EP032 Aphantasia with Dr Paulina Trevena
Manage episode 449299932 series 3427353
Dr Paulina Trevena is a hypnotherapist and a researcher, with 18 years’ experience in academic research. Paulina, who is neurodivergent with aphantasia and ADHD, specialises in supporting people with these conditions. During her own hypnosis training, she realised having aphantasia was a barrier to experiencing hypnosis – and started a research project into aphantasia and hypnosis. Her mission is to raise awareness of aphantasia and promote best practice in working with clients who have limited or no mental imagery. Paulina runs a personal development company called No Woo Woo!
These are just some of the questions we covered in a thought-provoking conversation with Dr Paulina Trevena:
How does having aphantasia impact experiences of hypnosis and meditation?
And why does this matter for hypnotherapists?
How does it impact memory?
And what about (night) dreams?
What are the misconceptions within the hypnosis world around aphantasia?
How can we approach working with aphantasic clients?
Is there a cure for aphantasia?
And what about the role of trauma in all of this???
A really deep dive into all things aphantasia!
She'll be covering a lot of these topics during her upcoming talk at the UK Hypnosis Convention!
Renaissance Hotel, London, her talk's on SATURDAY 15th @11.15 am.
