For Hypnotists

National Guild of Hypnotists’ Annual Convention Presentation August 2022 Boston, Maryland:

When Your Client Mentions Suicide

This WILL happen to you: your client mentions suicidal thoughts. You do not need to be a Mental Health or Emergency Department expert. You do need to plan ahead. In this seminar, you’ll learn an appropriate and helpful response so you’ll be ready to professionally manage a client who mentions suicide in your office.

Kathie Hardy is a Board Certified 5-PATH® Hypnotherapist with nearly 40 years of full-time nursing experience, half of which was in the Emergency Department. In addition to working with people in the midst of psychiatric crises, Kathie experienced the death of a loved one by suicide. She sought solace through a Suicide Survivor Support Group and subsequently was a co-facilitator of that group for three years. She is eminently qualified to walk you through your ideal professional response, a response that differs from that expected from medical professionals. www.SalishSeaHypnosis.com

Dealing with the Difficulties of Sexual Assault Disclosure: Dos and Don’ts 

Your client discloses sexual assault.  How you respond to a disclosure is critical to the survivor's well being and recovery, whether the assault occurred 60 minutes or 60 years ago. An appropriate and supportive response is easy to learn in this 2 hour workshop. You will leave this workshop with a print and electronic version of a guide and you’ll be ready to professionally manage a sexual assault disclosure in your office.

During her 40 year career as a Registered Nurse, Kathie carried designation as a S.A.N.E. (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner), performing hundreds of Sexual Assault forensic exams in the Emergency Department over a 10 year period. She is uniquely qualified to help hypnotists respond appropriately and helpfully to disclosures of sexual assault, whether the client is a victim or a perpetrator. Kathie has a full time hypnosis practice in Bellingham, WA on Zoom. www.SalishSeaHypnosis.com
