As a part of our hypnosis session protocol, prior to your first hypnosis session, we will request that you answer our Confidential Questionnaires. We ask you to fill these out in advance so that you and your hypnotist can be well prepared to help you at your first hypnotherapy session. Gathering information with our Intake Form, Making Changes and our Primary Sensory Mode Test not only helps us prepare for a productive session, but is also of great value to you. As you respond to our questions, you will have a more thorough understanding of the challenge(s) that you have been struggling with and can start the process of change even before your first appointment begins.
To ensure optimal success and outstanding results we take a holistic approach to helping all of our clients and ask you to be prepared to implement basic, yet important healthy changes in your lifestyle to achieve your goals. We will coach you on your sleep habits, diet and nutrition as well as you weekly exercise routine, all in an effort to build you a solid foundation which will support your therapy.
- Your first hypnosis session will be for one hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours.
- Your follow-up session will typically last 1 hour.
- Future reinforcement sessions can be conducted in less than 1 hour.
Upon your arrival, you will find a comfortable and professional office. (You should know that we can provide special privacy arrangements for our celebrity clients, if requested.) You will begin your session promptly, with little or no wait time.
Prior to experiencing the profoundly relaxed state of hypnotic trance, your hypnotist will review your Confidential Questionnaires with you and learn more about you. This thorough talk with you will help your hypnotherapist discover any impediments that might have hindered you from achieving your goals in the past and living the life you desire. During this conversation your hypnotist will also explain how hypnosis works and answer any questions you may have about the whole process. At the end of the conversation your hypnotist will be able to use his/her extensive experience and flexibility to tailor the hypnosis suggestions to your particular personality, lifestyle and needs.
After this conversation, as you are seated in a comfortable chair in the office, you will be gently guided into a relaxing trance, in which you will be more able to accept into your mind, as you wish, those ideas and beliefs which will propel you to a new life, overcoming and resolving your challenges. While in this trance, you can come out of it anytime you wish to resume regular consciousness, but most people find that they enjoy it and want to stay in this stress-free, peaceful state. You will consciously hear what your hypnotist is saying and can accept or reject any of the positive suggestions they will be making to you. With the empathetic guidance of your hypnotist you will quickly and easily make the changes you desire.
