Psychoanalytical Therapy & CBT
Psychoanalytical therapy, analysis or hypno-analysis as it is sometimes referred
to is utilized within hypnosis. This therapy is used to discover causes of psychological
problems. Hypno-analysis can be briefly summarised as the doctrine of ‘cause and
effect’ (the symptom) must have a cause. Hypno-analysis aims to reveal and thus remove
the cause, and consequently relieves the symptoms. If a person feels that there are
issues from the past, then they can be resolved. It is often found that there are
many issues, however ‘small’, and mainly pertain to internalising, negative thoughts
and feelings about themselves when younger, or misinterpreting their world around
them at that time, usually from 14 years old or younger.
Psychoanalytical therapy is provided over a short period of time, this therapy usually
takes between 2-4 sessions, one a week. This is opposed to, often frequently long
therapies, some that may continue for many months and even years, which paradoxically
holds that person back from going forward. The longer therapy continues, frequently
reminds the client, that their problem is something drastic, with nothing happening
in respect to coping or feeling better.
Cognitive behavioral therapy addresses the feelings of hopelessness that accompany
many mental health co-morbid conditions. Cognitive therapy changes the pessimistic
ideas, unrealistic expectations, and overly critical self-evaluations that create
many of the internalizations and sustain it.
Cognitive therapy helps the person recognize which life problems are critical, and
which are minor. It also helps him/her to develop positive life goals, and a more
positive self-assessment.
Problem solving therapy changes the areas of the person's life that are creating
significant stress, and contributing to their problems. This may require behavioral
therapy to develop better coping skills, or Interpersonal therapy, to assist in solving
relationship problems.
