Cognitive hypnotherapy for depression: an empirical investigation
Assen Alladin 1, Alisha Alibhai
Abstract
To investigate the effectiveness of cognitive hypnotherapy (CH), hypnosis combined with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), on depression,
84 depressives were randomly assigned to 16 weeks of treatment of either CH or CBT alone. At the end of treatment, patients from both groups significantly improved compared to baseline scores. However, the CH group produced significantly larger changes in Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory, and Beck Hopelessness Scale.
Effect size calculations showed that the CH group produced 6%, 5%, and 8% greater reduction in depression, anxiety, and hopelessness, respectively, over and above the CBT group.
The effect size was maintained at 6-month and 12-month follow-ups. This study represents the first controlled comparison of hypnotherapy with a well-established psychotherapy for depression, meeting the APA criteria for a "probably efficacious" treatment for depression.

The thoughts you have can be helpful - and that is going to give you better outcomes
The thoughts you create could be unhelpful, and knowing how to manage and work through or dismiss unhelpful thoughts can allow you to have better outcomes …
Unchallenged unhelpful thoughts will take up more space than they deserve- so having a way to challenge, reframe and manage unhelpful thoughts is important to having the best outcomes…
You deserve to know how to manage and choose what you think about and how you think about things…
Knowing how to do this, is a skill you can learn, and j on e that can serve you best in all areas of your life..
Know that a thought can’t exist without you thinking it… and that you can exist without listening to unhelpful thoughts!!
Skills I am happy to help you learn, strategies that can help you live a life you want !
You are what you are and where you are because of what’s gone into your mind. You can change what you are and where you are by changing what goes into your mind.
