Does Hypnotherapy really work using Zoom?

The COVID pandemic has changed so many aspects of our health care services, not the least of which is the rise of ‘Telehealth‘.
The simple definition of Telehealth is; “Having a consultation with a healthcare provider by phone or video call”.

Many of my clients still prefer to see me in my clinic and I understand, because clients often comment on “how comfortable and relaxing my magical hypnotherapy recliner feels.”  And as they listen to my voice, they feel like they are floating on a soft, cushiony cloud.

One of the positive things that has come out COVID isolating and working from home, is how we have gotten a solid grasp of communicating remotely through Zoom, Facetime, or any of the other systems available.

Many businesses now view this form of communicating, and  how it helps teams stay connected, as an effective way to tune into and be able to see each other on a regular basis.

It has made us consider that, at times, we need to throw out our old set ways of thinking, behaving and how we look at situations and to consider how we can learn through new methods.

Hypnotherapy via videoconferencing is actually very similar to sitting in my clinic and seeing me face to face.  The only requirement is, you need to find a quiet, place in your home, without  interruptions from phones,  children,  or other distractions. 

Of course, you don’t get to feel how comfortable my ‘magical’ recliner feels, but you have the added benefit of experiencing the comfort of your favourite lounge chair at home.  Or you could even be sitting propped up in your own bed surrounded by your pillows with your dog or cat sitting quietly beside you.
