Ericksonian Hypnosis and Personal Development

"Personally, it was the first step in a life-calling. I don't know if you've ever had this experience before, but it's like finding the right shoe that fits you perfectly. The possibilities and potential that exist within it encompass everything that you desire in life. This is what I found in the role of a personal development coach. Within the hypnosis models that exist Ericksonian Hypnosis is the most subtle and the most effective a model that I've found for personal development.

In fact, its power is in its ambiguity and for this very reason as a hypnotherapist I often don't even need to know the specific details of the client’s problem. It’s more important for me to have a general idea as to what they want to achieve and create an environment within which a client can resolve the challenge at hand. The client will give me feedback through their physiology and language which often comes out in the form of metaphor and imagery to describe their experience as we reframe their old problem.
