
It will be shown how we can understand and utilize psychosomatic symptoms as wise information from our intuitive unconscious about important needs which represent awareness about complex goal conflicts and about fulfilling solutions in relationships.

Educational Objectives:

  1. To describe how to combine direct and indirect approaches in an hypnotic intervention with families.
  2. To describe one conversational method for promoting self- regulation and self-soothing in PTSD patients.
  3. To describe the utilization of symptoms and strategies of systemic recontextualization.
