Selecting A Hypnotherapist

The relationship between the hypnotherapist and client is an important one. A high level of trust and understanding between the two of you will increase the likelihood of success, so choose someone who:

• Treats you as a unique individual and is perceptive of your needs

• Is able to identify problem areas and to determine an appropriate scope of induction and treatment

• Maintains objectivity

• Does not allow his/her own agenda (or problems) to interfere with your treatment

• Is respected by the medical & psychological community

• Effectively handles surprises and emotionally charged situations

• Respects your confidentiality
