FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My rates for general hypnosis are $125/hour and $185/90 minutes. Smoking cessation is priced differently at $385, as a one time process with free backup. We do not accept insurance, but we do accept all credit cards, cash or check. I also offer phone hypnosis for those who live at a distance.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Our first step is to set up a brief phone consultation to help answer any of your questions and for me to learn a bit more about you. If you decide to make an appointment, I can usually get you in within about 1 week. At that point we'll send you some intake forms to have you fill out and return at least a day before your first session. This helps me have a better overview of your history and your goals with hypnosis. This also helps me to plan our sessions as well. Some life issues can take as little as 1 - 3 sessions. Other issues may take a bit longer. It is my experience however, that hypnosis is one of the fastest ways to easily change anything in your life that isn't working. Depending on the nature of your issue, in the first session we'll be discussing any Q & A on your forms, give you a chance to ask or discuss anything important to you and we'll decide what is best to work on first. You and I will work as a team. I will then teach you a bit about the process we'll be using and then begin our hypnotic work. Sessions can be once a week, twice a month or spaced out further if needed.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I received my clinical hypnotherapist diplomas back in 1992 in southern California. I am a graduate of L & P School of Professional Hypnotherapy in Garden Grove, CA. a state accredited and approved school in secondary education. I received training and diplomas in numerous therapeutic areas of clinical hypnotherapy, including Behavior Modification, Ericksonian, Gestalt, Freudian, Past Life Therapy, Transactional Analysis, Time Line Therapy, Smoking Cessation and Chronic Pain/Stress Management.
