Meet Tom Silver
Tom is a clinically trained and certified Hypnotist, and past member of the American Counseling Association, American Hypnosis Association and the National Guild of Hypnotists (NGH).
From years of knowledge gained from his lucrative Southern California hypnotherapy practice, coupled with his passion for researching the history and development of hypnosis, Tom founded The United States Board of Clinical Hypnosis (USBCH)®and The Tom Silver Institute of Hypnosis.
As founder and creator of the Tom Silver Institute of Hypnosis, Tom has dedicated his life to advancing the field of hypnosis through education and the development and implementation of his own scientifically verifiable hypnotic induction methods and ground-breaking hypnotherapy techniques.
In what he has termed “EEG Scientific Hypnotism”, Tom discovered that, by using an electroencephalogram (EEG) during a hypnosis session, he could visually confirm the very moments when his “subject” reached the “theta” and “delta” states of brainwave activity. These are the brainwave frequency states where the “subject” proves to be the most susceptible to hypnotic suggestion and achieves the most effective results from applied hypnotherapy.
ERT
As a pioneer in hypnosis research and methodology, Tom is the creator of Emotion Replacement Therapy® (ERT), and he continues to advance the development and teaching of EEG Scientific Hypnotism, touring the world conducting seminars, lectures, and live demonstrations of his latest scientifically verifiable hypnosis techniques.
For many years Tom has successfully trained thousands of students of hypnotism and other therapists, and is currently teaching his advanced Scientific Hypnotherapy courses in America, England, Australia, Holland, China and around the world.
As a result, he has become established as a world-leading expert in the education and instruction of these exciting and effective new methods and techniques to the next generation of aspiring Scientific Hypnosis professionals.
