Hypnotherapy Session Terms & Conditions
In these terms and conditions, the “hypnotherapist” and/or “I” refer to Garry Smith (also known as hypno/therapy).
On booking your appointment, you will be given confirmation of costs, cancellation policy, payment details, etc., which you should read and make sure you are happy with. Along with your payment, you will be asked to give your contact details. This will then form an agreement between you and the hypnotherapist for your therapy.
THERAPY
Successful sessions rely on your commitment and motivation. When you agree to partake in your therapy sessions, you, as the client, are considered “co-therapist”, which means you agree to be fully involved and committed to the process, which may include homework if necessary. This also includes attending your sessions and arriving on time.
You accept that treatment is offered based on the information you supply, which you represent and warrant to be complete and truthful.
Ongoing sessions will always be discussed with you, and you will have the right to express your preferences regarding your treatment plan and timeframe.
You are free to end or withdraw from therapy at any time. The cost of any sessions paid for in advance but not used will be refunded on request, subject to my cancellation policy. Refunds will reflect the actual price paid if special offers have been used.
SESSIONS
Your hypnotherapy session will last approximately 1 hour. Please allow yourself enough time for this. If you are being collected, please make sure your lift arrives on time, as the premises may need to be closed at the end of your session.
If you are running late, please let the hypnotherapist know as soon as possible. He will do his best to make a full session available, but this often depends on appointments subsequent to your booking and so cannot be guaranteed. If your session needs to be curtailed due to your late arrival, then the session fee remains payable in full.
Online hypnosis sessions are also available in some circumstances. Please enquire for more details if you require this.
FEES
The fees are £120.00 per session (1 hour). The fee will be agreed before your first session, and payment will need to be made at least 48 hours prior to the session starting.
Payment methods are by BACS (Bankers' Automated Clearing System).
CANCELLATION POLICY
Please try to allow at least 24-hours notice if you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment, so that the time slot may be offered to someone else. The charge for sessions cancelled with less than 24-hours notice will be up to 50% of the full session fee.
If you wish to cancel, then please phone or email immediately.
The hypnotherapist reserves the right to cancel an appointment at his sole discretion. This will only be in exceptional circumstances, and as much notice as is possible will be given. The hypnotherapist shall not be liable for any financial or other consequences of the cancellation.
A “no show” will also attract a charge of 50% the arranged fee.
REFUND POLICY
Hypnotherapy services are not eligible for refunds as the time has been allocated. However, the hypnotherapist may offer a free session if there is an issue or concern with the session.
The hypnotherapist facilitates change by guiding the use of hypnotic suggestions. The hypnotherapist cannot control or force the client to change or do anything they do not want to do. At the end of each hypnotherapy session, the hypnotherapist will ask if the client is satisfied. If the client feels doubt or apprehension during or immediately following a hypnotherapy session, it is in the client’s best interest to communicate with the hypnotherapist as soon as possible.
If the hypnotherapist has any concerns during the client session, they will be discussed with the client to determine the recommended course of treatment. The client has the option to take the recommendation or to not go ahead with future sessions. If the client has paid in advance for hypnotherapy sessions, the client can choose not to proceed and will be refunded the amount paid in advance.
Although Garry Smith (the hypnotherapist) has had great results, results cannot be guaranteed and may vary based on the mindset of the client, the desire to change and the commitment to follow instructions during and after the session.
