Your first session will begin with a detailed discussion about your goals and any presenting issues. This conversation helps me understand your needs and tailor the session accordingly. We will discuss any family (childhood), relational, and professional history. I will explain what hypnosis is and what it isn’t, dispelling common myths and misconceptions. You’ll learn that hypnosis is a safe, natural state. You will remain conscious and fully in control throughout the session. I will explain the theory of mind and how hypnotherapy works with the subconscious mind. We’ll also address any questions or concerns you might have about the process or hypnotherapy in general. We will set an intention for our work together. The session will proceed with an induction, a technique used to guide you into a hypnotic state. Depending on your goals, the therapeutic part of the session will involve various techniques. This might include guided imagery, direct suggestions, or conversations with your higher self. Your very first session will usually involve guiding you into a deep state of relaxation. This will allow you to experience what it feels like to be in a state of hypnosis and prepares you for your future sessions. Following the deep relaxation and hypnotherapy work, I will guide you to gently return from the hypnotic state. You will be counted out of hypnosis emerging relaxed and refreshed. We’ll discuss your experience during hypnosis and outline a plan for future sessions.

A 15-minute call to explore where you’re feeling stuck, what support you might need, and whether this work is right for you.
