Hypnosis and the treatment of posttraumatic conditions: An evidence-based approach

Lynn, Steven Jay and Cardeña, Etzel LU orcid (2007) In International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Hypnosis 55(2). p.167-188
Abstract
This article reviews the evidence for the use of hypnosis in the treatment of posttraumatic conditions including posttraumatic stress disorder and acute stress disorder. The review focuses on empirically supported principles and practices and suggests that hypnosis can be a useful adjunctive procedure in the treatment of posttraumatic conditions. Cognitive-behavioral and exposure-based interventions, which have the greatest empirical support, are highlighted, and an illustrative case study is presented.
