What People are Saying About This
The external mysteries of life and creativity in health and illness together with the most modern methods of exploring them are well illustrated in this admirable volume by Maggie Phillips." ---- Ernest Rossi, author of The Psychobiology of Gene Expression (forthcoming from W.W. Norton)
"Healing therapies are in a time of unprecedented change as the frontiers of neuroscience, energy medicine, and consciousness expand. Finding the Energy to Heal is a brilliant clinical guide to the best new therapeutic techniques that enable us to change, to grow, and to take advantage of the full potential of our bodies and minds. No therapist, or person interested in healing, can afford to be without this practical, compassionate and stunningly useful guide." ----Joan Borysenko, Ph.D Author of Minding the Body, Mending the Mind
"Maggie Phillips is a highly accomplished psychologist and psychotherapist. In Finding the Energy to Heal, she expertly integrates the best of traditional practice with energetic approaches to emotional and physical healing. She also offers us useful strategies for when to choose and how to combine hypnosis, EMDR, ego-state therapy, somatic therapies, imagery, and TFT. An evolved perspective on energy psychology, this book is required reading for all therapists who take their craft seriously." ----Fred P. Gallo, Ph.D. Author of Energy Diagnostic and Treatment Methods
"In the last decade there has been a flurry of new power and energy therapies. Maggie Phillips leads the reader through this confusing maze with a rare combination of openness and critical analysis. Healer of body and soul, she also examines the tradition of body-oriented approaches in a way that redefines the therapeutic landscape. Clear case presentations and conceptual understandings will reward those who have little knowledge of energetic healing as well as those who are highly experienced. Readers at any level will benefit from her approach." ---- Peter A. Levine, Ph.D. Author of Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma
