  • Title: The Most Beautiful Man: An Integration of Hypnosis and Biofeedback for Depression and Dissociation.
    Author: Moss D.
    Journal: Am J Clin Hypn; 2019 Apr; 61(4):322-334. PubMed ID: 31017547.
    Abstract:
    Hypnosis and biofeedback techniques are evidence-based psychophysiological therapies that can be applied with a wide variety of medical and mental health disorders. Research shows efficacy for anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTDS), chronic pain, hypertension, fibromyalgia, and a host of other disorders. Hypnosis and biofeedback can also augment the effectiveness of psychotherapy. The author utilizes the case narrative of a 36-year-old woman, presenting with postpartum depression and dissociative features, to illustrate the integration of biofeedback training, physiological monitoring, self-hypnosis, hypnotic age regression, and affective journaling into dynamic psychotherapy. The hypnotic techniques and the affective journaling assisted in the retrieval of critical traumatic events during the patient's adolescence, and a combination of breath training, self-hypnosis, and biofeedback aided the patient in self-calming.
