Erickson demonstrates his utilization method of entering into the client’s world. He demonstrates his unique approach to working with dreams using a parallel process to stimulate strategic understandings of restrictive family patterns.
A client asks Erickson to help him stop smoking tobacco. Rather than using a formula, Erickson tailors a treatment approach to both address underlying problems and elicit resources.
Erickson works hypnotically with a naive subject. He demonstrates the use of arousal state and destabilizing methods. Hypnosis can stimulate resources into play that can promote adaptive living.
In Part 2 of Dr. Erickson’s Orientation to Sexual Development, Milton Erickson continues his interesting lecture about the natural developmental processes involved with sexual/relational maturity. This video begins with Erickson telling charming stories of his sons sexually and relationally developing, which illustrate the principles outlined in the video.
Milton Erickson often advised psychotherapy students to study anthropology so that therapy could be provided from the perspective of the cultural background of the client. In the video, Erickson uses his understanding of cultural orientation when working with an adolescent where the presenting problem is a speech defect. This is a highly informative case of using strategic and systemic processes that can be applied to other presenting problems.
Este video contiene la mejor ilustración de cómo Milton Erickson maneja los casos que se le presentan. Utilizando tanto la hipnoterapia como las directivas estratégicas, Erickson trabaja con una mujer que tiene fobia a volar en un avión. Este caso significativo ejemplifica los principios y prácticas fundamentales de un enfoque ericksoniano. Estos pueden aplicarse a otros problemas que se presenten y ser utilizados por los médicos que se suscriben a otras metodologías de tratamiento para un problema en particular.
