Product reviews for Hypnotically Enhanced Treatment for Addictions

When I started reading this book, I thought “here we go again, another one of those authors informing us of his way being the right way of doing things”. I have to say I was more than pleasantly surprised.

There are different philosophies of working with addictions and although I do not agree with them all of them personally, they are all valid approaches and should be considered. The author makes it clear that we need to listen to the individual client and learn quickly how they operate as well as following a structured treatment programme that he subscribes too. The book is full of suggestion scripts, metaphors and techniques that work with the presenting problem and would certainly boost the hypnotic -˜kit bag'. I set out not wanting to like this book but upon reading it I can do nothing more than highly recommend it as a well rounded, idea initiating information carrier, particularly for the newer therapist to the profession.
