A Word on Doing Hypnosis Virtually…

Since the beginning of the pandemic the way that most therapists and coaches operate has been redefined. Prior to the lockdown, virtual sessions were not nearly as common as they are now. Currently in my own practice, online hypnotherapy sessions make up about half of my clientele. There are advantages and slight disadvantages to doing hypnosis in this way. My hope is to delve into this topic and answer some of the common questions prospective clients may have before starting their hypnosis journey.

The first and perhaps most obvious question people looking into hypnosis is whether or not doing hypnotherapy online is effective. This question usually stems from not having any hypnotherapy experience and not knowing what the process consists of. The most straightforward answer I give in my consultation calls to this question is that if hypnotherapy is going to work for you, it is going to work whether or not you are going to do it in-person or online. Of course there are some key differences that need to be addressed.

Firstly, when you do an in-person session, the hypnotherapist will provide a safe, comfortable, quiet and hopefully calming environment for you to be able to have a valuable and positive experience. Conversely, when you choose to do a virtual session, you are responsible for providing this sort of environment for yourself. Since the most basic and important aspect of doing hypnosis is that you will be able to focus hear each other, pets, family, significant others, street noise, and generally a lack of comfortable and quiet space can prove challenging and can all contribute negatively to success of the sessions.

However, there can be an advantage to starting the process from your home. Most people who contact me have never tried hypnosis and know very little about it aside from the negative misconceptions perpetuated through the media. As a result some may feel a bit uneasy about trying this form of therapy (unjustly so, I promise) and starting your first session from your home may provide a sense of comfort and ease associated with your environment. This of course can have a positive influence on the value and success of your first hypnosis session.

The bottom line is that virtual hypnosis is just as effective as an in-person session given you will be able to provide a quiet, comfortable space where you’ll be undisturbed for the duration of your time with the hypnotherapist.
