- Many depressed clients know what they “should” do but still cannot sleep. This session looks at sleep as a therapeutic entry point rather than a symptom to manage, using Ericksonian approaches that work indirectly and with less effort. Demonstrations and case material illustrate how humor, imagery, and trance can restore rest and soften depressive inertia.

- Excessive anxiety in childhood is a significant predictor of eventual comorbid depression and other conditions. This presentation will identify the cognitive processes and coping strategies that help create a cycle of anxiety, psychosocial isolation, and depression in anxious children and families. Attention will be given to the development of specific, empirically supported Ericksonian strategies which can help shift the anxious individual and family toward malleability, creativity and adaptability.

- Short Description:
- In the literature, music and drama, artists often covertly foreshadow impending events. In social psychology there are myriad studies of priming, an effect by which the accessibility of a future target is increased by the presentation of an earlier cue. Priming effects illuminate important facets of interpersonal responsiveness. Milton Erickson was the first therapist to seed future ideas in the course of strategic therapy and hypnosis. Seeding is an important concept that can increase the effectiveness of interventions regardless of the technique that will be used. We will learn to harness seeding methods through lecture, demonstration and practice.

- Milton H. Erickson, MD, understood that “the conscious (thinking) mind doesn’t do much of anything of much significance…while the unconscious mind is an infinite storehouse of dreams, potentials, and solutions…” This workshop will teach a brief, solution focused, strategic, and hypnotic approach to anxiety related disorders. Intellectualizing, analyzing, self-criticizing, WHY-ing and WHAT-IF-ing clients will be targeted as participants learn to employ Ericksonian interventions including solution-focused questions, strategic task assignments, and formal/conversational hypnosis via live demonstration, experiential exercise, and case studies.

- How can therapists help their clients ease physical and emotional pain at night so sleep becomes restorative rather than another source of struggle? Using Ericksonian hypnosis, metaphor, and careful attention to pain language, this course shows how to soften arousal, shift the experience of discomfort, and support the nervous system’s natural settling. Through live demonstration and a structured sleep protocol, the work offers practical ways to “tuck the day’s pain away” with compassion, imagination, and clinical precision.

Participants learn how cinematic scenes naturally engage attention, imagination, and identification, creating trance-like states that can support reframing, resource activation, and self-hypnosis. Through theory, clinical examples, and film excerpts, the session shows how movies can function as modern metaphors that help clients access strengths, shift stuck narratives, and move forward in a way that feels intuitive and engaging.

- All of Milton Erickson’s cases are based in utilization. It is an “alchemical formula” of turning lead into gold. Utilization is not a technique; it is an orientation that the therapist assumes. Utilization is an orientation of sufficiency that is the opposite of psychological problems, which can be viewed as believed in insufficiencies.
