Description

Ego State Therapy (EST) is an approach that recognizes the multiplicity within us all. One does not have to be a therapeutic genius because the EST approach realizes the ‘genius’ is within our clients. Our clients have all they need to resolve conflicts, manage their emotions, and to move from surviving to thriving. They just need you to help them access their internal resources and teach them how to utilize them for optimal functioning. EST is an effective, relational, well-paced approach that changes symptoms into solutions and one that is necessary when working with trauma and dissociative disorders. EST is often used in conjunction with clinical hypnosis. However, one can still master the art of being hypnotic and apply the useful EST principles to therapeutic treatment without formal hypnosis training.
