Disclaimer as to Non-Medical Nature of Services

The services rendered do not represent any form of medical or mental health care, and by law we may make no health benefit claims for our services.

A medical or mental health condition or disability, diagnosed or undiagnosed, is not a barrier to service but there may be times when hypnosis is not recommended. We reserve the right to deny service to anyone that is not considered suitable. If an alternative third party service is shared, this does not constitute medical advice, recommendation or endorsement. Any use of the word “hypnotherapy” or “therapeutic” is in common usage to distinguish hypnosis as an alternative, holistic or complimentary healing modality from hypnosis used for entertainment. It is not a representation that we offer mental health therapy. Use of the term “clinical” is not intended to represent medical licensure in the US, it is restricted to referencing the Post Graduate Certificate in Clinical Hypnotherapy obtained from the University of London in the United Kingdom and membership of the British Society of Clinical Hypnosis.
