In t his post 9/11 world, therapists need to expand their toolboxes to dealwith trauma and its side effects. This book provides a new way of dealing with the devastating emotional residue of a traumatic event. It centers on the innovative application of hypnotherapy to help trauma victims "self-actualize", regain their lives, and move forward again. Many people are familiar with the well-known "fight or flight" response to trauma, but few understand the "freeze" response. "Freeze" is the most dangerous of thetrio since it inhibits any reaction and leaves the victim immobile and can lead directly to PTSD. It is discussed in depth. Also included is a brief survey of brain research and its implications to dealing with trauma. For clinicians, this volume outlines the effects of trauma on the mind and bodya provides comprehensive treatment plans for the mental disorders caused orexacerbated by trauma.
