His methods are varied. Michael unhesitatingly employs techniques from a variety of healing modalities. By combining hypnosis, the principles of gradual desensitization, archetypes and myth, with more traditional motivational tools, Dr. McGee's approach moves beyond both hypnosis and "talk therapies".
