From the influence of traumas to therapeutic letting go: the contribution of hypnosis and EMDR
Résumé
The development of new psychotherapies such as EMDR has led to numerous fresh approaches to both the treatment of traumas and also to our understanding of underlying psychopathology. A unified view appears to be slowly emerging in an attempt to corroborate clinical practice with neurobiological data. Accordingly, this article will seek to demonstrate links between different psychotherapies by attempting to highlight what appears to be an invariant among these approaches, namely "letting go". This concept refers to a psychophysical dynamic that combines psychological dissociation and re-association, as well as the body's vagotonic mechanisms. Following an explanation of this process, it will be demonstrated here how letting go can manifest itself physiologically and how it is significant in the study of traumas.
