MANDATORY CONTINUING EDUCATION

Integrating Depth Hypnosis
into a Counseling Practice

Isa Gucciardi, PhD

Depth Hypnosis is an innovative and highly effective therapeutic model that combines elements of Buddhism, hypnotherapy, shamanism, and transpersonal psychology. Using the basic principles of Depth Hypnosis therapists can improve their ability to assist clients in terms of self-empowerment, and in connecting with and resolving core issues. The techniques offered in this class do not interfere with other modalities. Rather, they inform and expand the possibilities for almost any type of therapeutic paradigm.

Specifically, in this highly experiential class, students will learn:

• The basic principles of Depth Hypnosis.
• Hypnotic induction techniques.
• How to seamlessly incorporate the hypnotic state in the therapeutic setting.
• How to use the principles of Depth Hypnosis to maintain their own energy and focus.

She has received master-level training in shamanism in several different traditions and has studied shamanic practices for more than 25 years.
