Praise for Handbook of Hypnotic Techniques, Vol. 1:

“A fascinating, enriching, and practical book that illustrates the many complex roads that lead to the heart of Hypnotic Therapy. The authors, who are expert drivers of these roads, teach us how to drive safely, avoid potential pitfalls, and effectively achieve therapeutic goals that are respectful of each client’s nature.”—Camillo Loriedo, MD, PhD, Co-editor of TranceForming Ericksonian Methods, and Past-President, International Society of Hypnosis 

 

“Like a road sign, good clinical technique points to something beyond itself—to the core competencies of an effective therapist. In this book, a team of master clinicians describe and then beautifully illustrate essential skills for engaging the mind’s hidden resources and growth potential.”—Dan Short, PhD, lead author of Hope and Resiliency: Understanding the Psychotherapeutic Strategies of Milton H. Erickson, in co-authorship with Betty Alice Erickson and Roxanna Erickson Klein 

 

“This is a wonderful compilation of innovative clinical techniques for hypnosis practice. The book includes chapters by 11 respected clinicians from all over the world, allowing for a blend of mastering techniques, and developing one’s own voice and style individualized for each patient’s needs.

It’s easy to see why these techniques are regarded as favorites: They feature skillful combinations of creativity and purposefulness, structure and flexibility, and timeliness and timelessness. Clinicians who hope to learn solid, practical approaches to the use of hypnosis from recognized experts will undoubtedly appreciate this wonderful volume.” —Michael D.
