Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy refers to being guided into a relaxed state of focused attention by a professionally trained therapist during which beneficial suggestions and metaphors are made as a catalyst for profound change. While the brain is in a deeply relaxed state, it is more likely to absorb, integrate and act on the therapeutic messages aligned with your goals.

How does hypnotherapy feel?

During a hypnotherapy session, you won’t cluck like a chicken or embarrass yourself at a ‘hypnosis’ stage show. You gain a sense of control by working with your subconscious mind helping you release past emotions so you can move forward. The experience of hypnotherapy is a pleasant and relaxing feeling similar to that of daydreaming. It can be compared to being absorbed by a good book or your favorite movie, driving down a familiar route, going for a walk or run, losing track of time.

What can I expect from at the first appointment?

We will get to you each other and discuss what you are wanting to work on and achieve. I will map out the best course of action for you and always include a therapeutic hypnosis for the concern you are wanting treated.

Can I lose control?

No. You are always in control throughout your hypnosis experience. You'll have full control of yourself and be able to make decisions at all times. I cannot suggest anything against your values and I cannot take away your free will.

What if I can't be hypnotised?

Your amazing brain accesses a hypnotic state throughout the 24 hour cycle (usually upon waking up and before you fall asleep), so naturally you are already good at it without realizing.

Can I be stuck in hypnosis?

No. As you are always in control, you will always come out of hypnosis feeling alert ready to get on with your day. 

Are you registered?

I am an accredited hypnotherapist with Australia’s Peak Body Hypnotherapy Council Australia (HCA). I also hold Clinical Membership with Guild of Australian Hypnotherapists and invest in Continuing Professional Development and further education that exceed the requirements of my registration.

How many sessions will I need?

Hypnotherapy is an effective modality where you can start to see positive changes quickly. Every client is different and at the end of the first consultation, I will design a treatment plan for you that is realistic and safe.

What is the cost?

$230 per session*. Credit card payment facility is available at the end of the consultation. Please allow 75 minutes for your appointment so you never feel rushed to ease into a therapeutic hypnosis.

*I donate 10% of profits to struggling women. Some of the women we have been able to help are a mature aged woman with her legal costs so she can live in a safe environment; Cover some of the medical costs of a young woman with debilitating Crohn’s disease; Support GoFundMe of a single woman going through breast cancer who is currently unable to work. If there is a Cause close to your heart, please let me know during our consultation.

Can I get a rebate?

Rebates may be available from some private health insurers if you hold ancillary cover. I will provide you with a receipt at the end of each consultation so you can check and submit directly with your insurer. I am a provider of health and wellness services in Clinical Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy.

Why do you only offer appointments during the day?

I find that my clients get the most from their sessions when they’re not rushing from work exhausted or heading straight into evening commitments. I only offer three sessions per day to protect the quality and depth of each appointment. My clients appreciate that this focus allows them to experience deeply personal, high-quality hypnotherapy with transformative results and time to reflect afterwards. The hypnotherapy appointment turns out to be their favorite self-care day of the week.
