COGNITIVE THERAPY AND HYPNOTHERAPY WORK BEST FOR LONG TERM RESULTS
For too long the public has been fed "miraculous results" of hypnotherapy, NLP and past life regression therapy by therapists determined to indulge in mysticism. This child like and irrational thinking is the essence of many problems.
After 14 years clinical practice, I have found that hypnotherapy allied to Cognitive Therapy (the most trialled therapy in the world that consistently yields good results) brings longer term peace of mind to the client, rather than a short term "fix". CBT quickly and effectivley highlights the conscious thoughts the person is telling their unconscious mind or memory and it is these conscious thoughts that lead to illness or ineffective behaviour. CBT then works to create more effective rational thoughts. "Your unconscious won't cure a damned thing, you cure the unconscious thoughts and feelings by making them conscious". Dr Albert Ellis originator of CBT/REBT.
You can feed a person for the day or teach them how to hunt for the rest of their lives.
"The public remains largely unaware of the research supporting the efficacy of CT...but numerous studies show Cognitive Therapy is as effective as medication in treating depression, and often better than drugs for conditions like anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder" Washington Post Sept 3rd 2002...at 15 months CT was superior to both imipramine and relaxation" (Shear et al (1994).
6 April 2005 Study: Cognitive Therapy as effective as drugs in treating depression. In a study of 240 patients, researchers found that Cognitive Therapy, a type of treatment that teaches patients to think more realistically, worked as well as a popular anti-depressant for moderate to severe depression...if people quit taking Paxil (Paroxitine) after 4 months, their relapse rate was twice that of therapy patients..."it establishes, I think, once and for all that Cognitive Therapy does as well as pharmacotherapy, and what's even more important is that it has a much lower relapse rate," Professor Aaron Beck, Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and Director of the Center of The Cognitive Therapy in Philadelphia
