The difference between it and convention psychotherapy, though, is that with hypnotherapy, believability has nothing to do with treatment outcome. When in a good state of hypnosis, the client is not required to believe a word you say for the suggestions to become integrated into his / her manner of thinking! Secondly, some thoughts are learned through accidental hypnosis. When this is the case, hypnotherapy is very useful in helping the client unlearn the problematic thoughts. What you will learn... Day One What is Hypnosis? Learn what hypnosis is and why common definitions are problematic and misleading. A Hypnosis Demonstration. Your instructor will demonstrate inductions, deepening techniques, and hypnotherapeutic techniques with a live demonstration. Each step will be demonstrated and explained. Why and How Hypnosis Works. Learn what happens during hypnosis that encourages change in cognition, emotion, and behavior. Induction / Deepening Techniques Learn how to start the hypnosis properly to encourage results. Learn a variety of instant inductions and deepening techniques. Attendees will engage in practice sessions and will be provided feedback from the instructor. Day Two Testing for Depth. How do you know when the patient is ready for therapeutic suggestions? This seminar will show you how to test for depth. Age Regression. Learn how to take a person back to any point in his / her life, whether yesterday, last year, or early childhood and have total recall for any event. Learn why you need not, and will not, uncover traumatic events. Remove the cause of the problems without the patient experiencing trauma. Therapy. Learn how to apply hypnotherapy to a wide variety of problems, including obesity and smoking. Case examples will be presented. Attendees will have the opportunity to present their case examples.

Conversational Hypnosis and NLP. Learn how to provide indirect suggestions that will set the stage for success. This is especially helpful for resistant clients. The Use of Metaphors.
