We do not treat mental or emotional disorders or attempt to cure medical diseases or physical disorders. Hypnotists and hypnotism are not licensed in Texas. We are not medical, dental, or mental health providers. We cannot make a medical diagnosis, prescribe drugs, or recommend discontinuing drugs. Medical terminology is taken from referrals by medical professionals. We treat symptoms, not diseases.
We offer advice, counsel, or guidance ancillary to our occupations as hypnotists.
* Individual results may vary; every person is different. Some issues are resolved more quickly for some individuals than others, and results cannot be guaranteed.
Any testimonials presented are the experiences of one individual, and YMMV.

What Does It Cost?
How Many Sessions Does It Take?
These are important questions, especially if you have been involved in lengthy therapies that didn't produce results, or maybe hypnosis is your last hope. Hypnotherapy is not a form of magic in which you have one session and walk out cured. All forms of hypnosis work with your subconscious mind to give you more control and power over your body and behaviors. So the amount of time varies from person to person. That said, here are some facts:
- Most of our clients come to us for 2 to 4 sessions, or up to 8 sessions for FND/FMD referrals. But since we treat each person as an individual with unique requirements and situations, it could take fewer or more sessions.
- You will begin to see the process of change after the very first session, and most change occurs between sessions, as your subconscious mind processes what we did during the session
- Weight Loss requires an extended time period during which the weight loss is monitored
- Many of our clients find the initial results so striking, they continue to return to us, to multiply that success and improve their quality of life in other areas
- If you're a smoker, how much do you spend for a year of cigarettes? How much of an investment would you make to earn that amount of money back?
- If you don't really want to change, and are hoping hypnosis will force you to change, it isn't going to happen. Hypnosis is not magic, but we will explain to you during the first session why it has the appearance of magic!
- We have only had a handful of clients over our entire careers who just could not be hypnotized at all. It is very rare, and in most cases a misunderstanding of what it means to "be hypnotized". Hypnosis does not require trance, and most people who claim to be "unhypnotizable" were simply unable to "go into trance". Because our techniques are 100% effective without trance, we do not concentrate on "putting people in trance". So you can relax and realize that you will be 100% in control, not spaced out in some sort of dissociated sleep state.
Why we are unable to accept insurance for payment
The state of Texas does not license hypnotists or hypnotherapists. And insurance companies will only pay for services of licensed healthcare providers. We are thus in the position of being unable to bill insurance for our hypnotherapy work. Consequently, we have set our fee schedule as low as possible so people can pay with a credit card. We have also found that our sessions cannot generally be paid for with HSA/FSA cards. When you begin the Appointment scheduling process, it will show you the cost for the session before you commit to the booking.
We now conduct all our hypnotherapy sessions over Zoom teleconference. There is no need to travel anywhere anymore!
Appointments
Generally appointments can be made with our online appointment scheduler from your computer or smart phone at least 24 hours in advance. The price for the 1 hour session is shown on the appointment booking screen, depending on the particular servie you require. We are currently doing all sessions over Zoom videoconferencing, a simple and effective way of conducting hypnosis sessions. You can cancel or reschedule an appointment up to 2 hours before the scheduled session start time.
If you have questions about our services, accepted forms of payment, our facility, or our processes, please use the form below and we will respond as soon as possible. Except for special circumstances, we are currently doing ALL sessions over Zoom. This is more convenient for both of us, and we obtain 100% of the same results this way. If, for some reason, you need an in-person appointment, we can generally book a day office or hotel suite near you at cost.
