Is Hypnotherapy better on Zoom than Face to Face?

I’ve been working with clients on Zoom since well before the covid pandemic; however, I switched exclusively to online hypnosis sessions with the first lockdown. There was no other option however, both my clients and I have found that online works best for most people. It’s convenient, you’re in a familiar space, and most people are now used to using Zoom. Since that lockdown has been completely lifted, every client still wants to work on Zoom.

So, as it’s what my clients want, I have decided to continue providing hypnotherapy exclusively online.

There are 4 reasons to choose online hypnotherapy instead of face to face:

1 It’s more convenient as it fits around your schedule. 

I can see you when it suits you with online hypnosis, not just when I’m at my therapy rooms. So, whether you are free evenings, weekends, early mornings, or lunchtimes, I can fit you in. I have even had clients book sessions whilst they are on holiday in Spain.

2 It’s more cost-effective and time saving as you don’t have any travel time

With face-to-face sessions, you had to travel to me, which cost both time and money. Previously, you would have had to spend money on public transport or fuel and parking. Now that cost has gone completely. Also, you would have had to allow time both before and after your session for travelling.

3 More relaxed, comfortable, and safe

Most clients find that being at home in a familiar place is more relaxing, and they feel instantly comfortable and safe. Also, you don’t have that potentially stressful experience of worrying about getting to my therapy rooms on time or travelling across London on buses and the Tube. At the start of sessions, clients on Zoom are much more relaxed and calmer than they are if they have had to travel to meet with me.

It’s impossible to get “stuck” in hypnosis, so you don’t need to worry about your WIFI going down or power cuts.

4 You can achieve deeper hypnosis and get quicker results

I have found that clients often achieve deeper hypnosis on Zoom than in therapy rooms and get faster and better results. This is because they are calmer, and more comfortable to start with.

What do you need for online hypnotherapy? You probably already have everything you need…

• A mobile phone, laptop, or computer on which you can run Zoom.
• A decent internet connection. You don’t need a high-speed connection, even 4G is fine.
• A private space where you won’t be disturbed. You can even have a session with me while you are at work.
• Headphones can be used particularly if you are in a noisy household, but they definitely aren’t essential.
