clinical research
Clinical Research confirms what we already knew:
Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy works!
Let me explain…
“QCH may offer a brief effective treatment for clients with clinically significant levels of anxiety and/or depression, widening client choice.”
Mental Health Review Journal September 2015
An Evidence-Based Approach
Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy (QCH) launched a unique research project in 2011.
Using a team of QCH therapists, clients with anxiety and depression were assessed using the same outcome measures currently used to assess the effectiveness of talking therapies within the NHS.
The pilot study was published in the Mental Health Review Journal in 2015. It recorded that, using 118 cases measuring the effectiveness of Quest Cognitive Hypnotherapy for the treatment of depression and anxiety, 71% considered themselves recovered after an average of 4 sessions.
This compared to an average of 42% for other approaches using the same measures (like CBT).
To our knowledge, this is the only hypnotherapy approach to have been validated in this way.
