Description:
In addition to clinical hypnosis, Erickson's work also is characterized by a number of other innovative techniques, which should be in every competent clinician's "toolbox." This introductory level workshop discusses techniques such as anecdotes, implication, paradoxical intervention, task assignments and metaphor. The participant will have the opportunity to learn about these techniques, then practice the skills in small group exercises.
