Useful for Coaches as well as therapists,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wordweaving: Question is the Answer v. 2 (Paperback)
As an executive coach, I strongly believe in the power of asking crucial questions to help clients change. The same is true in therapy. In this book Trevor Silvester provides a useful framework for formulating the initial questions that help the client to get to grips with their problem, and also help them to clarify the solution they want to achieve. The book has a fairly strong NLP focus and is more practically based than the first Wordweaving title. This initial core aim of the book is achieved fairly efficiently and the book then begins to feel a bit "padded" as it introduces interesting but slightly peripheral topics. For example there is a 40 page chapter on thinking lucky. This is interesting, but the reader is probably best advised to go to Richard Wiseman's original book "The Luck Factor" for this.Nonetheless, this is a useful book for structuring coaching or therapy sessions. I would recommend it in conjunction with "Gold Counselling" by Georges Philips and Lyn Buncher; and RESOLVE by Richard Bolstad; both of which will contribute to your structuring of client sessions.

Wordweaving - a recipe for successful therapy and business.,
This review is from: Wordweaving: Question is the Answer v. 2 (Paperback)
This book is very useful for therapist of all levels as Wordweaving is contributing to expanding the boundaries of hypnotherapy as a powerful therapeutic tool. Updating you skill set with these processes adds strength and flexibility to your therapy choices when faced with that `difficult client' case.The book demonstrates Wordweaving using a 4 step process based around an imaginary client session. The author clearly explains the underlying ideas that are being put forward within the therapy session and supplements these explanations with 6 very good appendices. Step 1 covers in detail how to identify the client's problem using three simple yet powerful questions It then uses excellent NLP techniques and examples to demonstrate how to proceed and tie the results into a clearly defined outcome thus drawing your client in and focusing them on the healing process. Also included in this part of the book is a process that the author named after the eminent therapist Gil Boyne appropriately called the Boynian pattern - another useful insight to what really works in therapy. How many therapists anticipating the client's departure and a chance for a break waste the last few minutes of the session? The author clearly explains how important it is to turn this time to increasing the client's chances of therapy success and offers good advice on how to mine that rich vein in those closing moments. Steps 2 builds on everything previously covered with your client. Here the focus is on how to create and deliver the Wordweaving patterns that will enable your client to achieve their therapy outcomes. This is backed up by more top quality examples in the relevant appendix. Is your client improving? Step 3 clearly lays out the process to check whether your client perceives themselves as improving and then Step 4 ties this all together by enhancing successes achieved in all the previous steps. The author then tops this by offering suggestions on how to help your clients maintain their changes and translate them into health and well being. The chapter on thinking yourself lucky is very appropriate here. This book is definitely a refreshing and powerful guide to enable the therapist to provide a framework for the client to actively participate in the process of healing themselves. In conclusion, the question really is "do you now choose to add a flexible, innovative and proven recipe for success which expands your knowledge, helps you help your clients and thus offers potential to enhance your business?"

A remarkable framework for hypnotherapists,
By Mr Jamie P Knott (Tonbridge, Kent) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wordweaving: Question is the Answer v. 2 (Paperback)
This book captures the key ingredients involved in developing a therapeutic framework for establishing the specific unconscious nature of the clients problem, using the clients map of the world...therein also lies the solution. The author blends NLP and cognitive hypnotherapy techniques into a well-explained, cohesive follow-up to Wordweaving 1.
