• Visual/kinesthetic dissociation separates the feelings from the pictures so you can come to terms with both. It has been used successfully for dealing with:
  • accidents and injuries
  • phobias
  • post-traumatic stress disorders
  • traumatized war victims
  • emotional and sexual abuse
• The main steps are:
  • Gain rapport with your client and pace their experience.
  • Establish a "bail out" saftey anchor that they can use if the experience becomes too much.
  • Help them to dissociate from the picture and shift the critical submodalities that give it such power.
  • Disrupt the memory by changing the submodalities and helping them to watch the even again dissociated, so they can learn from the memory.
  • Find the right resource in that situation and bring it into the experience.
  • Future pace.
