About the WorkshopsSCEH Midyear Clinical Hypnosis Workshops are designed to empower attendees with evidence-based skills and training in the application of hypnosis for mental health, medicine, and general wellness, creating a positive effect on health worldwide. While research shows that hypnosis is effective in enhancing client/patient treatment outcomes, far too few health professionals can conduct hypnosis skillfully. Workshop attendees gain knowledge and competence, can put hypnosis to immediate use in their work, and are aided by a better understanding of the uses and limits of evidence-based hypnosis practice. Three levels of workshops are tailored to the needs of those who:
SCEH hypnosis training programs are of the highest teaching quality and feature experiential learning allowing attendees to put learned concepts into immediate practice. Workshops will be submitted for up to 12.5 CE/CME credits, depending on workshops selected.

Sunday, April 30, 2023301 – Hypnosis and Hypnosis-Related Techniques for Labor, Delivery, and other Obstetrics Applications Katalin Varga, PhD, Department of Affective Psychology, Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary April 30, 2023 Workshop Description: In this workshop, I will introduce the concept of quality of labour/birth. I will explore how and why it is that even in cases where both mother and baby are 'well' (i.e., alive), the labor/birth can still be of poor quality.I will start from the premise that, in addition to their known physical effects, the hormones associated with childbirth also have a number of emotional, motivational and mind-altering effects on the woman giving birth. In natural cases, psycho-affective effects allow the experience of childbirth to be euphoric and ecstatic, despite/alongside the strong physical-physical sensations in natural childbirth. My hypothesis is that synthetic substances used to induce and accelerate labor, as well as pharmacological painkillers used to medicate, do not bring these emotional-motivational changes, but at the same time they have a violent effect on the physical processes. Thus, the alteration of the state of consciousness will most often be an increasingly sharpened negative trance. It follows from all this that the main thing to do is to support the natural alteration of consciousness and psycho-affective changes. This can be done by counteracting the negative suggestion that inhibits this, and hypnotic suggestion can be used effectively to convey positive content. We will analyze several case vignettes, identifying the suggestive effects. Case-descriptions will also be used to follow the application of these techniques during a process. About the Presenter: Dr. Katalin Varga is a professor at Eötvös Loránd University (ELTE), the head of the Department of Affective Psychology, past president of the Hungarian Association of Hypnosis, and board member of the International Society of Hypnosis.As a member of the “Budapest hypnosis research laboratory,” she is investigating hypnosis in an interactional framework, and in this multilevel approach she is focusing on the phenomenological data. For the past 30 years, she has been working with patients in a hospital setting – mostly critically ill patients – applying suggestive and hypnosis techniques. She is the founder and professor of the postgraduate training of suggestive communication in somatic medicine, co-organized by the Hungarian Association of Hypnosis and Semmelweis University School of Medicine, Budapest. She has published numerous articles and books which present her research findings on hypnosis, and clinical experiences on the application of suggestive techniques with the critically ill.

302 – Hypnosis for Hot Flashes and other Common Issues for Healthy Women Gary Elkins, PhD, ABPP, ABPH, Professor of Psychology and Director of the Mind-Body Medicine Research Laboratory, Baylor University, Waco, TX and Editor, International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis. April 30, 2023 Workshop Description: Hot flashes are a prevalent symptom after menopause (natural and surgical), but also after treatment for breast cancer. It is estimated that over 25 million women in the United States have hot flashes (HFs),] with up to 80% of women in the general population reporting hot flashes during the menopause transition. Hot flashes negatively impact health related quality of life. Over half of the women with a history of breast cancer report their hot flashes as severe. Hot flashes can cause sweating, discomfort, anxiety, fatigue, and can interfere with sleep leading to adverse health outcomes. Hypnosis is an effective option for hot flashes. Dr. Elkins and colleagues have developed a hypnosis intervention involving standardized audio recordings of hypnosis for home practice and individualized hypnosis inductions delivered by a clinical researcher. This treatment reduced the frequency and severity of Hot Flash Scores (HFS) by approximately 80% on average in postmenopausal women with and without a history of breast cancer, which is comparable in efficacy to that of hormone replacement therapy. In this webinar, participants will learn about the research on hypnosis for hot flashes and improving sleep in post-menopause women and breast cancer survivors. The methods of assessment of hynotizability, session-by-session hypnotherapy, scales to measure progress, and the use of available apps to encourage home practice of self-hypnosis to reduce hot flashes. A combination of lecture, PowerPoints, case examples, and demonstration will be utilized. About the Presenter:Dr. Gary Elkins is a Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience at Baylor University and the Director of the Mind-Body Medicine Research Laboratory where he conducts research into mind-body interventions including hypnosis, mindfulness, and music for sleep, pain, and hot flashes. Dr. Elkins is the leading researcher and expert on hypnosis for hot flashes and sleep disturbances as well as other clinical applications. He is an Adjunct Professor, Texas A&M University College of Medicine and a Medical Associate with Baylor Scott and White Hillcrest Medical Center. Dr. Elkins is the co-developer of the Evia app that provides hypnosis intervention for hot flashes and sleep provided by Mindset Health. Dr. Elkins serves as Editor-in-Chief of the International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis. Dr. Elkins has over 100 publications which include five books: Handbook of Medical and Psychological Hypnosis: Foundations, Applications, and Professional Issues; Hypnotic Relaxation Therapy: Principles and Applications; and Complementary and Alternative Medicine for Psychologists: An Essential Resource; Relief from Hot Flashes. In recognition of his research, he has received major awards: the Society of Behavioral Medicine (2012, Complementary and Integrative Medicine Investigator Research Award), and the Distinguished Contribution to Science Award from Division 30 of the American Psychological Association. Dr. Gary Elkins and his wife, Guillerma Elkins, live in Waco, Texas and have a large family in the Austin, Texas area. He enjoys fly fishing, horseback riding, hiking, exercise, and research and teaching. He is enthusiastic about teaching and mentoring students, and improving health care through mind-body medicine.

