What to Expect

While hypnosis has many beneficial effects, hypnosis is not a substitute for appropriate medical attention. I do not claim to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or illness.

I do not represent my services as any form of medical or mental health care, and by law, I may make no health benefit claims for my services. When dealing with physical and/or mental illness or disease, always consult a qualified physician or therapist. 

My hypnosis services rendered are held out to the public as nontherapeutic hypnotism, defined as the use of hypnosis to inculcate positive thinking and the capacity for self-hypnosis.

As a hypnosis counselor, I help clients develop and maintain positive thinking. I coach and guide clients toward the achievement of their vocational and avocational goals.

I make no guarantees about hypnosis other than I do my best to produce what I believe are quality hypnosis sessions and recordings. The only one who can guarantee your success is you.

Never listen to hypnosis recordings while driving a car or operating machinery.  When listening to hypnosis recordings, choose an environment that is quiet and safe.

The services I provide are not intended to take the place of professional counseling or medical or psychological care and should not be used as a substitute for professional diagnosis and treatment.

My instructions and information provided are intended to be educational in nature, providing information, support, and encouragement.

Please consult your health care provider before making any health care decisions or for guidance about a specific medical condition.

If you are under medical or psychological care, obtain a signed, written referral from your provider(s).

Individual results may vary.

A first session is between 1 to 1.5 hours, as scheduled. While initial nervousness is common prior to a first session, in my experience, clients tend to very quickly feel at ease and enjoy their session. The initial session is generally longer than any following sessions, as time is spent reviewing intake forms, explaining the process, discussing client issues, challenges and goals, and learning personality traits relevant to creating a hypnosis session tailored to the individual. After the initial discussion is the “induction” wherein the client is assisted in entering the state of hypnosis. This portion of the hypnosis session is recorded. The recording is provided to the client to listen to at their convenience, which helps further reinforce the positive suggestions introduced during the in-person session. This makes the hypnosis session even more effective, and may reduce the number of additional sessions required. How many sessions are required is a common question. The answer is; it depends upon the individual’s desire to change, the presenting issue, and other factors. Every person is unique and results will vary.
