Our first appointment together is an Intake Session. Unless you are in serious physical pain, I do not usually do hypnotism at the Intake Session. Instead, we get to know each other, I do some basic testing to determine how best to help you, and we create your Problems List and Goals List. Then I will make a recommendation on how best to help you, and can give you an estimate for how long I think it will take to accomplish your goals.
Typically, I will recommend a series of hypnotic sessions with at least one “check point” where we stop and ask “Are we getting results?” We will not continue beyond the check point unless both you and I agree that or work together is showing real progress.
If I conclude at your Intake Session that it is unlikely I can help you, there is no charge for the session.
