Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991, this book covers a comprehensive range of the applications of hypnotic techniques in therapy for psychological disorders, and medical conditions where such techniques are a valuable adjunct. In the years before publication psychologists, medical doctors, dentists and allied professional workers had come to make increasing use of hypnosis in their work, and there was a considerable amount of relevant research literature available in journals. Such literature is reviewed, and served as a practical guide for professionals at the time. The book begins by explaining what is meant by hypnosis today, and traces its historical background. Some fundamental questions such as individual differences in susceptibility to hypnosis are discussed in relation to therapy. Separate chapters are devoted to the key topics of behaviour therapy, different forms of psychotherapy, psychosomatic medicine, the treatment of pain, and applications in medical and surgical procedures. The modern status of hypnotic techniques in obstetrics and in dentistry is reviewed, and a separate chapter on the use of hypnosis with children will be of special interest to educational and clinical psychologists. A final chapter reviews the use of hypnosis by various professions and para-medical disciplines, and discusses the possible abuses that may arise both through unqualified people seeking to practise "hypnotherapy", and by professionals acting outside their proper range of competence.

Download or read book Hypnosis in Clinical Practice written by Rick Voit and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is aimed at helping both newly trained and experienced mental health professionals become comfortable and adept in using hypnosis in their clinical practice. Despite dramatic evidence of the effectiveness of hypnosis and its growing acceptance, only a small percentage of psychotherapists employ their hypnotherapy training in their practices. This under-use of hypnosis is due to exaggerated misconceptions about its power and the resultant performance anxiety therapists experience after their training. This text is designed to address therapist performance anxiety surrounding the use of hypnosis by exploring the myths surrounding its power and therapeutic potential. The integration of a straightforward systematic hypnotic approach into therapeutic practice has value both in assessment and treatment. Using clinical anecdotes and personal experience, the authors of Hypnosis in Clinical Practice explain induction style and trance work in a way that is fundamental and highly accessible.

This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explains and demonstrates how to create and utilize mind-body connections for unknotting vexing problems. In the popular imagination, hypnosis is misconstrued as something done to people, as if the hypnotist hypnotizes them. And hypnotherapy is similarly misconceived as something done to clients’ problems, as if the therapist could unilaterally counter or cure them. In a refreshing departure from conception-as-usual, Douglas Flemons offers another view, articulating relational ideas about how minds and bodies communicate and learn. In his characteristically casual and concise way, Flemons explains and illustrates how hypnosis, like meditation, is invited, not induced, and how hypnotherapy entails the altering and unraveling of knotted strands of problematic experience, not the controlling and abolishing of labeled afflictions. The therapist gets in sync with clients so they can, together, extemporaneously facilitate changes to undesired thoughts, urges, emotions, sensations, or behaviors. This book takes you to the heart of hypnotherapy, to the respectful, playful practice of utilizing clients’ flow experience to collaboratively discover and create opportunities for embodied learning and therapeutic change.

Book excerpt: The scope of Erika Fromm's profound contributions to the clinical and research literature in hypnosis and related areas is reflected in this volume, which consists of chapters written by those who have worked closely with the noted psychologist and/or have been significantly influenced by her. The subject matter presented here ranges from detailed accounts and personal observations relating to Fromm's distinguished career, to some very new and valuable data on the psychophysiological correlates of hypnosis, the phenomenology of self-hypnosis, and an integrative model for short-term therapy. Several extensions of clinical technique for the treatment of trauma and severe psychopathology are also discussed. Professional therapists with an interest in personal growth, self-awareness, and creative mastery, whether or not they already have an interest in hypnosis, will derive significant benefits from this book. Readers who have previously eschewed hypnosis may find that this volume stimulates an interest that enriches their clinical practice and/or research.

