The E2R (Emotion, regression, repair) method: A case study of this new pragmatic hypnotherapy technique.

The E2R (Emotion, Regression, Repair) method is a pragmatic and innovative technique for treating psychological complaints. It is the result of the professional experience of two caregivers who have been training medical and paramedical colleagues since 2016 in this method. There is always an Emotion in the symptom that a patient presents. During the trance, the hypnotherapist uses it as a thread for age Regressions, often up to 3 years old. The patient can then identify a situation that triggered an identical experience. They self-reorganizes their emotional experience according to their needs, accompanied step by step by the therapist who follows the protocol of the repair loop. This new emotional reality experienced in trance replaces the factual reality of the previous trauma and reduces or even eliminates the present complaint through an adapted Repair. The E2R method works without taking a prior hypnotizability test. The need for change and the desire to engage in hypnotherapy are the only predispositions required, regardless of the complaint. A case study of a patient with chronic severe insomnia who received four sessions of hypnotherapy using the E2R protocol illustrates this approach and its benefits.
