The client will be charged the full non-refundable fee on the day of the booking if they have canceled one session in the past.Forty-Eight (48) hours’ notice to cancel or change an appointment is required. Failure to provide notice will result in a charge of 100% of the session fee.

    We suggest you think of our services as something that you will pay for personally. That will both protect your privacy and help you value the work you are doing fully. In general, insurance companies are not open to covering hypnotic services, and we caution you not to expect them to do so.

  • Our Approach:

    We sincerely believe that we all harness incredible untapped power within our minds. Our practice of hypnosis is designed to tap into that power and assist people in using that power to better their lives. We are not “medical” or “psychological” professionals and as a result do not work with physical or mental disease without a referral from a licensed medical or psychological professional.

  • Our Commitment to You:

    We stand in an active role of solidarity with people with marginalized identities. We are committed to anti-racism, anti-homophobia, anti-transphobia, anti-ableism, and anti-fat bias. Everyone comes from different walks of life, and we consider this a strength, not a weakness. Our offices employ staff who promote a positive and inclusive environment for all clients. All are welcomed, respected, and valued here. Together, we are claiming the world we want to be in with an ongoing commitment to enhancing equity, inclusion, and diversity. We are listening to the pain, anger, and exhaustion generated by our ignorance and we pledge to do better with the money we spend, the actions we take, the education we seek, and the safe and brave space we hold.
