Healing Scripts: Using Hypnosis to Treat Trauma and Stress Hardcover – December 25, 2007

To me this book takes the cake as far as hypnotherapy script books go. I've purchased and read quite a few script books and this one is just a notch above all the other ones. The writer adds a little more empathy into her scripts and seems to really speak to her clients when she's giving the scripts as if she's side by side with them, there's just something different there. I notice some other scripts in different books are more basic guidance without feeling like the therapist themselves is personally with them through the guided meditation, etc. In this book I really feel like the therapist is with the client through the process and that really adds another dimension to the scripts. I also notice more of a down to earth character and an ability to make sure the client is really getting the effect he or she needs along the way. She is not too cliche or overly clinical and I think her style fits for those wanting to seem more helper and less therapist. Along with Hypnotic Language, The Language Pattern Bible and Wordweaving, I would say this book is right behind them as far as instilling a core knowledge of hypnotherapy and a good idea of what hypnotic conversation is about. If you're only looking for one hypnotherapy script book I would recommend this one all day.

This was not what I was looking for. Was hoping to find a script for grief/trauma.

This book has been somewhat helpful, but I feel that it serves neither the experienced or inexperienced therapist. It lacks too much information for someone to use who is not experienced in hypnosis. For someone who is experienced in hypnosis, this books offers no depth or "A-Ha" moments in designing treatment strategies. Again, it's not terrible or completely useless.....but it's worth maybe on 2 to 3 dollars. If you pay any more, you're getting ripped off like me.

This is a good book to use as a reference when the therapist is begining in his/her practice. I used it to get ideas that stimulate my own creativity and resolve some questions and inquietutes that I had.

This book is probably good for therapists, I guess I was looking for something a little more metaphysical. I practice past life regression and prefer to get to the root of the problem. Its probably a very good book for the average hypnotherapist.

I was dissapointed. This was not even close to her previous books. I have no use for all this theoretical waste of time. I expectedpractically inventive scripts for everyday use.
