About Hypnosis

Does it work?

Oh, yes it does.

​

What does hypnosis feels like?

It feels different for everyone. Some people feel a floating sensation, some do not. Others may feel sleepy, some do not. Most people feel relaxed and at ease. The level of hypnosis is very light as you are expected to engage and respond to questions. Regardless of what it feels like – it’s working. I promise.

 

Can I get “stuck” in hypnosis?

No! You have complete control the whole time. You can talk, move your body, get a tissue, even get up and leave (I’ve had clients who had to stop to pee!). If the session is over Zoom and our call gets disconnected you may drift into sleep if you’re really relaxed, but eventually you’ll notice that you’re not hearing my voice and open your eyes.

 

Will you make me do something with which I am not comfortable?

No. You are in control of yourself at all times. This is not stage hypnosis, this is hypnosis for therapeutic purposes and you will be in control, responding, thinking and talking and making decisions as you usually do. 

 

How does it work?

Hypnosis is not magic – it’s science! It works by creating a burst of brain waves that are the same as when you’re in REM. That’s what allows you to access the subconscious mind. It’s very easy and anyone can do it, you’ll see for yourself when you do it too!

 

How do I prepare for my hypnosis session?

Make sure you are alone and will remain undisturbed for the whole session. A charged computer, a glass of water and some tissues, within reach, is all you'll need.

Prepare to listen to your personal recording for 21 days after the session. 40% of the change you will experience comes from this recording.

​

What can I expect to feel?

Expect to feel relaxed and be ready to chat with your eyes closed. Much like a guided visualisation you'll be asked to picture things I describe. It’s easy! We induce a state of relaxation with eye movements, so that your brain waves move to an alpha state and you are calm and alert. You don't have to do anything, think of anything, know anything, just relax.

​

How will I feel afterwards?

Everyone is different and depending on how deeply you work, you might come out of your session bouncing out of your skin with excitement or you may feel a sense of reflection or wonder. You may continue to discover even more about yourself & your programming post session. Whether you feel excited or reflective, you will always leave the session with a sense of understanding, freedom and empowerment.

 

How can it work it just one-three sessions*?

Hypnosis allows direct access to the 'reasons' we do what we do and react the way we react, saving you hours even years in talk therapy, searching for the source. The source of our issues are usually based on an age-appropriate understandings. When you're able to observe yourself and these understandings with your adult understanding and compassion, it's relatively easy to let them go and move onto installing new beliefs, rewiring your brain, that will help you move forward.

 

Sometimes it can take more than three sessions per issue but as a rule most issues take between one-three sessions. I don't want to waste my time or yours which is why I treat this way.

 

*Please note long term burn-out, depression, trauma, anxiety & weight issues can take several sessions.

 

When will I start to see changes?

There are three types of change from Rapid Transformational Therapy – every person is different:

• Immediate: You feel a massive shift right away – immediate changes in your physiology, thoughts and behaviours right in the session.

• Incremental: You see subtle, consistent shifts every day, or over time.

• Retroactive: You don’t see the shifts right away and only when you look back do you notice how much you've changed for the better.

 

You may experience a combination of the three.

​

What is EFT?

EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), also known as tapping, is a great stress reducer. It helps to reduce stress, fears, anxiety, emotional and physical distress. EFT/tapping helps to take the body from a state of fight-or-flight to one of rest.

You don’t necessarily have to be in an anxiety-producing experience to put EFT/tapping into practice. It can be done by simply thinking about what makes you anxious or afraid.

 

How long does it take?

• Each Rapid Transformational Therapy® session lasts around 1.5-2 hours. Block 2.5 hours in your schedule so you don´t feel rushed.

• The first tapping session is always 45 minutes. Should you need another session after your first EFT tapping session, I offer 30 minutes top up sessions which only takes 30 minutes as we already know each other and can start immediately.

​

Do you do single RTT sessions?

Ave Munde Therapy doesn't offer single RTT sessions. I always offer a 30 day programme. Why? To make sure that you get the most out of your investment. That's why you can always contact me when you need additional support and that's why I contact you on a regular basis too.

​

What does RTT/EFT cost?

Contact me for details about the rates for the packages. All prices are excluding VAT. See "Packages"  to see what's included.

 

Custom packages (such as multiple sessions, a programme with RTT and EFT and coaching, couples therapy) are available too.

 

Giving back to society is very important to me. I have received a lot myself and love to pay it forward. I also strongly believe therapy should be available to everyone. Not just to the ones with deeper pockets.

Therefore I offer package discounts and payment plans to suit your needs and budget.
