FAQS

What is Hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a state of focused concentration combined with therapeutic instructions. In everyday life, we enter this state without even realizing it—whenever our attention is captured, and instructions are given, we undergo a form of hypnotism, often without awareness.

For instance, have you ever lost track of time on social media or made an unplanned purchase due to an advertisement? It’s a common experience. This state, akin to becoming absorbed in a book or losing awareness while driving, is what we’ll harness in hypnotherapy.

Through this focused state, we’ll work to help you replace previous negative programming with positive alternatives, addressing issues like anxiety, fear, insomnia, and much more.

What Happens in a Hypnotherapy Session?

In a hypnotherapy session, you’ll typically find yourself seated comfortably in a chair or lying on a couch with your eyes closed. I will guide you into a state of profound relaxation and heightened focus, akin to a tranquil trance. While in this state, your subconscious mind becomes more receptive to change.

I’ll offer a series of suggestions and new ideas designed to transform the way you perceive your issue. You may be asked to speak, but only to describe or acknowledge experiences in the moment or a simple instruction like lifting your finger — your other thoughts remain private.

Throughout the session, you’ll remain completely in control and aware of your surroundings, experiencing deep relaxation and a sense of calm. Some clients find this state to be a highly enjoyable and peaceful experience.

Is it Safe?

Rest assured, hypnotherapy is completely safe, and there’s no risk of getting stuck in a trance. You maintain full control at all times. You’re always in control throughout the session.

Many clients notice positive changes even after just one session, with unhelpful thought patterns fading away. While the initial shifts may be subtle, over a short period, clients often experience heightened calmness and a stronger sense of empowerment.

How Do I Prepare For My Sessions?

Come with an open mind, believing in the effectiveness of hypnotherapy and a genuine desire to make positive changes. It’s beneficial to schedule sessions for times when you can fully engage with the hypnotherapy process.

Please provide at least 48 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a session to avoid cancellation fees. Your commitment and respect for appointment times ensure the best outcome for your therapy.

Feeling tired is perfectly okay, as it may facilitate relaxation and deeper engagement with the therapy. However, please refrain from attending sessions if you are intoxicated or under the influence of drugs. For safety reasons, hypnotherapy cannot be conducted if you’re already in an altered state of consciousness. In such cases, sessions will be rescheduled, and cancellation fees may apply.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

The number of sessions required varies depending on your specific needs and the nature of your issue. Typically, clients find resolution within four to six sessions, but this very much depends on your specific needs and the nature of your issue.

I always aim to ensure your treatment is completed efficiently and effectively, minimizing the number of sessions required.

Smoking Cessation & Stopping Vaping are typically addressed in a single extended session, while certain phobias can often be treated in four sessions. The Virtual Gastric Band Weight Loss Programme & Hypno-Band Weight Loss System are typically conducted over four to five sessions.

How Much Will It All Cost?

If you’re concerned about the cost of hypnotherapy, know that it’s more affordable than you might expect, especially when compared to the price of not addressing your issue.

Consider the true cost of allowing your problem to persist unchecked. Investing in your well-being now can lead to long-term benefits and a happier, more fulfilling life.

Our Initial Consultation (IC) is priced at £75, subsequent Clinical Hypnotherapy Sessions are £85 and you can enjoy Discounted Rates when you book 4, 6, or 8 session packages, allowing you to save money while investing in your health and happiness.

What Are My Next Steps?

Our journey begins with a FREE 20 Minute Initial Chat. It’s an opportunity for you to tell me a bit about your issue, to ask questions, and seek advice. There’s no cost or obligation to book more sessions. Held over the phone.

If agreed or if you prefer you can proceed to book your Initial Consultation straight away of course.

We’ll explore your current feelings, personal goals, and assess if hypnotherapy is the right choice for you. It’s also an opportunity to ensure your comfortable working with me and to discuss the optimal approach for your unique situation.

You’ll also get a Free MP3 Audio which will support the work we do in sessions once we agree on a Treatment Plan or Programme.
