[Audio] BT12 Short Course 39 – Nightly Napping is Not Enough – Deborah Beckman, MS

This protocol goes beyond good sleep hygiene and gadgets by prioritizing the physiology of sleep with components of clients’ presenting complaint(s). Clinical demonstration, case applications and discussion provide opportunities to develop specific interventions.

Educational Objectives:

1. Assess clients’ language for relevant sleep-related language.
2. Describe three points during typical sleep cycles for strategic intervention.
3. Apply the provided trance script protocol to address several combinations of clients’’ disturbed sleep and presenting complain.
4. Discuss the clinical demonstration in terms of the elements of the protocol.
