Clinical hypnosis is a process used for treating psychological and physical problems. Through hypnosis a person achieves a relaxed state in which their conscious and unconscious mind become focused and ready to receive therapeutic suggestions.
Everyone has experienced some form of hypnosis. Hypnotic trance states occur daily in our lives. How many times have you arrived at a destination in your car, having not remembered much between putting your keys in the ignition and the last turn into your driveway? Or have you ever been startled out of a deep concentration in a TV program upon hearing your name spoken? When used professionally, hypnosis is safe, relaxing and refreshing.
Hypnosis has a long history and has been known by many names. In 1841, James Braid, MD, coined the name, hypnosis. In 1958, the American Medical Association approved of the use of hypnosis as an appropriate therapeutic technique.
Hypnosis is used in many ways, for psychological, medical, and dental problems. In psychotherapy, your therapist may use hypnosis to assist you in resolving smoking and weight control, fears, depression, anxiety, stress, sexual problems, alcoholism, pain control, confidence building, memory and concentration, retrieving repressed memories, even to facilitate physical healing.
Your professional psychotherapist will determine if and when to use hypnosis. After taking a complete history and planning treatment goals with you, hypnosis may be used to facilitate treatment.
Your therapist should have received professional training in hypnosis at the graduate level. Such training is usually taken at continuing education workshops and seminars. It is recommended that the professional receive at least 75 clock hours of instruction and supervision in clinical hypnosis.
Since the length of treatment varies with the problem and the individual, hypnotic treatment may take one to several sessions. Often hypnosis is used in conjunction with other therapies. Hypnosis is usually used in short-term therapy.
There are several misconceptions about hypnosis. Actually, the subject controls the trance while the therapist is merely the facilitator. The subject can go more deeply into trance if they desire, or terminate the trance by opining their eyes. You cannot be made to do anything against your will.
Another misconception is that through hypnosis you will lose consciousness. A hypnotic trance is another level of conscious awareness. At no time do you become unconscious. Rather you are aware of what is being said and what is going on around you at all times.
You will not begin talking or revealing information you wish to remain a secret. Often a person in hypnotic trance will talk when that is agreed upon with therapist. However, you will say nothing against your will.
Hypnosis is not sleep. The hypnotic EEG pattern is different from the sleep EEG pattern.
Finally, there is no danger of being unable to come out of a trance. Since you are always in control, you may terminate the trance at any time. In the hands of a trained professional, hypnosis can be a very beneficial means of helping resolve problems.
