At the beginning of every treatment a thorough assessment will take place. During the first session the assessment  will allow to determine your individual goals of the treatment. The assessment  will also give an indication of how many sessions may be most beneficial. In addition the inital session  gives an opportunity to discuss any remaining questions you may have about hypnosis or the therapy approach. For some problems such as physical illnesses, the assessment session allows to discuss how hypnosis can be integrated into other treatment approaches. A referal letter from your treating physician or GP may be helpful in this situation.
