This study investigates the effectiveness of different hypnotherapy approaches in aiding recovery from sexual trauma, focusing on anxiety reduction, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptom management, and improvements in intimate relationship quality. A network meta-analysis (NMA) was conducted to compare the relative efficacy of traditional hypnosis, cognitive-behavioral hypnosis, and self-hypnosis. Results indicate that cognitive-behavioral hypnosis provides the greatest benefit in reducing PTSD symptoms, while traditional hypnosis is most effective in alleviating anxiety and enhancing intimate relationship quality.
