How booking works

$0to request

You send a request, I reply within one to two business days with your intake paperwork and a secure booking link. Payment happens at that point, not before.

  • No card details on the request form
  • Pay and choose your time in one step
  • One session at a time — never a package
  • If I am not the right fit, I will say so and refer you on

If you are not ready for individual sessions

Weekly group hypnosis session

$100/ person / 60 minutes

Individual sessions are the main work I do, and most people start there. The group is for people who want to try hypnosis for pain before committing to that, or who want a weekly hour of practice alongside their individual sessions, or after they finish. One hour, online, once a week, and you pay for the sessions you attend.

  • One hour, online by video, weekly
  • $100 a person, paid per session, no package
  • A guided hypnosis session for pain, taught so you can use it at home
  • Camera off is fine, and a first name is enough. Whoever keeps their camera on is visible to the rest of the group
  • Nobody shares their history. I ask everyone to keep who was there to themselves, and I can only promise that for myself
  • No personalised recording and no individual work. Those are the one-to-one sessions
  • Complementary to medical care, never a replacement for it. The same limits apply as for one-to-one work: pain that has not been medically assessed, active psychosis and crisis are not for the group
  • To join: send a request through the site and write "group". I reply within one to two business days with the day, the time and the joining link

How many sessions to budget for

Six to eight is the honest answer, and I would rather you knew that before you start than discovered it at session three.

Typical course of hypnotherapy for pain
StageSessionsWhat happensCost
Foundation1–3 Map the pain, establish trance, first analgesia work, first recording $750
Consolidation4–8 Deepen the work, guarding release, parts work, future rehearsal $1,250
Maintenanceas needed Monthly, then quarterly, then annually. Many people stop entirely $250 each

A full eight-session course is roughly $2,000. You pay per session, you are never locked into a package, and you can stop at any point.

What you get between sessions

Your personalised recording, refreshed as the work develops. This is not an add-on — the research is unambiguous that between-session practice is where most of the benefit accumulates.

How payment works

Once you have sent a request I reply with a secure Calendly link. You pay for the session and choose your time in the same step — nothing is charged before then. HSA and FSA cards are accepted, and I can issue a superbill for out-of-network claims, though coverage for hypnotherapy is not guaranteed.

If cost is the barrier

Say so in your request. I keep a small number of reduced-fee slots and I would rather have that conversation than have you not ask.

No outcome is guaranteed. Hypnotherapy is complementary care that supports but does not replace medical treatment. Results vary between individuals, and a minority of people get little benefit. Fees are for professional time, not for a specified result.
Questions

Money and logistics

Why do you not take insurance?

Insurance rarely covers hypnotherapy, and billing it would mean a diagnosis code in your permanent record, session limits set by someone who has never met you, and treatment decisions shaped by a claims process. Private pay keeps the work between us. I will provide a superbill if you want to try for out-of-network reimbursement.

When exactly am I charged?

Not on the request form — it takes no payment details at all. After I have read your request and replied, you get a Calendly link that handles payment and scheduling for that session together. You pay one session at a time, so you are never holding a package you cannot use.

Can I use my HSA or FSA card?

Many clients do, and hypnotherapy for a medical condition is often an eligible expense — but plans differ, so check with your administrator. A letter of medical necessity from your physician strengthens the case considerably.

What is your cancellation policy?

Please give 24 hours' notice to reschedule without charge. Late cancellations and no-shows are charged the full session fee. Genuine emergencies are handled like adults.

Is there a group option?

Yes. A weekly online group hypnosis session, one hour, $100 a person, paid per session. It is for people who are not ready for individual work, or who want a weekly hour of practice alongside it. It is a guided hypnosis session for pain, not a talking group, and nobody shares their history. To join, send a request through the site and write "group"; I reply within one to two business days with the day, the time and the joining link.

Do I have to commit to a package up front?

No. You book one session at a time. I recommend planning for six to eight because that is what the research supports, but you are never locked in and you can stop whenever you like.

What if it does not work for me?

Then I will tell you. If we get to session four with nothing moving, I would rather have a straight conversation about that — including what else might be worth trying — than keep taking your money. I do not offer refunds on sessions already delivered, and I do not guarantee outcomes; nobody honest in this field does.
