Commento di Jeffrey K. Zeig, Ph.D. Questa sessione ipnoterapeutica ha avuto luogo nel 1978 e, decenni dopo, è altrettanto potente e coinvolgente. Migliorare l'esperienza di apprendimento dello spettatore è la discussione del Dr. Zeig sugli elementi alla base dei metodi di Erickson: il modello di istruzione ARE; l'arte della comunicazione parallela; utilizzo mirato; e l'uso dell'implicazione. Il repertorio fluido di Erickson, tratto dal pensiero sistematico, include l'uso di aneddoti, comunicazione simbolica e semina strategica. La ricerca di soluzioni, basate sulla promozione di associazioni costruttive e pensieri e sentimenti flessibili, è un'area di particolare interesse e in cui Erickson era particolarmente elegante.
During this seminar, Dr. Erickson describes essential skills for working with resistant patients, the use of permissive language, ordeal therapy, geometric progression, and therapeutic double binds. Erickson conducts a demonstration, answers questions from the audience, and elaborates on his thinking with case illustrations that include: sexual dysfunction, stuttering, bed wetting, childhood eating disorders, compulsive habits, phobias and self-defeating behavior.
In this set, Erickson communicates the timeless principles of hypnosis that he observed, discovered and utilized. He emphasizes the paramount importance of protecting the patient and establishing trust as the very foundation of the cooperative relationship characteristic of hypnosis. He stresses the importance of understanding the meaningful need of the patient and reviews, with many examples, the techniques of rehearsal, uncovering, dissociation, regression, time-distortion, revivification, visualization, orientation to the past and to the future, trusting the unconscious mind, and post-hypnotic suggestion.
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.
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.
