Interactive imagery can help patients restore their sense of control when their coping abilities are both most needed and most challenged.

For a long time now, we have known that this principle lies at the basis of Erickson’s amazing ability to facilitate the natural self-healing, growth and evolution processes that every patient possesses inside.
