ABOUT GIL BOYNE

Imagine the fulfillment, the self-worth and success that came out of having studied with such innovators as Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls, Dave Elman and other great creative minds. Such an innovator is among us now: Gil Boyne's teachings convey the essential ingredients of his solution to the most fundamental problem facing us all, i.e., how to overcome our client's feelings of helplessness in specific situations and train them to develop coping skills.

Boyne does this by leading the client to recognize their inner creative intelligence and to define it as the evidence of their " divine nature. " He teaches his clients to alter their perception and motivates them to use their inner capabilities to cope creatively with the realistic demands of their lives. The central theme of his work, is that people can be taught to recognize their innate potential. He has concluded that no single theory can explain or describe the complexity of individual functioning.

He has a great awareness of the meanings and implications of words and the flexibility of language. Each movement, each word, each inflection of a person is observed and noted on the basis of his acquired understandings. He teaches about an "inner grace" that we can connect with. He begins with the premise that don't have to "get rid of" anything! Instead, we transform and add so that a whole person is created.

Hypnotherapy is not just techniques that can be taught. To be an effective Hypnotherapist, a person has to have instinct for it and a passion for helping others. Boyne states, "Hypnotherapy is the beginning of an experience that can generate results that seem magical because of its brevity and conciseness. It is the "people's choice" because it is free of psychiatric jargon and labels. He explicitly states that no scientific definition or explanation for the "mysteries and miracles" of hypnotherapy exists, despite the many different theories espoused by the many experts."
