Through a brief case study, the present article aims at elucidating the forming of individualized processes and the hypnotic suggestions for a young mother who had difficulties breast-feeding her child. Right after the presentation of the case, this work focuses on three axis of interpreting the suggestive processes which had been present in leading the hypnotic session: A first dealing with physical senses, a second dealing the use of metaphors involving the milk itself, and a third dealing with the forms of redefining the role of the young woman as a mother. Within these three axis, It is worth mentioning the how important it is for the hypnotic suggestions to take into account the singularity of the mother, considering her emotions, senses, and private meanings. Lastly, this work concludes by highlighting the outlook on the fact that the need for more qualitative research must acknowledge clinical practice as a research field in a way to entail subjective processes present in hypnotic relations such as trance, communication, language, symbolization, emotions, and the forming of senses.
