<p>The 1985 Evolution of Psychotherapy Conference was called the Woodstock of Psychotherapy. Writer Carlos Amantea penetrated every corner of the first Conference, talking with the psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors who attended,and writing down everything he saw from the ambience of the huge Phoenix Convention Center, to the tiniest feeling of angst that he (and many of the other participants) felt. Those who have read The Lourdes of Psychotherapy agree that it is some of the best reporting extant not only on a single meeting in Phoenix, but also on the psychotherapeutic ideas, conflicts,change and upheavals of the 1980s.</p>

This all-inclusive CD-ROM contains eight fully updated works of Milton H. Erickson, M.D. This easy-to-use software presents subject matter ranging from hypnosis to psychodynamics, unorthodox therapy, and mind-body healing. Erickson's experimental and therapeutic explorations with the hypnotic modality span over 50 years. This well-known pioneer's successful rejuvenation of the field can be attributed to his development of the non-authoritarian approaches to suggestion wherein subjects learn how to experience hypnotic phenomena and how to utilize their own potentials to solve problems in their own way. The editors of this text make a balanced presentation in which each volume identifies a major area of exploration. Appropriate sections within the papers are presented in a chronological order. Plus, each section has a brief introduction to the concepts of current neuroscience in order to understand Erickson's approaches to therapeutic hypnosis and suggestion. A summary of the 12 key concepts of current neuroscience and a mini-concordance of important terms shared by neuroscience and therapeutic hypnosis are presented in detail in each volume for easy reference. These papers present topics on: ? the ideodynamic action hypothesis of therapeutic hypnosis ? psychological shocks and creative moments in psychotherapy ? observation and training in therapeutic hypnosis ? dangers of hypnosis by nonprofessionals ? psychosocial genomics of mind-body healing for rehabilitation ? development of apparent unconsciousness during hypnotic reliving of a traumatic experience. These works offer creative approaches to therapeutic hypnosis, psychotherapy, and rehabilitation within the context of modern neuroscience and functional genomics. A video is also included that offers a biographical sketch and slide show on Erickson ranging from his birth in a log cabin in Nevada to his battle with polio, to his seminars and demonstrations in hypnosis.

<p>Want to be a more effective clinician? Want to avoid burnout? Want to better cultivate your unique brilliance? Jeff Zeig wants that too. It is good for the field, for clients, for those working on the front lines of mental health. With Evocation: Enhancing the Psychotherapeutic Encounter, Jeff invites therapists of all stripes and at every professional level to unshackle their creativity! He demonstrates the benefits, delineates the concepts, and shows readers how to put them into action. Jeff has studied and actually sat down with some of the foremost writers, filmmakers, and composers of our time so that he could better understand the grammar of impact from different perspectives. Just as a therapist hopes to orient a client to new opportunities, a poet seeks to awaken new possibilities. Evocation weaves together various rich threads encounters with art, exercises for reader engagement, case excerpts, insights into Erickson s cases, and so much more to reveal the endless potential for evoking fresh resolutions within clients. Jeff redefines the therapeutic encounter to include an essential multidimensional vocabulary spoken, gestural, hypnotic that can naturally ebb and flow with the client s capacity for engagement. The final contribution of a quartet of revelatory volumes Psychoaerobics, The Induction of Hypnosis, and Anatomy of Experiential Impact Evocation both builds on the previous books and stands alone.</p>
