The American Boards of Clinical Hypnosis is an umbrella organization made up of professionals in medicine, dentistry, psychology, social work, and nursing who use hypnosis in their healthcare practice. Members of the various Boards establish and administer examinations of advanced competence. A clinician who passes the exam is designated a Diplomate, recognizing experience, and high skills. But more importantly, successful candidates deserve the feeling of confidence and satisfaction they get knowing they have done something beyond the usual, and been recognized by their peers. The process involves thought, study, and mentoring. In this workshop, the Facilitator will give a brief overview of the value of being a Diplomate. Then the participants will have a chance to talk in groups with the President of their own specialty Board.
