Hypnotherapy is arguably the oldest modality of psychological
therapy, at least in the modern sense. Psychologists have long
attempted to conceptualize hypnosis in terms of cognitive and
behavioral processes and the term cognitive-behavioral approach to
hypnosis was first coined in 1974 by Theodore Barber, and his
colleagues, one of the most prolific and influential researchers in
the field of hypnosis. Since then cognitive research on hypnosis
has continued to evolve alongside the assimilation of modern
cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques within the framework
of hypnotherapy and vice versa. This book explores the historical
and conceptual relationship between hypnotherapy and
cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT). It proceeds to offer a modern
cognitive conceptualization of hypnosis, based on the writings of
James Braid the founder of hypnotherapy and drawing upon modern
cognitive-behavioral research on hypnosis. The author carefully
explores the combination of hypnosis with both cognitive and
behavioral interventions and ways in which methods can be adapted
in the light of therapeutic principles derived from both fields.
The book aims to provide a comprehensive core text for the practice
of cognitive-behavioral hypnotherapy and to facilitate further
dialogue between practitioners of hypnosis and CBT."
