Our workshops review the research, regulatory status and clinical applications of CES and MET, safe and increasingly popular non-pharmacological modalities for the treatment of anxiety, depression, insomnia and pain. CES combines exceedingly well with CBT, EMDR and biofeedback therapies and can be invaluable as a clinical tool of every mental health practitioner. The workshop includes discussion of several patient case studies from a clinical psychology practice and also explores the role of CES in the process of memory reconsolidation with exciting new implications for psychological trauma treatments. Throughout the workshop, detailed information is provided on how to incorporate CES into clinical practice. Ample time for questions is available. Additionally, certificates of proficiency in Alpha-Stim® CES and MET from Electrometrical Products International, Inc. are awarded as part of this workshop. WSPA CE: 7 hrs* OBNM CE: 7 hrs**
