This chapter discusses how a clinical hypnotherapist treated a patient with Non-Epileptic Seizures. Upon carrying out a detailed fact finding procedure focusing on the patient’s medical and personal background, it became apparent that she had experienced a very traumatic, stressful event in the last few years, which was caused by a medical scare. This resulted in her “inner child” being awoken, who had also had a traumatic experience. Her unconscious mind only knew how to express stress or anxiety in a way that resulted in the body kicking, shaking, and having a panic attack as per non-epileptic attack disorder. Through therapy, the hypnotherapist assisted in connecting and building the bond between the inner child and conscious mind to gain the trust and reassurance that the inner child would be looked after, safe, and loved. The hypnotherapist then focused on training the patient to communicate with her unconscious mind and learn how to control when the seizures could happen, and empowered her to control the seizures. After undergoing an eclectic mix of therapies, the patient is now free from non-epileptic attack disorder and engaging in high-intensity sports. |
