Frequently asked questions

Is hypnosis safe?

Absolutely. Hypnosis is a safe, natural state that people drift in and out of every day—like when you’re daydreaming or fully absorbed in a good book. It is not mind control, and you can stop at any time.

What is hypnosis?

Hypnosis is a natural, relaxed state of focused attention. In this state, your mind becomes more open to positive suggestions and new ways of thinking. You remain in control at all times—it’s not about being “asleep” or “out of it,” but about being more receptive to change.

Will I lose control or reveal secrets?

No. You remain fully aware and in control during the entire session. You decide what you share, and you can stop the process at any time. Many clients say they feel calm, comfortable, and in charge throughout.

How many sessions will I need?

This varies depending on your goal. Some clients notice improvement after just one session, while others benefit from a short series of sessions. I’ll recommend a plan that’s tailored to you after our first meeting

What if hypnosis doesn’t work for me?

Most people can experience hypnosis, but the results depend on your willingness and commitment to the process. My role is to guide you; your role is to be open to change. If I feel hypnosis isn’t the right fit for you, I’ll always be honest about it.

Do you offer Past Life Regression?

Yes, for clients who are curious about exploring past life memories for personal insight, spiritual growth, or understanding patterns in their current life. It’s a deeply relaxing process and a unique form of inner exploration - Read more

What can hypnosis help with?

I work with clients for a wide range of issues, including:

  • Stress and anxiety

  • Phobias and fears

  • Building confidence and self-esteem

  • Weight management

  • Breaking unwanted habits (e.g., nail biting, smoking)

  • Pain management

  • Past Life Regression (for personal insight and exploration)

If you’re unsure whether hypnosis can help your situation, just ask—I can advise whether it’s the right approach for you.

What happens during my first session?

We start with a relaxed conversation about what you’d like to achieve. I’ll explain the process and answer any questions. Then we’ll begin the hypnosis session, which is simply a guided process that helps you enter a comfortable, focused state. Afterwards, we’ll talk through your experience and next steps.

Can I do hypnosis online?

Yes. I offer online hypnosis sessions via Zoom for clients in New Zealand and around the world. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person sessions, and you can enjoy them from the comfort of your own home.

How do I book a session?

You can book online or contact me directly. If you’re new to hypnosis, I recommend starting with a free 15-minute consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
