FAQs

What happens in the first counselling session?

In the first session Tania will explain how she works and ask a few questions about what has led you to seek support. She will then explore what you would like to get out of the therapy. If you don’t know what that is yet, she will help you identify the results you are looking for. Tania will usually share at least one strategy or activity you can take away with you from this first session.

What is the therapeutic alliance?

This is the relationship a client and counsellor build through counselling sessions. Research strongly suggests that the quality of this relationship can be as effective as the therapeutic intervention itself.

So, it is essential that the therapist you see is someone you ‘click’ or ‘gel’ with!

For this reason, Tania doesn’t prescribe a minimum number of sessions. She will inform you as to how many sessions it may take to reach your goal(s) in therapy, but how many you attend is up to you.

If I attend for counselling do I have to engage in hypnotherapy?

No. Hypnotherapy sessions are booked separately to counselling sessions as the process is very different. Tania may suggest hypnotherapy if she deems it could be beneficial in your circumstances, but it is entirely your choice. Hypnotherapy is simply another therapeutic approach and if it isn’t for you, Tania will use other approaches.

Can I just attend for Hypnotherapy?

Yes, you can. The first session will contain counselling elements to identify your goals, and then progress to hypnotherapy.

What is hypnotherapy?

Hypnotherapy can be described as an interaction between a therapist and client where the therapist guides the client verbally through suggestion. This guidance is used to support the client to shift their perceptions, feelings, thoughts, and behaviour through guided imagery, toward the reality they want to create for themselves.

What happens in the first hypnotherapy session?

In the initial hypnotherapy session Tania will discuss with you the changes you would like to make, and she will then explain the process of hypnosis. You can ask any questions you may have. Tania will then guide you through the process of hypnosis, helping clear anything you would like to release, and using suggestions you have agreed upon to make the changes you want to make.

The process is respectful, and you continue to have control throughout the session. It is very different to ‘stage hypnosis’ you may have seen or heard about. This process is not something you can get ‘wrong’, it is simply about allowing the process. Most clients describe the hypnotic experience as very relaxing once they allow it.
