Healing Pain and Trauma with Hypnosis

$129.99 Standard

Trauma doesn’t just leave behind emotional pain—it can also manifest in physical pain that drives addictions, stalls progress in therapy, and fuels feelings of hopelessness within both the client and clinician. Clinical hypnosis can be a highly effective tool for relieving pain in trauma survivors. Learn a trauma-informed approach to hypnosis that allows you to safely evoke hypnotic states; relieve pain with evidence-based protocols; and elicit a greater sense of hope, well-being, and empowerment in survivors. In this recorded session, demonstrations and experiential activities will show you how to:

  • Incorporate clinical hypnosis into Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
  • Guide clients into hypnotic states, effectively frame suggestions, and activate innate healing responses
  • Utilize both direct and indirect suggestions for relieving anxiety and pain
  • Resolve subconscious beliefs that may be maintaining pain states
  • Demonstrate self-hypnosis techniques clients can use to evoke self-compassion, motivate themselves, and stop self-defeating behaviors
