Can you get hypnotised over the phone?

Only if you want to!

 

Some people say they prefer to do hypnotherapy over the phone or via online video, because they feel more comfortable in their own surroundings, and by using headphones, they're able to block out all distractions.

 

Advantages of Live Online Hypnotherapy

 

There are several advantages to doing hypnotherapy online compared to traditional face-to-face sessions. Here are some of the benefits:

  1. Convenience: Online hypnotherapy allows you to have sessions from the comfort of your own home or any location of your choice. You don't have to travel to my office, saving you time, transport costs, and effort. It is particularly beneficial if you have mobility issues, limited transportation options, or if you live more than 2 hours' drive from Brisbane.

  2. Accessibility: Online hypnotherapy expands access to my therapy for you if you have no local hypnotherapists available; or who prefer to work with me specifically, and you live outside my geographical region. It allows me to connect with you worldwide, and you can choose the therapist who best suits your needs.

  3. Increased anonymity: Some people may feel more comfortable discussing personal issues or undergoing therapy when they have a degree of anonymity. Online sessions provide you with a sense of privacy and can reduce the perceived stigma associated with seeking help.

  4. Flexibility in scheduling: Online hypnotherapy offers more flexibility in scheduling appointments. I can often find time in the evening or weekend sessions, making it easier to find a time that fits your schedule. Additionally, international time-zone differences may be less of an obstacle when conducting sessions online.

  5. Familiar environment: Being in a familiar environment during therapy sessions may help you feel more relaxed and open to the process. You can create a comfortable space for yourself at home, which can enhance the effectiveness of hypnotherapy.

  6. Cost-effective: Online hypnotherapy sessions can be more affordable compared to traditional in-person therapy. I charge lower fees for online sessions due to reduced overhead costs and time. Additionally, we both save money on transportation expenses, parking fees, or other associated costs.

It's important to note that while online hypnotherapy offers many advantages, you may still prefer face-to-face sessions for various reasons. The choice between online and in-person hypnotherapy depends on personal preferences, therapeutic goals, and the nature of your needs.

 

Why is hypnotherapy face-to-face better than doing it live online through a video chat?

 

The effectiveness of hypnotherapy can vary based on individual preferences and the specific circumstances of the therapy. Both face-to-face and online hypnotherapy have their advantages and potential drawbacks. 

 

  1. Personal Connection: Being physically present in the same room as the hypnotherapist can create a stronger personal connection and rapport between me and you. You may find this connection enhances the therapeutic process.

  2. Environment Control: I have more control over the environment, ensuring it is quiet, comfortable, and free from distractions.

  3. Non-verbal Cues: In-person sessions allows me to pick up on subtle non-verbal cues, such as body language and facial expressions, which can be important for understanding the your responses.

  4. Trust Building: You may feel more comfortable and trust the therapeutic process more when interacting face-to-face.

 

Ultimately, the choice between face-to-face and online hypnotherapy depends on your preferences, comfort levels, and the specific goals of the therapy. You may find that the benefits of convenience and accessibility outweigh any potential drawbacks of online sessions, while others may prefer the personal connection and environment control offered by face-to-face interactions. Feel free to discuss both options with me before making a decision, and choose the format that aligns best with your needs and preferences.
