During the strange and difficult time of the last two years of lockdowns and uncertainty linked to Covid I am incredibly proud to say I was brave enough to move all my Hypnotherapy services to Zoom Online sessions. This allowed me the flexibility to be able to offer Hypnosis despite the lockdowns and to be able to see clients who live many miles away. Now, two years on, I still offer my clients the option to have the session online. Many people now opt for in person sessions, but the fact that there is that option seems to attract those who have seen me face to face and now want to explore sessions that are more convenient too.
I totally understand if you are hesitant about having Hypnotherapy online. I have to say I was nervous at first myself, but I did it. And the more I practiced, the more confident I became.
Here is a list of what I changed in order to protect my client’s security, confidentiality and wellbeing:
- All contract details are now fulfilled via digital signatures software
- The client data gathering is GDPR compliant
- At my end, the session is carried out in an environment which is not interrupted, and so both the confidentiality and the client’s welfare is secured
- All payments are now carried out online
I also wanted to ensure that my clients were happy with the service online and so I collected some feedback. I was really pleased that every single one of my clients has been totally pleased with how well Hypnosis worked over internet. It is almost as if they were in the same room with me, but without having to travel.
A truly important message I received was that my clients were Comfortable, able to Relax and Stay Calm throughout the Hypnotherapy session.
Here are some of their words about how comfortable they felt during Zoom sessions of Hypnosis and Therapy online:
‘Like most people I was a little apprehensive about continuing my therapy on-line. I was unsure if I would be able to totally relax in my home environment and would the technology work well?
As soon as the session started, I felt completely at ease, I have found all my sessions just as impactful as if they were face to face.
On-line therapy has more than met my expectations and in the ‘on-line’ world we now find ourselves in, I would recommend it to everyone.’
“I was a little hesitant at first to meet with Anna virtually, and wondered how it could work as well as it does face to face. I needn’t have worried at all, the experience is exactly the same, a one to one private and safe environment where I am still able to talk candidly and enjoy the benefits of relaxation techniques.
All you need is a quiet space and some protected time, and you will benefit from exactly the same level of support and guidance”.
I am really happy that my clients are so relaxed and comfortable.
I have to say that since the beginning of this year a lot of my clients have preferred to book in for Hypnosis sessions in person to start with. I am, however, really excited that due to the success of the therapy sessions online I am able to widen my audience. The geographic constraints are no longer there. I am really happy to be able to offer Hypnotherapy and Psychotherapy to more people, to help them deal with their Anxiety, low moods/ Depression, reduce or ditch unwanted Habits and Move on from bad experiences in their lives. I feel honoured to help them increase their Confidence and Calm, and teach them tools and techniques they can use in their own space.
If you are considering therapy online but are still unsure about it, do get in touch. I am more than happy to answer any questions you may still have. I am also prepared to have the initial chat over Zoom in order to help you familiarise yourself with how it all works.
