Hypnotherapy Live - Michele Guzy/Linda - Self Critical - Session 2 of 6
Presented By: Michele Guzy
Hypnotherapist: Michele Guzy, CHt
Client: Linda - Session 2 of 6
Presenting Issues: Dealing with Inner Critical Voices
Description: Linda's inner voice is still there, but she thinks it may have been diminished. She hasn't been able to work for six or seven months. Linda's trying to make some money by drawing caricatures and selling her art. She'd even be willing to be a maid. She's afraid because she's not young anymore, and there are no interviews to be had. She lives with her daughter, and can't pay her half of the rent. If she had money, she claims she'd spread it around. Michele uses the analogy of the oxygen mask on an airplane, how she has to put the oxygen mask on herself first, and she has to take care of herself first. Linda had to be by herself a lot when she was a child. She was comfortable talking to wild animals in the woods. She feels people can be horrible creatures, wicked, vicious, hostile. With an animal, you know where you stand. She also likes bugs. She was married for 17 years to a man who saw her situation and brought her into a real family. Sometimes it was overwhelming, even though she felt loved. Her husband passed away a few years ago. She was betrayed in a relation since then. She doesn't know if she can trust again.
Techniques Used: Michele asks very specific questions about what Linda is doing to get a job, where she would move to, and what, specifically, she would do. When Linda speaks in broad terms, Michele narrows her down. She reminds Linda of the "stop" trigger and tells her to use it to stop saying "I don't know." Michele uses Eye Fascination with Finger Spread, Physical Anchor, Special Place with animals and bugs, Imagery with a tiger to help her through difficult times.
