Description: Both counselors and hypnotherapists use techniques that help their clients change undesired habits or achieve personal and professional goals, yet some clients continue to experience unresolved inner conflicts that inhibit them from attaining their ideal empowerment. This book describes parts therapy, which uses hypnosis to identify conflicting parts that are damaging the well being of clients, then directs those parts to negotiate with each other through the therapist to bring about a resolution.

Review Quotes:
Dissociative disorders can be bewildering and challenging to the unenlightened health care professional. Written in a jargon-free and easy-to-read style, Marlene Hunter offers a wealth of useful insights into the complexities of dissociation, as well as providing constructive guidelines for physicians and health care professionals who encounter dissociative patients in their practice. She addresses a wide range of issues, from dealing with crisis, to recognizing symptoms, to the right questions to ask, to medications found to be effective and ineffective. This highly readable and authoritative text deserves a place on the bookshelves of all professionals with a desire to understand and help patients who present with dissociative symptoms.
