Clinical Hypnosis
Our understanding of clinical hypnosis has changed and become more integrated with developments in neurophysiology.
Hypnosis can be understood as an expression of various “hypnotic” phenomena that can present in the hypnotic state and then define the experience as hypnosis. The hypnotic phenomena also present in everyday life and in problems. Hypnosis can be viewed as a natural everyday phenomenon.
This workshop will provide a modern understanding to the theory and the underlying principles of clinical hypnosis, hypnotic inductions, interventions and it’s applications.
During this workshop participants will develop a better understanding of what hypnosis is and already learn to apply techniques to start introducing hypnosis informally into their practice. This can be utilised to enhance other therapeutic interventions, such as CBT.
No prior knowledge of/or experience in hypnotherapy is required. Even though this workshop will introduce new participants to these approaches and techniques, it is also directed at more experienced practitioners.

Ego State Therapy
Ego state therapy presents an understanding of the self as being organised in “parts” that develop as different neurophysiological systems or states. States can develop through normal development, trauma or introjects of people, experiences, attitudes or values. These states can also develop around certain needs and functions and be energised in different life contexts.
Ego State Therapy has changed and become more integrated with modern developments in neurophysiology, somatic approaches in psychotherapy and the polyvagal theory of Dr Stephen Porges.
