Transparent Pricing
My fee for a one-hour session is $150 per visit, or $300 for a three-session package (you save $150). These are the only fees you will pay—no hidden costs, no surprise charges, and no additional fees of any kind.
Secure Payment
Cards are never stored in my system, and you cannot be charged without manually purchasing sessions yourself. Each session or package must be purchased by you, ensuring complete control over all transactions and eliminating any possibility of unexpected charges.

Background Verification
I voluntarily undergo comprehensive annual background screening through Checkr, a leading third-party verification service. My 2025 screening returned a "Clear" status across all categories, including: identity verification, criminal background verification, sex offender registry searches, and national security database checks. This voluntary commitment demonstrates my dedication to maintaining the highest standards of professional conduct and ensuring a safe environment for all clients.
Client Code of Conduct
Clients who exhibit disrespectful or inappropriate behavior may have their session terminated immediately and may be declined for future appointments. This ensures that our work together can be conducted in an atmosphere of safety, trust, and mutual respect.
Client Responsibility
Results from hypnotherapy vary from person to person. The success of our work together depends greatly on your commitment and follow-through. You are responsible for your own well-being during and after our sessions, including making health choices and decisions. While many clients report positive outcomes, I cannot guarantee specific results.
Technical Requirements
For virtual sessions, you will need (1) a reliable internet connection, (2) a device with a camera and microphone, (3) a private, quiet space free from interruptions, (4) Zoom application installed on your device (or join from your browser).

IMPORTANT LIMITATIONS
Scope of Practice Limitations
I do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical, mental health, or psychological conditions. The services I provide are non-therapeutic and complementary to, not a replacement for, any medical or psychological care you may be receiving. Hypnosis is not intended to be a substitute for treatment from qualified professionals. Always consult with your healthcare provider regarding your medical conditions and treatments.
When Hypnosis May Not Be Appropriate
Hypnotherapy may not be appropriate for individuals with certain conditions, including but not limited to: severe mental health disorders, active psychosis, dissociative disorders, or other conditions that might be adversely affected by hypnotic techniques. If you have any of these conditions or are unsure if hypnotherapy is appropriate for you, please consult with your healthcare provider before proceeding with sessions. If I determine that a client's needs exceed my scope of practice, I will provide appropriate referrals to licensed professionals.