Download or read book Handbook Of Hypnotic Phenomena In Psychotherapy written by John H. Edgette and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite their clinical utility, hypnotic phenomena are vastly underutilized by therapists in their work with patients. Whether this is due to uncertainty about how to use specific techniques constructively or how to elicit particular phenomena, or anxiety about not being able to obtain a desired result, this volume will guide hypnotherapists toward higher levels of clinical expertise. By describing varied hypnotic phenomena and how they can be used as vehicles of intervention, The Phenomenon of Ericksonian Hypnosis takes the therapist beyond these fundamental applications toward a broader, more sophisticated scope of practice. This immensely readable book addresses the selection, eliciting, and therapeutic use of hypnotic phenomena that are natural outgrowths of trance. It offers step?by?step instruction on eliciting age progression, hypnotic dreaming, hypnotic deafness, anethesia, negative and positive hallucination, hypermnesia, catalepsy, and other hypnotic phenomena. The book includes specific instruction on how to use the phenomena manifested in trance to provide more effective treatment. Numerous case examples vividly illustrate intervention with anxiety disorders, trauma and abuse, dissociative disorders, depression, marital and family problems, sports and creative performance, pain, hypersensitivity to sound, psychotic symptomatology, and other conditions. The Phenomenon of Ericksonian Hypnosis will be used by therapists as a valuable clinical tool to expand their conceptualizations of hypnosis, and thus enable them to offer a wider repertoire of skills with which they can confidently treat clients.

Download or read book Practical Clinical Hypnosis written by Robert G. Meyer and published by Jossey-Bass. This book was released on 1992 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of hypnosis can be traced as far back as 3000 B.C., when references were made in writings to "temple sleep" and to enchantment by the "evil eye." Since the sixteenth century, clinical hypnosis has been a controversial medical tool in the treatment of both physical and psychological maladies. Clinical hypnosis can be of potential help in a number of ways: mobilizing resources and strengthening motivation; developing and amplifying a relaxation response; providing access to material not usually accessible with other more conventional methods; confronting suppressed memories that are impeding progress; putting the client in touch with newer, more effective ego states; enhancing imagery for hypnotic or other techniques; and allowing for vicarious rehearsal of more effective behaviors and cognitions. In this comprehensive handbook, Robert G. Meyer examines the applications of hypnosis throughout history while offering step-by-step guidance for its clinical use today. Drawing on case studies from the available literature as well as from his own practice, Dr. Meyer presents various methods, including preliminary considerations, induction and deepening techniques, indirect and Ericksonian techniques, direct suggestion and posthypnotic techniques, and age regression and self-hypnosis. He also examines the use and effectiveness of hypnosis on habit and psychological disorders, pain management, dentistry, medical disorders, performance enhancement, children, and forensics. Finally, the book discusses ethical and legal issues and provides extensive guidance for the hypnotherapist who finds him or herself in court. Practical Clinical Hypnosis is unique in its interdisciplinary approach to the subject, and is essential to all practicing mental health professionals - for those new to hypnosis and those already practicing it - including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, counselors, and students in these disciplines, and also dentists and physicians who use or are considering using hypnosis on specific patients.

Because of my background in formal education I was originally drawn to studying with a recognized training provider, members of the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC). My training with them was excellent, however it was greatly enhanced by Jonathan Royle's material and indeed Royle's material was excellent and far superior to the recognized course. His therapy skills are equal if not greater than the majority of therapists I have met to date and he teaches everything he knows in an open and honest manner. We need people like Royle to raise the profile of Hypnosis and I would recommend his courses to anyone who wants to become a better Hypnotist!”Dr. WILF ARCHER – PhD – www.mindskills.co.uk“A few years ago I attended a training run by Paul McKenna, Michael Breen and Richard Bandler, it was good and I learned a lot but Jonathan Royle 's training course make's them seem like old nannies! There is absolutely no time wasting or useless information and Royle's unique manner of teaching makes everything very easy to learn and remember.

However after attending Royle's course I can honestly say that this is exactly what he does and he also teaches you what you need to know about clinical Hypnosis and his own approach of Complete Mind Therapy, in short this course is a worthwhile investment!”DEZ SELLARS – www.completemindtherapy.comIndeed many of Royle's Students have stated that this book teaches more of use in the real world of Hypnotherapy and Stage Hypnosis than all of the others on the market put together!
