The need for more uncertainty in therapy

20th January, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

I was disturbed recently by a long conversation with a friend who had recently completed his qualification in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I hadn’t been aware of how driven they had become by their interpretation of evidence-based practice. On the face of it, it seems a good idea, but from his reports it seems that the […]

Wilma joins Quest!

3rd January, 2011 by Trevor Silvester

At Quest we’re always keen to develop talent, and we think we’ve discovered a young lady who is going to bring fresh energy to our hospitality department. With the sad loss of our Hospitality Director, Barney, in November 2010, we’ve clearly been missing something in the area of student interface – mainly a cold nose […]

Getting better – in your own words

8th September, 2010 by Trevor Silvester

Apparently up to about 80% of our thoughts seems to be verbal rather than visual or emotional – at least according to recent research at the University of Nevada. This finding emerges from a field of study that’s looking at the power words have to influence our perceptions – i.e. the way we see the […]

A new idea for working with cancer

6th September, 2010 by Trevor Silvester

Experiments have shown that a great deal of the sense we have of ourselves, of the feeling of the kind of person we are, is gained from our interpretation of our surroundings. If we continually find ourselves in a negative environment we tend to become the kind of person you find in such a place […]

The Wee Beastie

18th August, 2010 by Trevor Silvester

Trevor has been working with the Times columnist Katie Pearson. In this article, published on Tuesday the 18th August 2010, Katie talks about how Cognitive Hypnotherapy is helping her with cancer. Isn’t it a shame that doctor’s don’t go on to investigate these positive ‘abnormalities’?

The best book on therapy ever written

8th July, 2010 by Trevor Silvester

is how I’d like this book to be described, and I’m sure that’s how many authors in the field feel when they publish. This has been four years in the writing and it’s an absorbing, frustrating, enlightening and sometimes overwhelming experience, so it’s normal that you want it to be well received. The time to […]

Helping your relationship

9th February, 2010 by Trevor Silvester

Trevor was approached to give advice to three couples experiencing challenges in their relationships. Always a tricky thing to do at a distance, relationship therapy with a trained therapist can often make a huge difference. Often it’s not a lack of love causing the issue, just each having a lack of understanding of the mind […]

Be Unreasonable to win

26th January, 2010 by Trevor Silvester

Books by Trevor Silvester

Cognitive Hypnotherapy: What's that about and how can I use it? - Two simple questions for change
This book defines an exciting new approach to the field of therapy and counselling. Cognitive Hypnotherapy is a model that can be used to create a unique treatment plan for each client, using techniques drawn from any school of thought, integrated into a single model that uses the clients own mind to solve their own problems.


Wordweaving: The Science of Suggestion - A Comprehensive Guide to Creating Hypnotic Language
In this new approach to the use of hypnotic suggestion, we aim to free you from the constraints of scripts and enable you to use your creative skill to weave subtle spells that empower your clients by changing their model of reality.


The Question is the Answer: Focusing on Solutions with Cognitive Hypnotherapy (Wordweaving 2)
This book builds on the model introduced in Wordweaving, and shows you how to ask the questions that will provide you with the information you need to create hypnotic language patterns specifically for each client.


Lovebirds: How to Live with the One You Love
One of the biggest mistakes we make is to treat other people as if they are just like us. I've been helping couples improve their lives together for over 20 years, and one thing is clear to me: most couples don't flounder through lack of love, but through a lack of understanding. Lovebirds will teach you how to live with the one you love.
