Though heavily defended, personal identity is contextually reframable. This paradox is utilized for treating otherwise resistant and regressive post-traumatic and personality disorders. Patients are respectfully challenged to define who they are, what they stand for and where they’re heading. This methodology proves effective, cost efficient and safe.
A blend of sculpting and hypnotic language is an effective tool to move a client, a couple, a family, or an organization out of an impasse. You can sculpt any idea, family pattern, group process, hope, dream, obstacle or relationship by putting it outside the self and observing it, which re-organizes and metabolizes it on new levels.
Eye Movement Integration Therapy (EMI) is one of the most innovative and effective treatments for difficulties stemming from highly distress- ing memories. This workshop will present the basic principles of EMI, as it was developed by Connirae and Steve Andreas in 1989, and include the refinements Danie Beaulieu has added during the last ten years of practicing, teaching, researching and writing about this technique.
According to Helmholtz, reality consists of two abstractions. One is an independent or "objective" world that needs to be adjusted by a related or "subjective" world. However, a culturally determined atmosphere of detrimental double bind communication prevents experiencing both abstractions simultaneously, i.e. yielding chronic complaints. This workshop shows how easily one-sided behavior can be adjusted through utilizing a given individual's ambivalence via eliciting hypnotic phenomenology.
This workshop explores how the Native American belief system contains ingredients to keep the mind and body in harmony and promote well-being. We will explore adding time-frames, respect and gratitude; the circle of life, and symbols as reminders of the "right" path.
In this workshop, we will focus on the importance of self-esteem as an explanation for the problematic behavior of children and teenagers and discuss recent neurological research. We will show cases to apply some Ericksonian solutions in children who share negative self- esteem for their problematic behavior.
Ericksonian psychotherapy emphasizes the utilization of our resources. When I treat children with enuresis, I focus on resources and keep in mind that Ericksonian interventions should be brief because children may get tired of being in therapy for too long. Techniques tailored to a child and examples of inductions such as eye fixation utilizing toys will be presented. I will emphasize how to make several brief interventions quickly while utilizing "non human co-therapists" during home assignments, and the combination of conversational trance with tasks.
Attendees will be introduced to Ericksonian interventions and Thought Field Therapy interventions. They have been successfully utilized by the presenter to treat the symptoms of trauma in clinical settings, in the field (Rwanda and other African countries) and in large group settings (Charity Hospital and other new Orleans institutions.)
