First-time hypnotherapy clients are typically very curious about what the session may be like. I offer a 15-minute free phone consultation in advance of your session. This allows us the opportunity to determine whether we are well-suited to work together. It is as important for you to be comfortable with me and my style as it is for me to determine whether my skills and techniques are appropriate for your issues. You are welcome to read more about the techniques by clicking on ‘Techniques’ on the sidebar. Every therapist works differently and every client is unique. I will describe a "typical" session that you might experience.
When your appointment is scheduled, you will receive an email with intake and disclosure forms, as well as directions to my office. You will print these forms and bring them, completed, to your first appointment. When you arrive in the office, we will have a discussion, and you will describe the reason for your visit, relevant background information and your goals both for working with me and for that particular session.
As we begin hypnosis, you will relax in a comfortable recliner, and soft music will play in the background. I begin the induction in one of many ways depending on the circumstances. You will typically be very aware of everything that occurs that you are speaking with me and fully capable of bringing yourself out of trance or taking care of your comfort needs. However, simultaneously, you will be aware of heightened insight of thought, visions and feelings of past experiences, gain greater knowledge and deeper understanding of issues, and perhaps altered perceptions of those events.
When you sense that there are factors you feel to be negatively affecting your life, we will discuss how you want them altered. Through the use of a number of hypnotherapy and NLP, Reiki, ilahinoor and EFT tools, we will accomplish this shift to the degree that is possible. Again, you are welcome to learn more about these tools and techniques by clicking on "Techniques" on the sidebar.
A shared analysis concerning the session occurs while you are still in the alpha state so that you can benefit from your hyper acute awareness. When the session is complete, you will emerge from this state with the ability to remember all that has occurred. You are given the opportunity to relax a few moments as you orient to daily life. We then discuss any questions, comments or issues you wish to address in the future, and the session ends.
Self-Hypnosis Bonus!
You will be taught a new and dynamic form of energy hypnosis that is designed to reinforce your new decisions and create lasting change. The technique can take as little as one simple minute. Can you imagine having complete control over your own mind and taking charge of your thoughts? This technique has been growing in popularity for years because of the amazing efficiency and power.
Missed Sessions / Rescheduling
We need at least 24 hour notice for a cancellation or rescheduled appointment. We understand how busy schedules can be, but unfortunately clients making cancellations, missing appointments or rescheduling on the same day as the appointment will be charged for the time scheduled for that day. We would be unable to utilize that time to schedule in another client upon such short notice. No exceptions. This is being done to ensure that our appointment times are used appropriately for everyone involved. Many clients need to wait many days to come in. If we are given enough advance notice, then we are able to schedule our clients more efficiently.
We thank you for your understanding and we look forward to serving you!
