IntroductionSCEH is very excited to be celebrating its 71st anniversary at our 2020 conference. The conference continues the proud tradition of SCEH meetings to focus on the evidence base of clinical hypnosis. This year’s event will explore some new and varied topics, while providing attendees the opportunity to gain CE credits, engage in vibrant debate and learn best practices and tools from instructors and colleagues." All Presenters and Attendees are asked to familiarize themselves with SCEH Confidentiality Statement for Attendees and Presenters. Agenda is subject to change. SCEH reserves the right to cancel any workshop due to insufficient registration. Conference ThemeOur conference theme for 2020, Hypnosis to Enhance and Augment Treatment Outcomes, puts a focus on patient and client results and the power of hypnosis to positively impact patient care. During these unprecedented and challenging times, our 2020 conference will focus on teaching skills, creative interventions, and applications of clinical hypnosis. Workshops across three levels (Introductory, Intermediate/Skills and Advanced) will review the utilization of hypnosis as an adaptable adjunct to other therapeutic interventions for enhancing treatment outcomes. Consistent with prior SCEH conferences, participants can also attend the Scientific Program, a Poster Session and some networking events. The Scientific Program will offer keynotes, symposia and research presentations with speakers from across the world, addressing the scope of hypnosis in both psychological and medical settings.
Who Should AttendOur events are designed for: Psychologists; Physicians; Social Workers; Counselors; Dentists; Chiropractors; Master’s level Nurses, Clinical Nurse Practitioners and Health Care Coaches; other Master’s level licensed mental health and healthcare professionals, and clinical and experimental researchers in hypnosis.
