Hartland's Medical and Dental Hypnosis

A practical and comprehensive guide to using clinical hypnosis in the treatment of medical and psychological problems. Written for doctors and dentists, this extensively revised edition covers key techniques, approaches, and practical management guidelines. It challenges traditional conceptions of hypnosis and offers an eclectic framework based on mainstream cognitive-behavioral approaches. Sample scripts and ethical considerations are included for readers looking for a springboard to clinical practice. With a focus on anxiety, sleep, smoking, weight-loss, psychosomatic complaints, pain, and more, this guide remains an essential introductory text.
