Hypnosis: Yes, it does relate to Collaborative Divorce
Don Hardy Holley’s comments about his presentation at the Collaborative Divorce Professionals of San Antonio Luncheon on Friday, November 10, 2017. The Title of the presentation was:
“Hypnosis: Yes, it does relate to Collaborative Divorce.”
I gave a simplified introduction to hypnosis and its history. I described the basic hypnosis methods most people hear about.
Then I presented a drawing which describes the difference in Hypnotherapy and Hypnoanalysis. I then discussed uses of each, especially Hypnoanalysis, emphasizing using it with trauma and how that relates to divorce.
We discussed whether hypnosis can be used to forget (usually it cannot) an affair, etc., and whether it can be used to “save a marriage.” It can be used to treat marital problems in conjunction with other types of therapy.
Often there is trauma before a divorce. Also, divorce itself can be traumatic and the trauma can be relived over and over during the process and beyond.
We also spent time discussing how hypnosis is a suggestion. So, we discussed using suggestions with clients and families going through a divorce. A list of suggestions which can be adapted to a particular situation was handed out and discussed.
