Ericksonian Hypnosis - Certification Course
2024-03-17 at 18:46 Pacific Time

I have been looking forward to this course for quite some time. It is an absolute pleasure to have been instructed by Michael. I often liken therapy to jujitsu, which means "gentle art", except, perhaps by no fault of their own, therapists are not so gentle and rely more heavily on techniques and scripts than the principles which supersede them. The fact that so many therapists struggle with indirect suggestions should tell one that things have become more skewed in telling or commanding a client how to feel, rather than maintaining a gentle art of utilizing what the client gives us, beyond just the words which we ourselves prompt or coerce out of them at times, based on particular questionnaires. Erickson seems to have been about phenomenological renditions of experiential resources, recognizing that experiences change people, and not suggestions. When a client learns it is not just because of the words themselves, but the procedure by which they become true for the client`s own internal experience and resource states. I believe Erickson recognized, as a truism, that a person with a said issue always, at some level, at some point, has moments whereby they experience the absence of said issue. Whether this be through hypnotic phenomena which occurred or not, this allows for there to always be an entry point for utilization towards positive change. If a client gives you a metaphor, personification being the primary interface between the unconscious mind and the conscious mind, give it back to them and play around with it as you yourself go into a communal trance with your client. It`s a collaborative procedure. Enjoy the process. "You can imagine anything and master it." - Milton H. Erickson.

STOP IT: Overcome Overthinking for Good - AHA Conference
2024-03-15 at 13:31 Pacific Time

I really enjoyed this lesson about Overthinking and it gave me a lot of new insight into what it is and how to overcome it which is something that I really relate with and am sure a lot of my future clients can too. The presentation was very detailed in the short amount of time it was presented and I was able to get a lot from it.
B.M. from Canon City, Colorado

Motivational Interviewing (MI) - NEW Certification Course
2024-03-09 at 20:54 Pacific Time

I cannot speak to just how valuable this course is and how integrative it is to the practice of hypnotherapy, or rather subconscious behaviourism, as a whole. In the event where overcoming homeostasis is needed, and journeying alongside the client to overcome that loss in doing so is most rewarding in its outcome, this is the course to take in performing that ability, regardless of the client's level of ambivalence. I truly enjoyed this material.
J.L. from Mobile, Alabama


Motivational Interviewing (MI) - NEW Certification Course
2024-03-09 at 19:35 Pacific Time

Awesome class. Very timely for me, Millers text is the core of the AS091 course at LA Pierce College Addiction studies program. It helps me identify less than productive behaviors, at which I excel, and the reasons for client retention and client ab-reaction that I have experienced. This is not a training, it's an open door TO training and all the reasons it could be beneficial. Very nice presentations, super compressed without feeling rushed. Nice media inclusion and good references for future study. I'm hoping HMI might offer an MI workshop with supervised roll-play. Good job Dr. Kasper.
S.S. from Tarzana, California


Motivational Interviewing (MI) - NEW Certification Course
2024-03-09 at 19:25 Pacific Time

What an incredible class! I genuinely enjoyed the entirety of this live event in Motivational Interviewing (MI) with Randy Kasper. She is one of my personal favorite AOS Professors. I have consistently been charmed by how genuine and authentic she consistently comes through in all her classes and case conferences. She has a very natural bordering on innate ability to reflectively listen and actively apply the many tools discussed within this class on Motivational Interviewing. I find her to be truly admirable and awe inspiring. I could not be much more grateful to have been able to take this live event with her today. And so, I thank HMI, the AHA, and Randy for their 'collaboration' in bringing this to fruition. It has been such an honor to be a student of AOS, particularly Randy. And as my completion date looms I greatly look forward to more events like this one, to allow for further influence to take root in my continuing education and personal growth journey.
