Eriksonian therapy, developed by Milton H. Erickson, is a sophisticated approach to hypnotherapy characterized by its use of indirect suggestions, metaphors, and a client-centered, conversational style. It focuses on leveraging the client’s existing strengths and resources, fostering a strong therapeutic alliance, and utilizing flexible, adaptive techniques tailored to individual needs. This method enhances therapeutic outcomes by engaging the subconscious mind through subtle, permissive language and personalized interventions.
