The aim of review is to explore the research directions and applications of hypnotherapy in the treatment of anxiety and depressive disorders. Material and Methods: by keywords “Hypnotherapy”, “Depression”, “Anxiety Disorders” search in PubMed, e-library and other bases carried on. 10 articles are found on inclusion criteria. To study this aspect, we analyzed scientific publications. Conclusion: according to the results of this review it was found that the use of this method allows to master independent skills of anxiety management, to strengthen relaxation capabilities, to reduce cognitive overactivity and sympathetic arousal, as well as to increase motivation to treatment and improve compliance. Within hypnotherapy, various types of suggestion can be effective for many medical and psychological conditions such as various pain conditions, depression and anxiety, and sleep disorders. The study of hypnotherapeutic methods in the treatment of anxiety and depressive disorders seems to be a promising area for research of therapy targets depending of clinical features of disorders. © Старунская Д.А., 2025
