Hypnosis in the Treatment of Insomnia, Nightmares, and Night Terrors
David G. Howsam, General Practitioner
This case study illustrates the use of hypnosis to alleviate insomnia, nightmares, night terrors, and fear of the dark in an 11-year-old boy, Tom, which occurred as a result of severe injury and hospitalisation causing separation anxiety disorder. It demonstrates the matching of hypnotic interventions with the individual needs and preferences of the client.
