The Ottawa Anxiety & Trauma Clinic (OATC) invites you to attend 2 weekend workshops on:
Enhancing Therapist's Flexibility, Creativity, & Efficiency
- An Ericksonian Toolbox
With Dr. Liliana Cané, psychologist,
Director of the Milton H. Erickson Institute of Montréal.
Dr. Liliana Cané has extensive experience in university level teaching across many European and American countries, as group facilitator, and in directing hospital-based mental health services. She is both a highly reputed consultant and a psychotherapist in her private clinic in Montreal.
- Learn how to accompany patients from depression to happiness, from post-traumatic stress to perspectives towards life, from burn-out to a life of creative challenges.
- Two weekends dedicated to explore therapeutic skills that promote client progress and therapist satisfaction.
WORKSHOP A: MAY 7 & 8, 2011
WORKSHOP B: JUNE 4 & 5, 2011
Each weekend can be taken individually, although participation in both is strongly advised.
No prior experience in hypnosis is required. Although inspired in Ericksonian derived approaches, this program offers an opportunity to advance clinical skills to professionals of all orientations.
Workshop Goals
- Review basic Ericksonian communication skills that rapidly enhance and deepen therapeutic alliance and motivate client's receptiveness to change.
- Explore advanced Ericksonian strategies that 'trick' the mind into experiencing healing positive emotions.
- Learn how to build repairing emotional experiences.
- Master subtle strategies that radically orient the therapeutic process towards 'happy' solutions.
- Understand the logic of the depressive mind and become a flexible motivator towards optimism.
- Identify the stuck ineffective thinking and feeling of the traumatized patient and learn how to reframe relentlessly.
- Comprehend the creative -but hidden- aspirations of clients in burn-out and create new pathways for their expression.
