The Initial Consultation

The Initial Consultation is the first step in the hypnotherapy journey & is essential for both the client & the practitioner before moving forward with treatment. During the IC, we delve into your symptoms & explore how hypnotherapy can be help. I will also gather some pertinent information, including basic health details, to help me determine the best course of action & how we will collaborate.

​

A unique feature of Solution Focused Hypnotherapy is our focus on understanding the brain. so I explain how your mind works when conditions like depression, anxiety, OCD, and phobias etc. are created, why we experience them, and what we can do to alleviate these symptoms.

​

I then discuss how solution-focused hypnotherapy works, including an explanation of trance (or hypnosis) and its mechanisms. I will address the safety of the treatment and dispel any myths you might have heard, clarifying the commitment required for the process. Lastly, I give an estimated number of sessions I believe will be necessary based on the information you provide.

​

There is absolutely no obligation to proceed with treatment after this consultation, but it serves as an opportunity for us to get to know each other better. You can learn more about my background, qualifications, membership in professional organizations, and my experience, while also asking any questions you may have.

​

Please note that all clients are required to attend an initial consultation before embarking on any of hypnotherapy sessions."
