American Hypnosis Association – Practice Builders Power Hour

Presented By: Mario Pescatore

Guest Speaker Mario Pescatore, CCHt, HMI Senior Instructor, Student Mentor, and practicing Hypnotherapist, shares strategies for advancing hypnotherapy practices while managing personal and community crises, such as the COVID-19 pandemic and recent California wildfires. Drawing from his extensive experience building rapport with individuals from all walks of life, Mario provides actionable advice for those navigating trauma themselves or supporting others through challenging situations. He emphasizes the importance of self-care, reminding us that focusing on health prevents the need to focus on illness.

In this episode, Mario offers practical tools and techniques to ensure hypnotherapists care for themselves, including building strong support networks and working with their own hypnotherapists. He provides guidance for helping clients shift from crisis mode to empowerment, practicing active and compassionate listening, and being patient in identifying their needs. Mario underscores the importance of meeting clients where they are and keeping personal biases or emotions from interfering with their progress. He also highlights the critical need to avoid burnout and maintain boundaries when working with those in crisis.

With thoughtful consideration of both the business and altruistic aspects of hypnotherapy, Mario offers valuable insights into balancing these often-opposing needs. His compassion, humor, and inspiring examples make this an episode not to be missed.
