Follow on Google News | Hypnotherapy training conference speaker debunks myths, promotes hypnosis as CAM methodologyHypnotherapy has been proven effective in over 2,000 clinical studies, yet is misunderstood by most medical, mental health and dental professionals. IMDHA Hypno Expo speaker Bruce N. Eimer, Ph.D., a licensed psychologist, will debunk the myths.
By: International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Assn The International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association® In this keynote talk, Dr. Eimer will discuss about how the hypnotherapy profession, which does not require licensure in most U.S. states, can build bridges of understanding with medical and dental professionals whose licensure typically requires years of college-level study. In his own private practice, located outside of Philadelphia, Dr. Eimer combines hypnosis with cognitive behavior therapy to help his clients stop smoking, lose weight, eliminate phobias, overcome depression and manage stress, and change unwanted behaviors. He is the author of several books, including Hypnotize Yourself Out Of Pain Now! A Powerful, User-Friendly Program for Anyone Searching for Immediate Pain Relief, Brief Cognitive Hypnosis: Facilitating the Change of Dysfunctional Behavior, and Ideomotor Signals for Rapid Hypnoanalysis: Dr. Eimer will outline his views about the essential elements for basic, intermediate, and advanced professional hypnotherapy training and professional hypnotherapy continuing education for all primary helping professions. He will also discuss the value of utilizing one's personal and professional life experience in developing one's skills and personal style as a professional hypnotherapist. Advanced degrees and certificates are no guarantee of competence or of good training, according to Dr. Eimer. He believes that proper training, depth of clinical and life experiences, and the right attitude constitute the best bet of clinical competence and effectiveness as a hypnosis and hypnotherapy practitioner. # # # # About the Hypno Expo The IMDHA’s annual Hypno Expo training event and conference ( http://www.imdha.com/ About the International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association® The IMDHA ( http://www.imdha.com ) is an interdisciplinary organization whose membership includes psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, marriage and family therapists, mental health counselors, doctors, nurses, dentists as well as teachers, addictions counselors, priests, ministers and many different types of therapists.
