Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Depression is a debilitating human condition and a common cause of suffering worldwide. This elicits a sense of urgency for mental health professionals to meet this challenge of the treatment of depression. Hypnosis plays a vital role in that treatment and in the efficacy of psychotherapy. This book focuses on the structuring and delivering of hypnotic interventions for major depression, with a substantial use of concepts and techniques from cognitive-behavioral and strategic approaches as a foundation. Current research on depression is used in this book to emphasize the still-growing knowledge of depression. Hypnosis has shown itself to be effective in not only reducing symptoms, but in teaching the skills (such as rationale thinking, effective problem-solving and coping strategies, and positive relationship skills) that can even prevent recurrences. Mental health professionals will find the detailed examples of hypnotic strategies invaluable to their own practice and application of hypnosis in the treatment of depression.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A powerful, family-based approach to understanding and treating depression that goes way beyond Prozac Many people have been led to believe that depression is caused simply by a chemical imbalance in the brain, and as a result they look to science for convenient answers, hoping that "a capsule a day will keep depression away." Unfortunately, this narrow focus on biology and the use of medications has often led people to overlook other important influences, such as how our families can affect emotional health in powerful ways. "In Hand-Me-Down Blues, " Dr. Michael Yapko carefully describes how the family can play a crucial role in the development of and recovery from depression. Parents introduce their children to various life experiences and inevitably reveal their own values, perspectives, and biases. Children typically learn to interpret life events in the same way their parents do, and their interpretations can be a basis for depression. Once depression strikes, it distorts family relationships, splintering families as it spreads from one person to another like a virus. Thus, children can "inherit" depression less from their parents' genes and more from their parents' attitudes and behaviors. "Hand-Me-Down Blues" focuses on the influence of the family in the development and resolution of depression and explains how children learn to interpret life events in the same way their parent do. Readers can learn specific skills to help choose different, better responses to life's challenges. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

ZEIG, PH.D. Director, The Milton H. Erickson Foundation. The revised~ and considerably enlarged edition of this widely praised text introduces professionals to the nature of hypnosis and its use in therapy. The reader will find in these pages not just an extraordinarily clear and clinically useful guide to hypnosis, but also illuminating insight into the role of hypnotic patterns wherever influential communication occurs. The author describes practical methods for developing communication and relationship skills that will increase the effectiveness of every therapist's practice of psychotherapy. SECTION I provides a solid Conceptual Framework and includes chapters on Myths and Misconceptions about Hypnosis, Conceptualizing Hypnosis, Contexts of Hypnosis, Susceptibility to Hypnosis, the Experience of Trance, and Conditions for Trancework. SECTION II covers a Practical Framework, including Structuring Suggestions, Patterns of Hypnotic Communication, Suggestibility Tests, Naturalistic Trance Inductions, Trance Phenomena and Their Inductions, Therapeutic Utilization of the Trance State, Hypnotic Hazards and Ethical Guidelines. Of special interest are two new chapters offered in the second edition. Chapter 19 presents Hypnotic Trans~Scripts in six cases: pain, weight, stress management, goal orientation, adaptability, and self~definition. Chapter 20 provides the complete transcript of a session with a patient who is coping with terminal cancer. The author's line~by~line commentary serves to enhance and clarify this material. An unusual and stimulating new feature of Trancework is the use of interpolated "Frames of Reference" ~ interviews with leading figures focusing on various aspects of hypnosis and communication. These interviews provide intriguing personal perspectives on individuals whose impact on the field has been profound. Trancework is an essential text for formal trainings in hypnosis whether in academic settings or private workshops. Not only is the full range of theory and clinical practice explored, but exercises and assignments, concepts and terms to master, and topics for discussion follow each chapter. Every therapist who wants to work hypnotically with individuals will benefit from this important contribution.
