Abstract:

The main purpose to write this article is to show the importance and the role of imagery in Psychotherapy and Hypnotherapy practice.Different therapeutic approaches and theories that have been mentioned and the way imagery in the past and at present has served the purpose in therapeutic settings explored. The way in which imagery works and does the magic in therapy explained and also examples were given to make this article more explanatory.Since the Unconscious mind can not differentiate the real from unreal and accepts everything as real,the imagery can help our patient to change negative thoughts to positive thoughts and then create positive feelings and then positive bodily functions. An image or series of images may also be a symbol, having both meaning which can be learned from, and have power to transfrom energies in the psyche, thereby offering the potential for change on emotional, mental, and behavioural levels.
