Gina Fricke, LCSW and Joseph Tramontana PhD both provided a training at the Midwest Conference on Problem Gambling and Substance Abuse on June 28, 2013. For many clinicians who attended our breakout session, this was their first glimpse at using hypnosis with gamblers. I have been using several skills learned through the American Society for Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH) with my clients for over a year now. I have found that hypnosis, in addition to being a great way to teach relaxation skills is also a great way to introduce more helpful beliefs about the self, others and even life in general. If you are interested in learning more about how I use hypnosis with my clients especially in gambling treatment feel free to give me a call at 402-515-7412. I look forward to talking with you.
