We chose peer-reviewed articles for inclusion, with a sample that used imagery training to address mental health issues. Results from the 2130 papers considered for inclusion in this review. After deleting duplicates, 494 abstracts failed to match our inclusion criteria. Twenty people met our inclusion criterion.
