Once the client is in a regressed state, the hypnotherapist is then able to conduct therapy on or within the memory. The ‘bridge’ type regressions are slightly different, and rely on using direct suggestion to generate an emotion or symptom in the client, then having the client go back to the first time they ever experienced said emotion/symptom in relation to their issue. With specific age and free-floating regression, the hypnotherapist will either use direct suggestions or metaphorical constructs (such as a ‘time machine’) in order to regress the client into their past. Regression approaches can be broken down into three different categories, specific age regression, free-floating regression, and the ‘affect bridge’ or ‘somatic bridge’. There are a couple of different ways to do this. However, first, the hypnotherapist has to regress the client.
There are a number of ways to use regression in order to create therapeutic change. Whether a client regresses or revivifies, the client benefits from being in hypnosis during this process, because as well as the benefits listed above, the client is also able to ‘lock in’ any changes made throughout the regression on a subconscious level. Whereas, a standard regression is more like daydreaming – the client can experience it as if it is happening, but whilst remaining aware of their actual surroundings, and the fact that what they’re imagining is just that, their imagination. From an experiential perspective, a true revivification during a regression is more like being in a dream – the client is there in it, and it’s happening in real time, without them necessarily realising it is a dream. a memory that is not modified by conscious ‘filtering’).Ĭlients experiencing a regression in hypnosis are much more likely to ‘revivify’ and experience the memory as if it were actually happening, rather than just experiencing it as ‘recalling a memory’. Though regression can be used with a therapy client out of hypnosis, in hypnosis the regressive state is often more easily connected to by the client, as well as being more easily recalled, more vividly experienced, and more likely to be a genuine memory (i.e. However, Freud openly admitted that he was not a good hypnotist, and as such, often reverted to using regression as a non-hypnotic talking therapy approach. As well as developing analytical therapy, Sigmund Freud was recorded as having been key in the development of regression therapy in psychiatry, as well as its use within hypnosis. Regression is a therapy modality that is most commonly associated with hypnotherapy, rather than other talking therapies. Regression hypnotherapy, sometimes known as ‘age regression’ or ‘regression to cause’ (R2C), involves taking a client, in their imagination, back to past memories of events, with the intention to modify or use the clients response to the memory in order to affect a change in their current situation.
