*Hypnotherapy to quit smoking

 

This usually requires 2 to 3 consultations as follows:

 

The first Consultation of 1 hour 50 minutes is an intensive preparation session followed 3 to 8 days later by the "quit session" of 1 hour.

 

Approximately 2-4 weeks later, there is the opportunity to follow up with a reinforcement session (1 hour) to ensure that you "stay quit".

 

Most people find that this three-session approach works well for them and some people have in fact quit after the preparation session and have used their planned quit session as the reinforcement session.

 

Some people have other issues they wish to address as well as wanting to quit smoking - depending on the individual and the issue(s) concerned, it may be the case that the "other issue(s)" need to be addressed first and this will be discussed during your first consultation.

 

How many sessions will I need for other issues?

 

This depends upon the individual and the nature of the issue(s) but as a general guide, most people can be helped effectively within 4 to 8 sessions usually 3 to 8 days apart. In some cases, even a single session can be enough to help you to create a shift in your perception and thought patterns to enable you to become "unstuck" and move towards making the changes you want to make.

 

How do I pay?

 

For face-to-face consultations, payment can be made by cheque or cash at the time of consultation and for telephone consultations, payment is made on a monthly basis in advance.

 

What if I have to cancel an appointment?

 

If you need to cancel an appointment for whatever reason with less than 48 hours notice, a 50% cancellation fee will be applicable and every effort will be made to reschedule your appointment as soon as possible thereafter.

 

Where do consultations take place?


For a face-to-face consultation, you would need to come to Williamstown (just outside Melbourne city centre) BUT because I also work via telephone and email, we can work together wherever you are! If you don't live in the Melbourne area and are interested in working by telephone, we can use Skype to keep the cost down.
