Virtual vs. In-Person session

There is absolutely no difference between virtual and in-person sessions in terms of their effectiveness. It comes down to your personal preference. The most important part of hypnotherapy for it to have the greatest success is your comfort and willingness to be open to it.

How many sessions does it take to reach a goal or resolve an issue?

According to the American Journal of Psychotherapy and American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis, there is a 93% success rate with an average of 6 sessions.

What does hypnosis feel like?

Many report a pleasant physical relaxation and mental alertness, other subtle bodily sensations, and/or suspension of the sense of time. However, judgment, assessing, or measuring “How hypnotized am I?” weaken the response and results.

Will I be unconscious during hypnosis?

No. You are always conscious - in fact, hypnosis puts you in contact with both the conscious and subconscious mind simultaneously. You can hear everything (often more clearly!) and you can even open your eyes and talk while still in trance. Hypnotic trance is very pleasurable and often causes profound relaxation.

Will I lose control during hypnosis?

No. Your free will will always remain intact and so will your moral code. In fact, in hypnosis, you gain control because you have direct access to far greater faculties of your own mind. You can think clearly and will remember the content of the session. You can easily come out of hypnosis at any time you desire.
