Abstract

Post-disaster psychological interventions are still dominated by cognitive-verbal approaches that have not fully reached implicit traumatic experiences. Suggestion-based hypnocounseling offers an alternative with a more direct path of change. This study aims to examine the role of suggestion as a mechanism in hypnocounseling in post-disaster trauma. The method used is a scoping review, based on the Arksey and O'Malley framework, with systematic searches across several major databases. The results showed that hypnosis-based interventions with directed suggestions were associated with reduced anxiety, stress, depression, and PTSD. Suggestion serves as a mediator that facilitates simultaneous emotional and cognitive changes. This study confirms the importance of repositioning suggestions as a core mechanism. It provides a conceptual basis for developing more adaptive, concise, and context-specific interventions in post-disaster trauma management. The practical implications of this study show that hypnocounseling suggestions have the potential to be used by counselors as an applicator intervention strategy in helping post-disaster trauma recovery.