Monday, May 1, 2023303 - Using Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy and Hypnosis to Help Individuals Manage Cancer-Related Fatigue: Julie B. Schnur, PhD and Guy H. Montgomery, PhD, Center for Behavioral Oncology, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, New York May 1, 2023 Workshop Description: Fatigue is one of the most common and challenging side effects associated with cancer and its treatment. In 2014, our group published the results of an RCT (n=200) showing that women undergoing breast cancer radiotherapy, who received an intervention combining cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT, specifically Rational-Emotive Behavior Therapy) and hypnosis, had significantly less fatigue for up to six months after radiotherapy than women who received an empathic listening condition. In the workshop, we will be reviewing the guidelines and evidence supporting the intervention and the combination of CBT and hypnosis more broadly, and we will be teaching you how to conduct this CBTH intervention according to the treatment manual. We will role-play how to conduct each component of the intervention (e.g., how to conduct an REBT thought record worksheet, how to encourage the use of behavioral techniques to manage fatigue, and how to conduct our fatigue-focused hypnosis intervention), and how to move beyond the manual and beyond the radiotherapy setting to apply it to your patient populations. Our goal is for this to be a relaxed, informative, and fun workshop for anyone interested in oncology settings. About the Presenters: Dr. Julie Schnur is an Associate Professor in the Department of Population Health Science and Policy at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, co-Director of the Dubin Breast Cancer Psychology Clinic, a member of the Center for Behavioral Oncology, and a licensed clinical psychologist. Her overall program of research is focused on understanding patients’ experiences of cancer and its treatment, developing psychological interventions to help patients manage symptoms and side-effects associated with cancer and its treatment, and to training cancer care providers in sensitive practice and evidence-based psychological interventions. Her clinical work is focused on supporting women with breast cancer throughout the cancer continuum, from diagnosis, through treatment, through survivorship and during end of life. Her clinical work integrates psychotherapeutic approaches including cognitive-behavioral therapy and mind-body techniques (e.g., hypnosis). Dr. Guy Montgomery is a Professor in the Department of Population Health Science and Policy at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Director of the Center for Behavioral Oncology, and a licensed clinical psychologist. His research, training, and clinical efforts are focused on improving patients’ quality of life associated with cancer and its treatment. In particular he is focused on developing and testing mind-body interventions to reduce the symptoms and side-effects associated with cancer and its treatment, including pain, nausea, and fatigue. His work recognizes that how we think (e.g., how we evaluate situations, our expectations about how we’ll react to medical treatment), and how we feel emotionally (e.g., anxiety, distress) can have profound effects on how we feel physically. His goal is to provide all cancer patients with the tools and skills they need to enhance their quality of life during the rigors of cancer treatment. He is a past president of the American Psychological Association’s Society for Psychological Hypnosis (Division 30), and a Fellow of the American Psychological Association. He has published more than 100 peer-reviewed empirical articles, and has received funding from the National Cancer Institute, the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, and the American Cancer Society for his research and training efforts. Most importantly, he loves teaching about hypnosis. Learning Objectives

304: Mind Matters: Psychosocial Oncology, Women’s Health and Hypnosis David Spiegel, MD, Professor, Stanford University, Department of Psychiatry/Major Laboratories and Clinical & Translational Neurosciences Incubator, Palo Alto, CA May 1, 2023 Workshop Description: We are thoughtful, emotional, and social as well as physical beings. Even serious problems such as cancer that clearly damage the body can be best handled by attending to cognition, emotion, and social support as well as the use of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and newer immunomodulatory and other treatments. Marital status affects survival time with cancer – in large scale studies being married is associated with an overall 4-month longer survival time – equivalent to the overall effect of chemotherapy. Depression, abnormal diurnal cortisol levels, and lower heart rate variability predict shorter cancer survival. This means that addressing psychosocial problems has the potential to add to both quality and quantity of life. Interventions involving enhancing social support, hypnosis for assistance with pain, insomnia, and stress will be presented and evaluated. With cancer, it is not simply mind over matter, but mind matters. About the Presenter: Dr. David Spiegel is the Willson Professor and Associate Chair of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Director of the Center on Stress and Health, and Medical Director of the Center for Integrative Medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine, where he has been a member of the academic faculty since 1975 and was Chair of the Stanford University Faculty Senate from 2010-2011. Dr. Spiegel has more than 40 years of clinical and research experience studying psycho-oncology, stress and health, pain control, psychoneuroendocrinology, sleep, hypnosis, and conducting randomized clinical trials involving psychotherapy for cancer patients. He has published thirteen books, 404 scientific journal articles, and 170 book chapters on hypnosis, psychosocial oncology, stress physiology, trauma, and psychotherapy. His research has been supported by the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Cancer Institute, the National Institute on Aging, the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Fetzer Institute, the Dana Foundation for Brain Sciences, and the Nathan S. Cummings Foundation. He was a member of the work groups on stressor and trauma-related disorders for the DSM-IV and DSM-5 editions of the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. He is Past President of the American College of Psychiatrists and the Society for Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis and is a Member of the National Academy of Medicine.
