Abstract
Failures in hypnotherapy include failures in the hypnotic experience as well as in the process or outcome of therapy. A review of the literature suggests that failures are likely to result from therapeutic variables such as techniques, strategies or the therapist's reactions that are inappropriate for a particular patient at a particular time and may be prevented by a better understanding of the implications for these therapeutic variables.Keywords
