POSTGRADUATE MASTER DEGREE
IN ERICKSONIAN CLINICAL HYPNOSIS - Fourth Edition
50 ECM CREDITS
We planned a postgraduate course for clinicians who wish to learn hypnosis in a context in which exchange with colleagues from their own or from other specialization is possible. Having a degree in medicine, psychology or dentistry is an essential prerequisite. Our goal is to create a workshop in which operative skills can be learned through study, training and practice. In our experience with clinical professionals we observed that every clinician find some specific induction modes more suitable to his professional practice and to himself. At the end of the course, thanks to the acquired theoretical and practical knowledge, each participant will have had the chance to elaborate his own individual way to use hypnosis and to include it in the context of the other intervention practices that are used in therapy.
Structure of the course
After having presented the necessary theoretical concepts, the course will be practical and experiential: we will propose to participants exercise of increasing difficulty that will enable them to develop the necessary skills to use hypnosis in the best possible way in their clinical practice.
Organization of the Master
The master lasts one year and it is distributed in 7 meetings of three days each (since Friday to Sunday, once a month for 7 times). Dates are reported below. Classes will take place from April to December from 10:00 to 17:30.
