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.



I ask that you be well prepared prior, with all the technology, the bedding or sofa or chair that you’re using and so forth as listed below.

 

Setting Up for Success

 

1.  You must have a stable internet connection.

2.  A private room where no distractions will occur (preferably not in your car),

3.  A camera on your laptop, tablet, or smartphone.

4.  A seat / sofa / couch / bed to relax your head back into.

5.  A place to position your phone or computer next to you so I have a clear view of your head, eyes and shoulders, and you are not holding the device in your hands.

6.  Headphones or earphones that fit your device.

7.  "Do not disturb" mode on your device.

8.  Device needs to be fully charged (including the  headphones or earphones). Also have your devices plugged in whilst having our pre-talk as video conferencing can chew up a lot of power on some devices.

9.  No animals / children in the room.

10.  Send me a friend request to www.facebook.com/LukeOD or add me as a contact on WhatsApp ( Luke O'Dwyer  +61 407 88 45 43 ) well before the day and time of your appointment.

11.  Pay your deposit.

12.  You may wish to download music to play during your session.

 

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.
