According to The American Society of Clinical Hypnosis-Education and Research Foundation (ASCH-ERF), “Clinical hypnosis has been a valuable treatment modality and adjunct for hundreds of years and has been used as an efficacious intervention in medical, dental, and behavioral health care. Clinical hypnosis incorporates understanding of current concepts of neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and neuroplasticity with effective patient relationship and communication skills. This effective and useful clinical strategy has been defined as a special state of mental functioning, the process to create that state, the experience of oneself in that special state, and all of the above.”
“Hypnotic trance has also been described as a state of focused attention, inner absorption, perceptual distortion, and openness to change. Clinical hypnosis is a powerful therapeutic intervention that draws upon the skill, adaptability, and creativity of clinicians.”
“The benefits of using clinical hypnosis in treatment situations include:”
- Rapid establishment of rapport and the hypnotic relation-ship developmental and readiness to change stages.
- Facilitation of change, ego-strengthening, personal mastery, and reduction of impediments to change.
- Cost-effective, collaborative, person-centered treatment.
- Providing patients with life-long skills for better health.
“American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH) – approved Level 1 (Basic) training in clinical hypnosis is the first of a series of training workshops that are a large part of the ASCH certification pro-gram in clinical hypnosis. ASCH approved workshops are taught by faculty with a wide range of health care experience in various disciplines who will demonstrate and teach workshop participants the concepts, principles, and processes of hypnosis. The workshop is comprised of a mix of didactic presentations, demonstrations, experiential exercises, and faculty led small group practice tailored to the specific needs, interests, and learning styles of workshop participants. At the successful completion of the workshop, participants will have been taught the knowledge and skills necessary to capably use clinical hypnosis and to begin to employ this strategy in their clinical practices. They will also be eligible for ASCH membership and included benefits as well as prepared to participate in Intermediate and Advanced level workshops.”

Embedding Sleep: A Targeted and Pragmatic Program for Hypnotherapists to help their Clients Sleep
Hypnosis is often used to treat sleep problems, but most published scripts are targeted towards simple insomnia – difficulty falling asleep in the absence of significant sleep or co-morbid mental health challenges. Most of our clients are much more complex, but few doctors or therapists have more than superficial knowledge of sleep and little or no training in the treatment of sleep disorders.
Embedding Sleep is a 7 week, online course that offers an introduction to sleep disorders (both primary and secondary to other mental health challenges), research about the effectiveness of hypnotic strategies for treatment, tools for evaluating sleep, and scripts to address specific sleep problems. In addition, you will learn practical, psychoeducational, and hypnotic strategies to treat complex sleep problems.
Cost: $397 + applicable tax

The Certified Executor Advisor Designation Program (CEA)
The Certified Executor Advisor designation program (CEA) is appropriate for counsellors working with Canadians to help them through the myriad of emotions and challenges that may present on the death of a loved one, the stress of being overwhelmed with work they’re not prepared for, simmering conflicts with spouses and siblings, financial problems arising from inheritances, risk of personal litigation and those working in mediation for any of the above.
CEA candidates come from the seventeen professions executors may turn to in the course of their duties. This means there are sixteen professions working with executors and their families across Canada looking for counselling services when problems arise. Naturally, they’re looking for counsellors who understand executor related issues.

FEI International Crisis Responder Network Training and CEU’s
As an international leader in crisis management services, we regularly recruit trauma specialists to join our crisis responder network. Crisis responders participate in short-term contract work in response to mass casualty events such as natural disasters, terrorist attacks and aviation accidents.

When deployed to provide support during a crisis, the trauma specialists will be compensated at an hourly rate ranging from $75-$90 USD/hour (depending on the level of support required for those impacted and as requested by our customer).
If you are interested in learning more about the training and the opportunity to become a member of our International Crisis Responder Network, please contact us at:414-359-6571 or you may see details on the training and register at the link below:

FEI Behavioral Health has been a leader in providing humanitarian support for over 40 years to our customers, their family members and, their communities following a critical event. At times the crisis may require organizational support such as an on-site debriefing. At other times, we may be asked to provide support on a larger scale due to a mass casualty event. In those situations, basic psychological first aid is provided.
FEI has experienced an increase in the requests for critical incident support from our customers. Additionally, with the escalation and threat of terrorism and natural disasters, FEI would like to invite your agency, and your clinicians, to join our elite network focused on providing the necessary support at the most critical times.

August 19th – Breaking the ADHD Code: A Novel, Neurologically Based Treatment Program for ADHD
Apart from using medication, treatment for ADHD symptoms has largely focused on symptom management. But even with medication, many people with ADHD continue to struggle with anxiety, conflict, emotional regulation, behavioural addictions, and health management. Many people unconsciously use adrenaline-producing behaviours to increase dopamine functioning, a pattern that may be effective in the short term but is quite destructive in the long term. This pattern has been conceptualized into the Adrenaline Addiction in ADHD model. (https://aaa.cambiumed.ca)
“Breaking the ADHD Code” is a program for therapists to learn the Adrenaline Addiction in ADHD model, and how to implement it with clients. The program involves approximately 6 hours of videos, which are to be previewed before the webinar, and a full day live webinar. There is also a follow-up two hour webinar three weeks after the initial webinar to help implement the program. For more information, please visit https://cambiumed.ca and click on the Breaking the ADHD Code logo.
