A Path With A Heart: Ericksonian Utilization With Resistant and Chronic Clients (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780876307182)

First published in 1993. Historically, hypnotherapy has been assiduously avoided in the treatment of psychotics. One of the myths around this is that hypnosis is too all-powerful- that it can precipitate psychosis in patients with fragile egos. This myth was disproved by Milton Erickson, the master psychiatrist whose extensive work with hypnotherapy is the basis for Yvonne Dolan's work on the treatment of chronic patients. Erickson was the first practitioner to consistently demonstrate the efficacy of formal and informal hypnotherapy with schizophrenics, and now Dolan has advanced Erickson's naturalistic techniques with her practical and common sense techniques.
