A Guide to Trance Land: A Practical Handbook of Ericksonian and Solution-Oriented Hypnosis

A friendly and brief guide to the essentials of hypnosis.

Popular author Bill Oâ€™Hanlon offers an inviting and reassuring guide to the essentials of hypnosis, alleviating the newcomerâ€™s anxieties about how to make the most of this clinical tool. This brief book illustrates the benefits of solution-oriented hypnosis, which draws on the work of the pioneering therapist Milton Erickson (with whom Oâ€™Hanlon studied) and emphasizes doing what is needed to get resultsâ€”which, more often than not, means trusting that the client holds within him- or herself answers or knowledge that need only be tapped or released by the therapist. Oâ€™Hanlon covers the key aspects of hypnosis, including: using possibility words and phrases; using passive language; and inducing trance. Oâ€™Hanlon offers practical tips and friendly encouragement for the novice hypnotherapistâ€”in his characteristic warm, reassuring, and humorous style.
