“Dr. McNeilly's, Learning Hypnosis, is both enjoyable and wise. He covers topics from designing a hypnotic session, determining what is missing and applying the logic of treatment to connect what is missing to the problem and he illustrates his approach with problems of anxiety, pain, habits, children, trauma and more. This book will speak to many who need a look at the big picture of how to use hypnosis in therapy.”

Congratulations, Rob. I learned hypnosis initially from Michael Yapko and now from you. I feel blessed twice. I am eager to obtain a copy of your book. You did not mention how to purchase a copy. Rosalind Monahan, Ph.D., LCSW
