Abstract
The Australian Society of Hypnosis (ASH) is a not-for-profit organization open to all registered health professionals regulated by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) as well as counsellors, speech pathologists, and social workers registered with one of their appropriate professional associations.Candidates for full membership with ASH must meet various criteria.One criterion involves demonstrating the ability to appropriately apply hypnosis in their specific professional context.Often this proficiency in hypnotic application is demonstrated via the submission of case studies or reports.This special issue presents a number of case studies that exemplify the use of applied hypnosis in various professional contexts in Australia.Most of the case studies presented were submitted by the authors to ASH in support of their membership applications.However, a few case studies have been provided by current members of ASH and/or other professionals familiar with hypnotic applications.Thus, some of the case studies presented are offered by professionals highly experienced in hypnosis while others are offered by professionals relatively new to the application of hypnosis in their professional area.Regardless, the variety of cases presented represents the diversity of how hypnosis is being applied across many contexts and addressing many different therapeutic areas in Australia.
