Question:
I have a daughter who was sexually abused by her brother when she was 6. She is 24 now and several years ago she finally remembered some of the horrible events. She is anorexic due to the abuse. She refuses to go to therapy because she doesn't want to tell her story. Any CD that can help these issues or help her to get to a therapist?

This study assessed the efficacy of hypnotherapy in treating functional dyspepsia (FD). A total of 126 patients were randomized to either a hypnotherapy condition, a supportive therapy plus placebo medication condition, or a medical treatment condition, for a total of 16 weeks of treatment.
The percentage of change in symptoms from baseline was assessed after the 16-week treatment phase (short-term) and again after 56 weeks (long-term), with the 26 hypnotherapy, 24 supportive therapy, and 29 medical treatment patients who completed all phases of the study. In addition, quality of life was also measured as a secondary outcome.
