Although the current article only mentions it once, as explained by source 2 this is a type of hypnotherapy:

Sequent repatterning is often referred to as sequent repatterning hypnotherapy for misophonia. It was established some time ago that traditional, suggestion-based hypnosis does not provide enduring positive change in misophonia. Hypnosis does, however, provide an ideal platform from which neuropsychotherapeutic change can be achieved [...] The therapist may also choose from a range of useful hypnotic phenomena; in sound-response misophonia, for instance, auditory hallucination can be especially effective.

Comment I happened to also recently edit the hypnotherapy page. It is not clear whether there is Wikipedia-level consensus on whether hypnotherapy, and hypnosis more generally is psuedoscience or not. I know those conversations can get quite long (e.g. see the 19 pages of archives at Talk:List of topics characterized as pseudoscience), but this is just an AfD nomination and I don't intend to start that discussion here.

Merge the useable bits to Misophonia per nom and OwenX, probably to the "Management" section. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 13:55, 12 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
