HYPNOSIS, ENERGY THERAPY AND THE NEW REVOLUTION
IN THERAPY

    Today there is a quiet revolution occurring in the therapy field. More than ever before, therapists are challenged to find and use the correct healing tools which meet the needs of each individual client.

Origins of Modern Therapy
    Therapy has been gradually evolving since the revolutionary theories and practices
of Sigmund Freud were developed at the beginning of the Twentieth Century. Freud discovered the importance of the "unconscious" mind. He recognized and built a therapeutic technique (i.e. the "talking cure") out of the idea that our subconscious beliefs, motivations and emotional difficulties, caused by trauma, can control and influence every aspect of our lives. Freud abandoned hypnosis as it was used then, and theorized that talking and free association alone would allow people to release the damaging residue of traumatic events and they would then be enabled to lead healthy, fulfilling lives. Today's talking therapies come directly out of Freud's formulations of these basic techniques.
