Editorial Reviews

Review

"This book is an authoritative resource for the hypnotherapist. Kevin Hogan brings theory into practice with remarkable success. Every intervention and skill is explained in the same tone that he has become well known for in the Journal of Hypnotism. This book is respectful of the client, of the medical community and hypnotherapy. I recommend it and know that it will soon become a classic standard text for serious students and professional hypnotherapists." Dwight Damon, D.C., President --National Guild of Hypnotists

"This is destined to become the bible of Hypnotherapy!" William Horton, Psy.D. --Author of Primary Objective

5.0 out of 5 stars SIMPLY THE BEST!, October 15, 2001

This review is from: The New Hypnotherapy Handbook: Hypnosis and Mind/Body Healing (Paperback)

As an Instructor of Hypnosis, I not only read this wonderful book, but it is also on my required reading list for my college students. Never before have I seen such a comprehensive text written on hypnotherapeutic practices that is so well written even one with no knowledge of Hypnotherapy can relate to it as well as understand the techniques. Hogan should be proud to accept his position beside such modern Hypnosis greats as such as Rossi, Cheek, and Erickson among others. The Time Track piece is simply amazing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Basic and Advanced Hypnosis, October 9, 2001

This review is from: The New Hypnotherapy Handbook: Hypnosis and Mind/Body Healing (Paperback)

The New Hypnotherapy Handbook was one of my textbooks for Kevin Hogan's hypnosis certification training. I particularly liked this book because it offers a model of hypnotherapy, a number of useful scripts, and solutions to dealing with difficult problems in hypnosis.

First, the model. CARPETS is Hogan's anacronym for Case Analysis, Regression, Parts/Ego State, Time Track Therapy and Suggestive Therapeutics. The highlight of the model is the Time Track Component. Never have I seen such a beautiful piece of work in the field of hypnosis. What you learn is how to weave a clients past and future positive resources into their present day state of mind. This modality alone is worth the ... price of the book.

The discussion of ethical issues, case analysis and legal issues is first rate. The details of regression are sketchy at first but made clear later in the book when his co-authors give verbatim transcripts of their session work. The ego state therapy is better described in Ego States by Watkins, but the treatment is sufficient. The specialty chapters on Emergency Hypnosis, Past Life Regression and even UFO abductions are tantalizing and always prefaced with cautions of ethical use and careful handling of the client.

This book started off a bit clumsily and then by Chapter Two it was clear it was one of the finest books on hypnosis I have read.

The New Hypnotherapy Handbook is a wonderful book for the advanced beginner and the seasoned practitioner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even better than the original!!!, October 17, 2001

This review is from: The New Hypnotherapy Handbook: Hypnosis and Mind/Body Healing (Paperback)

If you are a hypnotherapist who wants to really help people create permanent change this book is a must - period.
I own and have read, highlighted and reread the original Hypnotherapy Handbook. The pages are tattered because the concepts keep displaying deeper levels of understanding each time I read it.
Wow, despite that, I have gleamed even more insights from reading this one.
As I said above, if you want to really help people, buy and study this book.
