Healing in The Space Between The Words

Emerganace

Heal in the Space Between the Words; Exploring the intersection of Hypnosis, Brainspotting, Ego State Therapy, Neurobiology, and Quantum Physics        

12 CEs

Dates: Dec 8-9, 2022 or March 9-10, 2023

Day 1: 9-6 ET, Day 2 9-1 ET

On Zoom.US

Ericksonian Hypnosis, NLP and Social Psychology teach us the importance of meta-communication and the power of tone, tempo, and numerous other para-verbal elements.  This seminar will focus on a particular element of meta-communication; silence. Silence as it occurs within the context of speech and within context of our sessions.  In attending this seminar, participants will experience new ways of thinking about, eliciting and utilizing silence drawing from elements of Ericksonian Hypnosis, Brainspotting™, mindfulness, quantum physics, interpersonal neurobiology, and somatically oriented therapies. 

Attendees will be encouraged to rethink their relationship to the space between words and to develop techniques that enhance their own palette and that of their clients; amplifying effectiveness both in and between sessions.

Key Words:

Metacommunication, Experiential, Neurobiology, Silence, Somatic, Ego State, Brainspotting, Quantum Physics

Teaching Objectives

Attendees will:

1.    Be able to differentiate between structured and unstructured silence and demonstrate two ways to utilize them within the context of Clinical Sessions.

2.   Expand their understanding of how silence can be used to promote relationship both between therapist and client and within the client system (ie: between ego states).

3. Be able to identify three techniques that can be utilized to facilitate accelerated healing and articulate why they are effective. 

4. Be able to articulate the diagnostic implications of a client's need to speak vrs work in silence.

5. Be able to explain how neuroscience and quantum physics help explain the effectiveness of therapeutic interventions and the role of silence.
