This book helps hypnotherapists to focus on the subject of regrets and associated emotions when working with clients.

Promoting the concept of “the road of regrets”, this book presents a five-stage process for the hypnotherapist to work through with clients (adults and children aged 5+). The process involves identifying and acknowledging regrets; working through the regrets and associated emotions; taking any necessary action before releasing the regrets and emotions; and finally moving on to plan for the future. The book contains over 60 customisable scripts, guidance notes and appendices to promote ideas for practice. The scripts offer a variety of methodology to choose from: regression (including past lives); metaphors (Ericksonian); benefits approach; Gestalt therapy and solution-focused. The appendices include practical resources such as questionnaires, checklists, summaries, forms, and worksheets for exercises which the hypnotherapist can utilise in sessions (individual or group).

This practical volume will be of use to student hypnotherapists, trainers and training schools, supervisors, newly qualified and experienced hypnotherapists. Although the main focus of the book is regrets and associated emotions, the book can be used for an abundance of other concerns e.g. lack of confidence or self-esteem; fears; anxiety and panic attacks.

Reviews for Hypnotherapy with Regrets and Associated Emotions: Ideas for Practice

'Written in a comprehensive yet simple and accessible manner, Hypnotherapy with Regrets and Associated Emotions: Ideas for Practice is a highly applicable, generalisable and useful text. The content is excellent and very thorough and well written. It contains a useful chapter explaining how to use the diverse ideas for working with both children and adults, and a very large range of type or regrets covering all areas. The scripts themselves are thorough and well written and provoke other ideas in the reader. There is a wide and varied theme for the scripts providing something suitable for every client and their style/interests. Most significantly, I like the encouragement for practitioners to apply some of the book to themselves through self-reflection. I certainly intend to use and suggest that any hypnotherapists that I train purchase this unique book.'
