Bateson's Research Team and the Palo Alto Group (Jackson, Haley, Weakland, Fry, and Watzlawick) developed Communication Theory. Grounded in 65 years of research, Interactional Focused Clinical Approaches, derived form Communication Theory offer a radically alternative paradigm for understanding human behavior and evoking change.

Demonstrations of how the ideodynamics of Erickson's hand levitation approach is expanded into a variety of innovative approaches to the replay and positive reconstruction of negative dream experiences.
Using a video of Kay Thompson's brilliant conversational induction with a young dentist, we will explore her masterful focus: 1) by studying her own outline of how she uses words and metaphors to lead (and follow) her subject's journey from conscious to unconscious; 2) by looking at the transcript - a map of where she is going; 3) then by watching, as she journeys with her subject through various states from nervousness and confusion to wonder and joy.
Experiential methods empower therapy. Therapist sculpting is a dramatic method used in the assessment and intervention periods of Therapy. Learn how to "map" the state of the problem and solution, and create therapy goals.
In this workshop the presenters will address the use of clinical intuition across the different sensory modalities when interacting with a client as a complex energy system. Participants will learn how to access their intuition and how to change the consciousness and energetics of the client through the use of trance. Participants also will learn how the "healer" can walk between the worlds of evidence-based medicine and the energetic realms by employing the use of trance states.
The power of expectations to influence both the onset of symptoms as well as the quality of clinical response to treatment is will established in the literature. In this workshop, we will explore how expectancy influences experiences of all types, and how hypnosis can be used to help establish positive expectancy of treatment success.
Working at the Department of Speech Pathology, University Clinic, Heidelberg Germany in the 80's, most patients with voice disorders came with expectations getting medical treatment. But resistance to psychological approaches were com-mon. Being confronted with this resistance many times cre-ated a very indirect approach of self-hypnosis training (which actually is a trance induction). Tailoring the standard approach to different patients and symptoms will be discussed, as well as how to use this in group therapy.

Symptoms are expressions of contradictory inner needs and movements and inner fights.
