What do I need to do to prepare for the first session?
I suggest we hop on a quick phone call before our first chat. It’s not just about getting things sorted but also about building a rapport and figuring out what goals you’ve got in mind. Plus, it’s a chance to ask anything on your mind or ease any nerves about hypnotherapy.
Before we dive into our first actual session, it’s handy for you to dig into the background of what’s going on. Think about the experiences that might’ve affected how things are for you now. For example, pinpointing key incidents can be super helpful if it’s a phobia.
Our sessions usually last an hour. The first one might stretch a bit longer, but no worries, the cost stays the same. We’ll start by chatting about your details and a quick medical rundown.
Then, we’ll get into the nitty-gritty of your situation. Don’t worry if you’re still unsure about the techniques or what’s in store – that’s what we’re here to discuss. I’ll also map out how you can keep the momentum between our sessions, maybe with some “homework” or reinforcement tasks. Questions are more than welcome at any point before, during and after sessions.
We can chat about follow-ups once we’ve wrapped up the first session. Most people find weekly sessions work best, but we can tweak that based on what you need. Sometimes, life throws curveballs, so it’s no big deal if we need to shift things around.
