Terms and Conditions
Thank you for choosing eaton hypnotherapy. I use Solution focused hypnotherapy (SFH) that focuses on the future and positive solutions, using modern techniques that research has shown to be extremely effective. It is a gentle combination of Psychotherapy, which uses elements of Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and relaxing, pleasant hypnosis. Sessions are a collaborative therapeutic alliance where I will work with you to help you to identify and focus on the changes you want to achieve.
​
Importantly, change happens because you want it to and you are prepared to take the necessary steps to make it happen. However, you will be pleased to know that you have all the resources within you to achieve the changes for the future you want!
​
Therapeutic alliance
Our therapeutic alliance is based on mutual respect. Your commitment to these sessions is essential therefore if you regularly fail to attend sessions or regularly cancel and rearrange sessions, I will have a discussion with you about whether this is something you are committed to.
Please note that if I am subjected to abuse by you, I may end our therapy with no notice.
Intellectual property
Any resources sent to you as part of our work together remains my intellectual property. You should not disclose, communicate, reproduce or distribute any materials and resources provided during delivery of our sessions or our work together.
​
International clients
Please note that I am based in the UK and as such am governed by UK laws.
​
What if I’m running late?
Please do your best to let me know if you are running late. I run a busy practice and schedule client appointments back to back. If you are late, your appointment will still run in the allocated slot.
​
What if I need to rearrange my session?
Please be considerate when cancelling an appointment and where possible give at least 48 hours’ notice. If less than 24 hours’ notice is given, the appointment fee will be charged in full.
​
If I need to rearrange a session, I will let you know at my earliest opportunity and trust that you will approach our sessions with the same ethos.
​
Payment
Payment will be expected directly after the session via bank transfer or PayPal.

The CPHT HPD course is nationally accredited by the National Council for Further Education (NCFE), National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH), Association for Solution Focused Hypnotherapy (AfSFH), General Hypnotherapy Standards Council (GHSC), and the National Board for Modern Psychotherapy (NBMP). I am a member of, and therefore regulated by AfSFH and the NCH. I must adhere to their strict code of conduct and ethics, including having a recognised qualification, regular Continual Professional Development (CPD) training, and having regular supervisions with a regulated and qualified supervisor. I also must have professional insurance cover, for which I am insured by the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FHT) who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
