Evaluating the Effectiveness of Tion-Emo Therapy and Technique (TET)

Overview

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the new therapy Cion-Emo therapy (TET) and to see if this technique is effective for treating depression and anxiety. Does TET lower anxiety and depression as participants learn and use this therapy? Researchers will compare TET with a control group to see if TET works in treating depression and anxiety. There was a pre-test and a post-test for both groups, experimental and control, and questionnaires to evaluate the effectiveness of TET. There was also a question to evaluate the hypothesis of the existence of nucleon emotion. The experimental group received TET therapy and techniques on an average of 10 to 12 one-hour sessions per week. The control group visited the clinic three times: in the first week all participants were evaluated to ascertain whether they were suffering from anxiety and depression; the second time was for the pre-test; and the third time was for the post-test.

The TION-EMO theory (TET) was developed in Finland approximately four decades ago with positive results in the public and private sectors. Positive results were also seen in Ecuador. The psychological system is divided into three regions: the first is a self-survival region to regulate all emotions connected with survival. For example, when a person wants to avoid getting contaminated with COVID-19, the survival region is activated in to avoid contracting the disease. Another clear example occurs when people see a tiger- the first thing they want to do is escape. This example of survival mechanism is good; however, the bad effect is that in many cases the self-survival emotions remain long after the incident has occurred, causing a negative effect on health. Depression and anxiety are mostly affected by the social region- the area connected with humans' relations with the people they meet. Finally, people have the intellectual region. The author discovered that when people imagine themselves feeling their own body, they automatically make direct contact with the self-survival region. In the case of self-survival anxiety, people can imagine the object which is causing anxiety. Lately, investigators have noticed that people do not need this self-survival object because it does not have any responsibility. TET therapy addresses this self-survival object through supervised guidance by trained therapists. All this guidance has a very special effect on people's moods. In the case of anxieties and depressions caused by the social region, people imagine the self-object, that is, the individual plus the social object that is causing the anxiety or depression plus the supporting words, which can only be understandable phrases agreed upon by the patient and taught by the therapist. This process takes three to four sessions to understand the logic of the therapy. Several authors consider human objects to be important in the development of emotions, as well as their cognitive components in the comparison of the two. The research will focus on demonstrating that people who use the CION-EMO technique can regulate the symptoms of anxiety and depression caused by conflict and stress. This research is highly desirable.
