All Yapko’s books are all worth a read. Although I found “Breaking the patterns of depression” less accesable which is a shame as it is a self help book and I feel that someone in deep depression might have problems getting to grips with it. Where Yapko gives examples of actual suggestions or case studies his personal style is Ericksonian without going down the NLP route.<br/><br/>If you do treat depressed clients who live with their families consider recommending “Hand Me Down Blues How To Stop Depression From Spreading in Families” also by Yapko.

Yapko, Ph.D.</i> Depression has become epidemic in the western world. Hypnosis is especially suited to the treatment of depression. I don’t know why this short book is not regarded as one of the most important works of our era.<br/><br/>Second, 'Handbook of Hypnotic Suggestions and Metaphors' <i>Edited By D. Corydon Hammond, Ph.D.</i> This is the book I keep dipping into, so many ideas from so many contributers from different backgrounds. I have two book suggestions.
