How does Hypnosis work?

Some clients have a 15 minute complementary consultation call in order to demonstrate that we are a great fit in their journey of healing.  A client agreement form is sent to assess for a thoughtful understanding of what the concerns are for the client.  The first hypnotherapy session will include a deeper conversation of what the concern is and may or may not include hypnosis.  This may be due to time constraints and how the client may need to be heard at the conscious level.  Some issues may be deeper and needing certain acknowledgements and understandings at the conscious level before going into the subconscious.  There may be other modalities that can be used to help with the issue as well.

What is Hypnosis like?

Hypnosis is a natural state of the mind.  The feeling of hypnosis is commonly felt as peaceful, calming, and that of relaxation.  In a hypnotic state, people are able to be deeply attentive to and gain knowledge on what they are focused on.  Commonly, people feel this during, to days, and to weeks after the session.

Can you brain wash me or mind control me?

No.  This is unethical and not at all part of my practice.  You are in total control and hyper-focused in your mind during the sessions.  You always maintain choice to accept the positive suggestions or reject them.  You are in complete control of your life.

Can I be made to do something I don’t want to do?

No, you maintain free will to make your choice of what you want to do or not want to do.  A hypnotist is a guide who assists in the direction and leading of a client during their trance to experience a wonderful journey of learning and knowledge.

How many sessions will it take to attain change you desire?

I take a client centered approach in my practice.  There have been wonderful results seen in one session, while others have needed more time.  As hypnotherapy is not a magic cure for any ailment.  The client is encouraged to transform and learn at the pace that is most comfortable for the long lasting growth and results.

How do I know if I can be hypnotized?

Most people are hypnotizable at some level. Hypnosis is a natural state of the mind and has been scientifically validated.  It is the willingness of the individual to be open to the ideas outside of their preverbal “problem box”.  You are the key to your healing with the willingness to believe in yourself.
