All Skype sessions are around 60 minutes in duration, give or take.

Now, even though you’re here, you could still be saying to yourself, ‘hypnosis sounds great, but I just don’t see myself doing this on Skype… Is it really effective as in-person sessions?

As with most self-limiting beliefs, this is simply a question of perception. For starters, you might think hypnosis through Skype isn’t for you, but I’ll bet at some point you didn’t see yourself using hypnosis to solve your anxiety issue either. But here you are looking into it.

Of course, an analogy is one thing, but let’s conduct a true thought experiment: Take a moment to put on one of your favorite songs and listen to it for a few moments.

What are you sensing, feeling? Happiness? Excitement? Relaxation?

Now…

…is the band or singer singing to you in-person?

It’s the same thing with Skype hypnosis. You don’t need for me to be in the room with you.
Whether you’re in my office with me or I’m speaking to you through Skype, the effects are the same.
Your subconscious doesn’t know or care if we’re ten feet apart or on opposite sides of the planet.

Because the instant you close your eyes, you’ll experience the same high-quality hypnosis sessions as if you were in the same room with me. It truly makes no difference.

This has been no more apparent than during the uncertain times of living through a pandemic.

Concerns regarding a group session generally boil down to 2 things:

The therapeutic quality of a group session will not be as effective as the 1-to-1 And/or Privacy

I’ll address the group effectiveness question first…

Simply put, even though it’s a group session, the therapeutic effects of my Skype hypnosis will be exactly the same as a 1-to-1.

I’ll introduce myself to you and to the other people, conduct a pre-trance segment which involves a series of questions and statements designed to reframe some of the associations you have around fear and anxiety (this gets you thinking differently about how you relate to situations), and then the closed-eye, deep trance session will begin.

From there I’ll induce you into a trance state, during which time I’ll speak to the group as if it’s just one person (addressing the group as “you” – while occasionally speaking to a specific individual by name) with the therapeutic process being virtually identical to a 1-on-1.

During a session, only your first name will ever be used. Also, if you’re not very familiar with Skype and don’t like the idea of being seen, know you can just use Skype’s audio option and leave the video off. This means besides others during the session listening to me, YOU WILL HAVE TOTAL PRIVACY.
