A companion is someone or something you spend a lot of time with, so I wanted the Hypnotherapist’s Companion to address therapists’ real-world concerns. And to answer the questions that arise as you run an ethical hypnotherapy practice.

So, for the ‘big finale’ I asked real life therapists in practice what questions they wanted answering.

It’s my version of a kind of ‘hypnotic agony aunt’ and some of the answers might surprise you.. They include:

  • How can I get the most out of hypnotherapy supervision?
  • Can too much empathy get you down? (And if so, what can I do about it?)
  • Am I losing my touch? (A crisis of confidence.)
  • What can I do when I get enquiries that don’t lead to bookings?
  • An ex-client, who came to me for weight loss and actually put on more weight, is praising me on Facebook.
  • A client wants me to see her 10-year-old son. I have no experience in treating children.
  • I am a woman living alone and working from home. I only want to see female clients. Can I legally do this?
  • I have been seeing six clients a day and I’m finding it difficult to switch off. How can I improve things?
  • How much self-care is enough? And how can I incorporate self-care into my routine without feeling guilty?
  • Can I balance being empathetic with being an effective business person?
