THE
INITIAL CONSULTATION
Prior to any therapy taking place there will be an initial
consultation where a full history of the client is taken and the issue
or problem to be resolved is discussed. The therapist will then advise
the client of the proposed treatment plan and the client will have an
opportunity to discuss and give consideration to the proposal, the number
of sessions recommended and the likely cost of treatment.
The length of treatment varies and is dependent upon which approach
is suggested by your therapist. However, we work very closely with you
in establishing a programme to suit your goals, needs and availability.
The decision on the length of therapy will be made after your initial
consultation and once the assessment of your problems has been made.

Medical
Considerations
Few medical conditions contra-indicate the use of hypnosis or psychotherapy,
though in some cases liaison with the client's GP may be appropriate.
Almost everyone who wishes to be hypnotized can achieve a level of relaxation
sufficient to allow therapy to take place.
