By Assen Alladin (Author), 1st Edition, English Language, Published by Wiley-Blackwell on October 20, 2015. ISBN-13: 978-1118509913.

This book presents a systematic integrative approach, Cognitive Hypnotherapy (CH), for the psychological treatment of anxiety disorders. It illustrates how simple techniques can be employed to create an effective therapeutic context that enhances Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). The text offers detailed and comprehensive coverage, including specific protocols for each anxiety disorder covered and a short case study per treatment chapter to demonstrate the approach in action.

As anxiety disorders involve the interaction between conscious and unconscious processes, hypnotherapeutic and mindfulness techniques can be particularly effective. This work builds on the author’s research and experience, expanding upon his earlier significant contributions in this area—most notably Cognitive Hypnotherapy: An Integrated Approach to the Treatment of Emotional Disorders (Wiley, 2008).
