Dealing with Different Types of Losses Using Hypnotherapy Scripts is a unique practical resource for hypnotherapists which considers many aspects of loss rather than focusing solely on dying, death and bereavement. It presents new ways of looking at loss and from many different perspectives. Hypnotherapists will be encouraged to reflect on their own attitudes, values and ways of working on a one-on-one basis and in groups. Loss is inherently important because it can be identified when therapy is already underway and sometimes when it was not the original problem presented to the hypnotherapist. The author is a registered hypnotherapist who has put together a comprehensive range of tried and tested scripts and visualisations for both adults and children (age 5+). The scripts offer a variety of methods to choose from such as: solution-focused, metaphors (Ericksonian), Gestalt therapy, benefits approach and regression. The appendices include an assortment of practical resources and materials, such as: exercises, handouts, questions, forms for the hypnotherapist to use for notetaking during sessions and for developing plans after a hypnotherapy session has taken place. The book will be of use to students, newly qualified and experienced hypnotherapists and trainers working in hypnotherapy training schools.

It's a process that delves into the depths of the human mind, aiming to unlock and harness its extraordinary potential for healing, self-improvement, and transformation. At its core, hypnosis is a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, allowing individuals to explore the vast realms of their subconscious. This unique mental state has been harnessed through a variety of techniques and methods, each offering its own intriguing approach to accessing the unconscious mind. In the realm of hypnotherapy, professionals employ an array of techniques to facilitate the induction of a trance-like state in their subjects. These techniques are designed to lead individuals into a state of deep relaxation, heightened focus, and mental receptivity, thereby enabling them to tap into their inner resources and bring about therapeutic change. From progressive muscle relaxation to guided imagery, each method draws upon different facets of the human psyche, all with the ultimate aim of guiding individuals towards self-discovery, healing, and personal growth.
