Hipnosis y Terapias Cognitivas

Abstract

Hypnosis and cognitive therapies may appear as two distant approaches for psychological practice. Howevwr, both retain among their aims the reorganization of the  clients’ cognitive structures. These common goals make them compatible and allow new intervention pathways for cognitive therapists. Hypnosis stimulates clients to do by themselves a process of cognitive restructuring without monitoring and controlling it. Thus, cognitive structures which are not available through thinking and language can be modified without a cognitive analysis.
