Hypnosis; Psychiatry

In this book, Dr. Yapko demonstrates that hypnosis is a tool for treating depression and rebuts traditional criticisms of its use. He challenges the common belief that hypnosis can lead depressed individuals to psychosis, hysteria, or suicide, and argues that hypnosis offers precisely the flexibility and multidimensionality required by depression. Other issues addressed include hypnotic aspects of nonhypnotic therapies, depression and symptomatic trances, stages of treatment, the role of expectancy in treating depression, utilizing trance in treatment, structuring therapeutic learnings, and integrating hypnosis into therapy.
