A Personalised Induction
When anyone goes to see a hypnotherapist today, on the initial appointment the hypnotherapist will assess the client to get an understanding of what they want to achieve from the therapy sessions, what they expect to happen to see if they have a good understanding of how hypnotherapy can work, and how hypnotherapy is achieved. The hypnotherapist will start to build up a rapport with the client which will help to build a trust up between the hypnotherapist and the client which will hopefully help to reassure the client so that they can get the most from the sessions.
