How exactly do you bring a person back ?

Through some very simple techniques like changing the tone of my voice and counting backward like this : “ When I say 5 — start wiggling your toes ; 4 — start to feel your fingers and toes ; 3 — you ’ re feeling energised ; 2 — begin to feel the rest of your body ; 1 — open your eyes . If someone is in a really deep state , I might count down from 10 to give us a bit more time to bring them back to conscious awareness .

How many sessions are typically required for treatment ?

The length of treatment depends on what we ’ re working on . For example , smoking cessation is typically between three to five sessions but some people will need eight . Most people will start to experience differences right away because hypnotherapy for behavioural change ( like a smoking habit ) taps into a part of the mind that is generally untapped . Quitting smoking is usually tackled with the analytical mind but tapping into the emotion around it and accessing what ’ s happening below the surface can be a real gamechanger .

How much does a session cost ?

Prices can range from $ 195- $ 295 per session depending on where the hypnotherapist is located , the length of treatment , and the nature of the session . Many hypnotherapists offer a sliding scale to make treatment more affordable . Be sure to inquire when you schedule an appointment . I prefer to work with clients in-person but will visit their homes on occasion , if necessary . ZOOM sessions can also be arranged for reasons of convenience and social distancing .
