Psychology; Hypnosis

Gafner turns his attention to the complaints and problems that are most commonly seen in the clinical setting. These ""bread and butter"" applications are the core of every successful therapeutic practice that employs hypnosis. By means of explanation, anecdote, and case study, readers are instructed in how best to address the basis needs of the clients and how best to put the fundamental concepts of unconscious process and ego-strengthening into action. Clinical Applications of Hypnosis is also a treasure trove of techniques, stories, and suggestions basic to successful hypnosis. Therapists new to the art will appreciate Gafner's clear description and thoughtful introduction to the use of hypnosis in therapeutic practice. Seasoned practitioners will appreciate find a fund of effective and carefully described techniques to be used to help to treat anxiety, depression and related disorders.

Reviews for Clinical Applications of Hypnosis

'A stark, moving narrative.' Daily Telegraph 'an ambitious project for a first-time novelist, but one that Malessa embarks on with confidence!he chronicles in dark detail an event that remains relatively unheard-of outside Germany.' Irish Times 'Rendered in understated prose, this vividly imagined landscape becomes all the more powerful.' Observer 'The opening chapters of The Flight are a lyrical evocation of the rural life and culture of this remote region!Recounted in sober, restrained prose, The Flight is unremitting in its depiction of the brutality of war and conquest. But there is something uplifting in the way Ida endures her terrifying journey with quiet courage, determined to protect her children at all costs.' Independent
