Description
Description: This dialogue explores how hypnosis can support medical patients who are overwhelmed by pain, illness and anxiety. The clinicians show how somatic symptoms, personal meaning and emotional history all shape the experience of disease, and how tailored metaphors, patient-generated imagery and empathic pacing can open the door to relief. Participants learn practical ways to blend medical assessment with hypnotic engagement, helping patients feel understood, regain agency and access inner resources even in the face of chronic or life-threatening conditions.
