We are the only hypnotherapy organisation and training school that has evidence-based research specific to our approach to therapy and whose inhouse-funded research project is listed with NICE in their research area.
We are not afraid to test the effectiveness of our therapy. We encourage a growth mindset in our clients and in our therapists.
Many hypnotherapy organisations pedal “evidence-based hypnotherapy” as a term that is either piggy-backing general research into the effectiveness of hypnosis that is not specific to their own approach to therapy, or they incorporate CBT as part of their approach and base their claims on CBT research results, again not their own specific approach or therapists.
Our therapy research was conducted by a team of QCHPA members using outcome measures that are standard within the NHS. It demonstrated our effectiveness is greater for the treatment of anxiety and depression than other talk therapies such as CBT used within the NHS (71% compared to 42%).
