Schedule an Appointment
Greetings,
I’m glad you’ve made the decision to take steps to resolve whatever issue has brought you here. Now, we need to set a time for our initial appointment.
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.
With the exception of Pre-Surgical Hypnotism (intended to make an upcoming surgery easier and less painful) I do not do single-session hypnotism. While such “quick fix” hypnotism may work for minor problems, I limit my practice to the more serious cases. If you become my client we will be meeting together for a while and will approach your issues in an orderly way to help resolve them and have them stay resolved.
At the present time it takes about three weeks to get an appointment for an Intake Session. However, if you are in serious trouble or in physical pain I will make an effort to get you in sooner if you can be flexible about time.
There are two ways to make an appointment.
First, you may contact me through voice mail at (630) 668-1141. If you contact me through voice mail you will find that my voice mail greeting is updated daily. It will tell you when you may expect my return call.
Second, you may schedule an appointment here. To do so, please view my schedule below and select an available appointment slot that works for you. Times marked "busy" and colored purple, green or amber are already taken. Available time slots are in white or beige. Private sessions normally may be scheduled Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 10 am to 7 pm, and Saturdays from 2:30 pm to 6:30 pm. Sessions are one hour in length.
Then, click on the "Client Pre-Registration" menu item. This will open a form where you can give me your contact information and the time you have selected for your intake. I will respond by email as soon as I get your message and will confirm the appointment.
Whether we connect by voice or email, I will explain my fee structure (I do take credit cards, which is the preferred method of payment), and will give you directions to my office. If a medical or psychological referral is needed for me to address your issue I will explain how to obtain it at that time.
I will look forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes,
C. Scot Giles
