Location
I offer personalised hypnotherapy sessions in person at my clinic in Poole, as well as online sessions via video. Whether you choose to visit the clinic or opt for a virtual session, both provide a calming and relaxing experience, designed to help you achieve your goals in a comfortable and supportive environment.
Payment, Cancellations & Late Attendance
All payments should be made in full by Bank Transfer no later than 24 hours before your appointment. Without payment the session will not go ahead.
Please give me as much notice as possible for the cancellation. For cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice the full fee will be payable.
If you are late for your appointment we will still need to finish by the allotted time.
If you arrive for treatment under the influence of mind-altering drugs or alcohol, the session will be suspended, and the full fee charged.
Further sessions will be at my discretion and may be cancelled permanently.
If I think you would benefit from being referred to another therapist or specialist, we will agree to make the referral as soon as possible.
I reserve the right to cancel therapy at any time and to refuse prospective clients at my own discretion.
Contraindications
There may be certain conditions that mean hypnotherapy may be unsuitable for you. These include Psychosis, Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, Epilepsy, Narcolepsy, Severe Heart Disorders, Comprehension difficulties. Your safety is of paramount importance to me and I reserve the right to refuse treatment where I think your condition is outside of my scope of practice.
If I require any additional medical information from you before proceeding with hypnotherapy I may ask you to obtain this from your GP.
If you arrive for your session under the influence of alcohol or drugs the session will be suspended and the full fee charged. Further sessions will be at my discretion.
Confidentiality
Confidentiality is within our relationship and within my relationship with my supervisor (your personal details i.e. your name and address are not discussed in supervision). I will discuss any breach of this confidentiality with you in the first instance, except terrorist action or unless I believe you are in danger to yourself or others and unable to negotiate with me.
If I see you somewhere outside of our sessions, to ensure your confidentiality, I will not approach you or act as if I know you. However, if you acknowledge me then I will acknowledge you.
Although the therapeutic relationship is friendly, it is not the same as a friendship, so in order to maintain our therapeutic space as the confidential and safe experience that you deserve, I avoid any kind of dual relationship with current and former clients.
I may keep short digital notes from our sessions. Should notes be made, they are kept confidential and are stored in a safe, secure place.
Physical Contact
Occasionally some interventions require direct touch e.g. lifting a wrist. I will always ask your permission and explain exactly what and where the physical contact will occur prior to every occurrence. You may choose for us to work together entirely without touch; if you would prefer to do so, please let me know at the beginning of the session.
