Milton H. Erickson, MD, was an American psychiatrist.

He specialized in medical hypnosis and family therapy.

He was founding president of the American Society for Clinical Hypnosis.

He was noted for his approach to the unconscious mind.

This approach viewed the unconscious as creative and solution-generating.

Dr. Erickson was plagued with enormous physical handicaps for most of his life.

At age 17, he contracted polio.

He was so severely paralyzed that doctors believed he would die.

While recovering in bed, he became aware of nonverbal communication.

This included body language and tone of voice.

He also noticed how nonverbal expressions contradicted verbal ones.

By concentrating on body memories, he began to regain control of his body.

He slowly regained the ability to speak and use his arms again.

His doctor recommended exercising his upper body only.

Milton Erickson planned a 1,000 miles canoe trip.

The goal was to build strength to attend college.

The Ericksonian approach departs from traditional hypnosis.

It emphasizes an interactive therapeutic relationship.

It engages the inner resources of the subject.

Dr. Erickson revolutionized the practice of hypnotherapy.

He coalesced original concepts and communication patterns into the field.

Although known as the world’s leading hypnotherapist, he used formal hypnosis in only one-fifth of his cases.

Dr. Erickson effected a fundamental shift in modern psychotherapy.

Many elements of the Ericksonian perspective are now incorporated into mainstream practice.
