The New Hypnosis - Daniel L. Araoz

Published by Brunner/Mazel in 1985, this volume presents papers from the Second International Congress on Ericksonian Approaches to Hypnosis and Psychotherapy, held in Phoenix, Arizona, in December 1983. It explores the theoretical foundations and techniques of Milton H. Erickson’s approach to psychotherapy, including hypnotic communication, therapeutic suggestion, indirect methods and the structure of therapeutic interventions. Contributions from practitioners and researchers examine how Ericksonian principles can be applied across different forms of psychological treatment. Volume I focuses on the underlying structures and methods, complementing Volume II, which concentrates on clinical applications.
