Below are some frequently asked questions by Philip's clients about Hypnotherapy, Psychtherapy and Hypnosis.
Q
Can
people get stuck in hypnosis and not be able to come back
up?
A
No. You can break the state at any time
you wish.
Q
I feel a bit nervous, can I bring someone with me to help me feel a bit more confident?
A
Yes that's no problem for the initial consultation. However, with regard to the sessions themselves, your friend will need to sit in the waiting room. The only exception to this is for anyone under the age of 16, a guardian must attend and remain in the consultation room for the entire session.
Q
I doubt
if I can be hypnotised, are you sure you can hypnotise
anyone?
A
Yes, providing you want to be hypnotised
and you cooperate, though the depth of trance will vary
from person to person. The only people who cannot be hypnotised
are children under the age of about six or seven and anyone
heavily under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Q
Are details
of sessions kept confidential?
A
Yes, with the following limitation. Should
Philip believe that your safety or the safety of another person
is in doubt, he will take whatever steps are necessary
in my opinion to ensure nothing untoward happens either
to you or another person. Your session notes are shredded when your therapy is complete.
Q
Will I remember
everything afterwards?
A
Yes.
Q
I am frightened
I might blurt something out and make a fool of myself.
Does this happen very often?
A
Never
Q
Can I be
made to do something I don’t want to?
A
No
Q
How long
does a session last?
A
Sessions normally last about 50 minutes
Q
Is my mind
under your control?
A
No
Q
Are any
drugs used?
A
No
