Long known as the world's leading medical hypnotist, Milton H. Erikson developed a strategic approach - for individuals, couples and families - that uses hypnotic-therapy skills in observing and motivating people. His ideas and procedures have been widely used to sharpen the techniques of therapists of many different schools. Jay Haley provides a look at Dr. Erickson's theories in practice, through description and excerpts from Erickson's case studies.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to Erickson, 19 Aug 1999
By A Customer
"Uncommon Therapy" is probably the best introduction to Erickson's work and concepts. It presents a broad, yet useful, overview of Erickson's operating premises and how they are implemented in his communication techniques. This title doesn't delve into the excruciating technical details of his methods as some of the more esoteric titles do. A good follow up populist title to this would be "My Voice Will Go With You", which also doesn't require one to be a communication technician to come away with a world full of practical ideas.

Milton Erickson's ideas can change the way you think, the way you perceive your world and the way you communicate with that world. "Uncommon Therapy" is one of the ten books that have most influenced my perceptions.

5.0 out of 5 stars Erickson in detail, 15 April 2005
By M. Richardson "The Catalyst" (Bicester, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ignore the first review - the person has clearly NOT read/or understood the real depth of Ericksonian therapy. Erickson was a rare, true expert on human behaviour, and this book is an excellent series of case studies detailed and analysed by a third party, but nicely broken down into some of the key development phases that we go through in our lives. It acknowledges that our needs and behaviour change throughout life, and I recommend this book to any fellow hypnotherapist or pychologist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!! Erickson was a genius., 9 Aug 1998
By A Customer
This book about Erickson's approaches to client therapy is great. The book contains a number of 'short stories' that reveal his incredibly unique, insightful and highly effective ability at approaching client issues in a way that will absolutely generate a positive change in that individual. A MUST READ for anyone who wants to witness how communication, subtle or not, can impact a person without their even knowing it!
