Yes, you remain in total control throughout the whole session. Just as you can stop reading a book or stop watching a film if you chose to, you can chose how long you stay in a hypnotic trance. Or even choose if you actually want to go into a hypnotic trance in the first place.

Yes, you will be awake throughout the session. At the end of the session you may feel relaxed and refreshed as though you had slept. But you will be awake throughout the whole process.

Hypnotising people against their will is an idea that belongs in films and novels. It does not apply to real-world hypnotherapy.

No, you cannot “get stuck” in hypnosis, just as you cannot “get stuck” reading a book, or “get stuck” watching TV.

In one famous case, a hypnotherapist helped his client go into a trance, and then, unfortunately, the hypnotherapist suffered a heart attack! After several minutes of silence, the client opened her eyes, to see the hypnotherapist unconscious on the floor. She phoned for an ambulance and saved his life.

So even if your hypnotherapist does go silent, because of a sudden heart attack, you will still be able to come out of the trance whenever you want to.

Yes, self-hypnosis can be taught, as part of the session, if that is something you want. Being able to use self-hypnosis can be very beneficial.

A typical session lasts 90 minutes. The first 40 minutes will be discussing what you want to achieve from the session. The latter half of the session will be spent in hypnosis.

A standard 90 minute session costs £125.

Multiple sessions can be booked at a reduced price.

Yes. Home visits can be more appropriate for people with mobility problems for example. Or maybe because it is more convenient.

Some people naturally feel more comfortable and at ease in their own home, and this may help them get more from the therapy session.

Appointments for home visits can be made by calling 020 8242 4519, and leaving your name and number. I will call you back straight away.
