Hypnotherapy Sessions

Before a session takes place, you will be advised fully of the scope of hypnotherapy and give your full consent to receiving hypnotherapy.   No session will commence without your express consent.  You are able to stop the session at any time should you wish to.  If, once a session has commenced, I don’t feel my services are right for you, I reserve the right to terminate the session.

Hypnotherapy is not a substitute for professional, medical care.  If you have been diagnosed or suspect you have a medical condition, you should consult your GP for advice, diagnosis and treatment.  It is advisable to inform your health professional before starting any alternative or additional therapies or treatments.

I am unable to guarantee results as outcomes may vary.

Contraindications

For most people, hypnotherapy is a pleasant and extremely safe experience. However, there are occasions where hypnosis would be contraindicated.  If you have any medical conditions, please ask your doctor to give their approval before making a booking with me.

For some conditions, I will need written consent from your doctor.  Please let me know if you have any medical conditions before your appointment.

Your safety is my number one concern.

I cannot work with you if you have a diagnosis of:

• Psychosis
• Schizophrenia
• Pathological Personality Disorder
• Senility

No refunds will be given except in a situation where I have decided to terminate the session because I do not believe my services to be suitable for you.
