HOW TO GET STARTED Your best first step is the evaluation: the more the hypnotherapist knows about you the better. For everyone is different in many ways. It is important to understand you as an individual in all the following respects: your learning style, how you process your experiences, how quickly you integrate, your history and the history of the problem/s you wish to overcome, your possible resistances,your conscious and subconscious readiness, willingness and ability to make changes, and other personal factors. Armed with this knowledge the hypnotherapist can determine the best approach to use for you and estimate more accurately what your needs are; including the frequency and length of treatment. There is a vast difference between clinical hypnotherapy and the kind of one shot, walk in or group types of hypnosis sessions commonly offered to the public. It is proven that personalized and individualized hypnotherapy offers the best success rates with the assurance of careful attention to all the elements of the problem and to get permanent results. No hit or miss hypnosis. Elaine Kissel always conducts an in depth evaluation of the individual seeking help and the problems he or she wish to overcome prior to making any recommendation for hypnotherapy. It includes a questionnaire and comprehensive in person interview with Elaine. This is a valuable experience for prospective clients as it is a chance to acquire a better understanding of their problems and themselves and how hypnotherapy can be of help. It also gives them an opportunity to get to know Elaine and develop confidence in her. Whatever brings you to Elaine, the evaluation procedures are essentially the same. Elaine Kissel is able to employ a variety of methodologies to assure your success. She is not limited to just one technique or modality. She even invents a technique just for you if and when necessary. Her Whole Mind Hypnotherapy has become famous for the remarkable results achieved. Her experience and knowledge enable her to tailor make your therapy and provide it in a professional and caring environment: Hypnotherapy with Elaine Kissel is prescribed for you as an individual on a program basis. No responsible professional will prescribe treatment or apply any technique of therapy without first doing the appropriate evaluation. Each client’s program designed by Elaine Kissel has a beginning, middle and end. and what it consists of cannot be determined before the evaluation. When some people call Elaine's office, they ask for a "ball park figure" or an average amount of the cost or length of therapy. "How many sessions will I need?" It is impossible to determine that before the evaluation. Just as a doctor does not proceed with treatment or average the amount of medication a person needs without knowing anything about the patient and before medical tests such as blood work,X-rays and examinations, neither does a responsible hypnotherapist. And the intelligent practical patient does not expect to be told over the phone when making an appointment with a physician what the treatment will be or what it will cost or how much treatment will be prescribed. He or she can only be told the fees for office visits. As with physicians, the professional hypnotherapist who is concerned for the client’s well being and wants the best results for all clients , will not have a one size fits all program. The standardized hypnosis programs available elsewhere cannot boast a significant success rates, although they do attract people who are looking for a quick fix. Elaine Kissel does not think about people in terms or averages and ball park figures. You can be assured, however, the results of hypnotherapy with Elaine Kissel are superior to other forms of therapy and in the majority of cases the length of the program is far less than with traditional therapies. And Elaine always recommends the minimum therapy necessary and is as concerned about cost effectiveness as you are and wants you to get you results in the shortest time possible. You are under NO obligation. There will be no "sales pitch" no pressure. Call now for your evaluation 248-865-9598- Visa Matercard and PayPal accepted. Prepaid appointments only.
