Booking an appointment

 

The first step is to call  -  0121 476 6752   or   07789 097 741 any time between 9am and 8pm Monday to Saturday. The nature of my work means that I am not always able to answer straight away, but please leave your name and telephone number and I will get back to you at the earliest opportunity (usually the same day).

 

You are welcome to call for information about my services or general advice about hypnotherapy for yourself, friend or relation. If I am unable to help with your query or know of a therapist who would be more appropriate to your needs I will do my best to guide you. If you wish to proceed to working with me we will arrange a mutually convenient time for you to come in. Appointments are available morning, afternoon and evening Monday to Friday. Other times are available under unusual circumstances or for one off sessions, feel free to ask.

 

The initial discussion may result in me suggesting that you come in for a free consultation. This is an opportunity for us to take your case history, for you to tell me the problem in your own words and for us to get comfortable with each other. I suggest consultations when issues appear to be more than simple habits or have some suggestion of complication. If I do suggest a free consultation, it will last about 45 minutes and there is no obligation upon you to book any further sessions.  

 

The first session – If you have had a consultation you will have some idea what is going to happen, we will have already discussed the nature of hypnosis and what clinical hypnosis and hypnotherapy are. However if this is your first time for meeting me we will typically spend some time discussing the issue, finding out about you, your motivations and what you are aiming to achieve. We will also discuss the nature of hypnosis, and I will take the time to discuss any questions you may have. 

 

After that you will be guided into an hypnotic trance in which you will be aware of your environment, you may feel relaxed, perhaps sleepy but will always have a degree of awareness of your surroundings. For most people this turns out to be a familiar experience which they will have entered at some point in their lives quite naturally and left just as naturally. Whilst in trance I will deliver suggestions or employ psychotherapeutic approaches derived from my training and experience which will be tailored to fit the way you think and perceive the world.

 

The nature of your problem and needs in life will define how many sessions are required. Although each case is different, many problems respond well in 1-4 sessions. Sessions are typically an hour to an hour and a half.

 

If you have any questions, or wish to book a consultation please call to talk – 07789 097 741 or 0121 476 6751
