Online Session
You can now enjoy hypnotherapy sessions from the comfort of your own home using video chat live through Skype. Skype is a free program that can be used from your computer, tablet or mobile phone. Alternatively, sessions can be held over FaceTime or similar video conference methods.
Advantages of Online Sessions
- Convenience: The major advantage of an online session is the removal of transportation barriers. Whether you are not able to make find a ride to the office, don’t want to deal with traffic or on vacation you can still get your session in from the comfort of your own computer.
- Comfort: Another advantage of online sessions is that you are in your own environment. For some people, this is a big factor. Imagine relaxing in your ideal environment while enjoying your hypnosis session. You can relax more because you are in a familiar environment.
- Time Management: With the hustle and bustle of everyday, sometimes it feels like there is not enough time in the day. Doing your hypnotherapy session via online video conferencing you have the flexibility to fit in a session at a time that is more convenient. You can connect at your scheduled time from the comfort of your own home or office and not have to factor in the drive time, saving that extra drive time for yourself to enjoy.
- Uninterrupted Sessions: If you can’t make it to the office, you can always find some time to do your session from home without disrupting the flow of your therapy.
