Ericksonian Practitioner

Milton Erickson

Milton Erickson was the foremost practitioner of Hypnotherapy in the USA and one of the original therapeutic wizards modelled in the 70’s by the co-founder’s of NLP, Richard Bandler and John Grinder. Erickson’s approach emphasised:

• meeting the client at their model - He considered each person unique and responded to the whole person and their whole ‘world’.
• creating a theory for each person - He considered every person to be complete with the necessary resources, but as yet not organised to accomplish the change themselves.
• vehicles of influence - He considered his words, intonations, use of language and body movements, as vehicles of influence. He tailored them to each individual, utilising anecdotes and metaphors, to assist them to make the desired changes.
• interventions - Using his incredible ability to see and hear the client’s many levels of communication, he identified the patterns and change processes most enhancing for the client.

Our unique training design

Designed as a whole approach integrating the traditional components with many new patterns now available. We use Ericksonian patterns to organise and teach Ericksonian patterns.

Benefit from:

• experiencing ‘altered states’ and deep trance phenomena in order to know and understand the different trance states and their benefits
• utilising different altered states for improved performance in any context, e.g. business, sport
• advanced conversational language patterns, e.g. Directing Language for effective change
• strategies for precise and easy construction of anecdotes and metaphors and how best to utilise these within your profession
• a multi-levelled communication model for creating individualised interventions
• change patterns - e.g, Universals, ‘self image’ work, Life Perspective patterns, and many more.

You will learn to use these with understanding and a clarity of purpose that leads to lasting and generative change.
