Help clients come to terms with their child's mental health problems with the Caring for a Mentally Ill Child Hypnosis Script

Caring for a child with mental illness can take a heavy emotional toll. Many parents go through periods of self-blame or guilt, or experience feelings of isolation or loneliness.

The Caring for a Mentally Ill Child Hypnosis Script from The Script Collection was put together to help parents find strategies to look after their own psychological health as they support their mentally ill child.

The pre-talk reassures clients that their child's psychological distress is not their fault, and encourages them to think about strategies to support their child. It emphasizes the importance of accepting the reality of the situation and letting go of unhealthy attitudes in order to better understand and deal with the challenges of caring for a mentally ill child.

An extended induction uses embedded commands to help clients focus on slowing their breath and allowing every part of their body to begin to relax. Thoughts are likened to leaves floating along a stream as the client is encouraged to simply allow those thoughts to drift away naturally without any effort. Pleasant memories are evoked to further deepen the sense of relaxation and wellbeing.

The trancework encourages the client to access a network of support and absorb the clarity, strength, and wisdom it brings. Age regression gives the client the opportunity to send messages of support and understanding to their younger self, and in so doing access a place of greater clarity and calm. Finally, a sense of hope is instilled through a flowing description of how the challenge of mental illness can ultimately be overcome.
