AN EPIC LIFE

Professional Perspectives by Jeffrey K. Zeig

An Epic Life draws upon four decades of interviews with professionals who knew Erickson. The incisive perspectives are interlaced with commentary from Jeffrey Zeig to clarify and contextualize. The images of Erickson that emerge are congruent, divergent, myriad. In the end, readers gain unusual access to the man, his commitment, and his work. There is nothing simple in what is conveyed, and yet the impression it makes is coherent — and lasting.

From the fundamentals of hypnosis to advanced induction sequences, the Intensive Training Program empowers therapeutic communication. Ericksonian methods guide your client to experientially unlock the knowledge they have within and help shape them into the best version of themselves. By the end of the Program, you will fully understand how to incorporate Ericksonian hypnosis into your own therapeutic practice to help solve a wide range of issues, including dealing with trauma, depression, PTSD, anxiety, and more.

 
 
Learn how to build your clients a bridge from the land of knowing, to the land of realizing. Hypnotically informed methods are the foundation of that bridge.

Masterclasses by Jeffrey Zeig

 
 

Dr. Jeffrey Zeig will provide an online master class unlike any other. We learn by living a session of psychotherapy. The class features a live demonstration of a psychotherapy session in which Dr. Zeig will implement various strategies in dealing with common patient issues in front of the group. Understand how to prompt your client to realize hidden potentials and learn techniques that will guide you into perfecting your own style of therapy.

We will closely study the clinical work of the innovative masters who pioneered the development of psychotherapy, revitalizing their methods to meet the needs of contemporary practice. During this course, the techniques of these masters will be brought to life to make your practice more effective and powerful. Regardless of theoretical orientation, we will learn practical ways to incorporate new methods.
