RTT® & Hypnotherapy

Hypnotherapy sessions are treated with respect, discretion and strict confidentiality, and nothing is ever shared without prior consent. All client data is kept strictly confidential. All notes are kept in secure files when not in use, and recordings are archived on a secure server. Confidentiality will only be broken for legal or safety reasons, including, but not limited to: you are about to, or have recently, cause(d) harm to yourself, others, or to children.

Hypnosis works at the alpha frequency of the brain. This is a relaxed state of consciousness between waking and sleeping. By working at this relaxed frequency, suggestions are more readily assimilated by the individual. Although hypnosis has been controversial, most clinicians now agree it can be a powerful, effective therapeutic technique for a wide range of conditions, including pain, anxiety and mood disorders. Hypnosis can also help people change their habits, such as quitting smoking.

A session is typically 70-90 minutes in length. I suggest that you allow a 2-hour window for our time together, as occasionally, a session can run over.

One session costs £400, which includes an intake and consultation call (30-50 mins), an RTT® session (60-120 mins), a 21-day personalised transformation recording, and follow-up support (including check-ins). For more complex issues requiring a further 2-3 sessions, a separate price package is offered.

When you are in the hypnotic state, you feel safe and profoundly relaxed. As moments of your life are examined, you feel safe to experience your emotions.

Hypnosis is not advised for individuals with epilepsy, schizophrenia, etc. Alcohol and certain drugs will impact the efficacy of the session; other impediments might have to do with repressed memories.

No one can make you behave in any manner you don't want to, or make you believe something you know is false. It is a misconception that you are under the complete control of a hypnotist. You continue to be you, even when you choose hypnosis to modify your behaviour and/or beliefs.

Most likely not. Please make every effort to be well rested prior to our session. Your participation is needed to obtain optimal results. That said, some people have fallen asleep during the recording portion of the session, which is an appropriate time to do so. At the end of the recording, I bring you out of the hypnotic state.

Yes. The session will not alter your memory of events. However, you may find that your new perspective and understanding of the issue being addressed may change how you reflect on those events.

Absolutely — the hypnosis techniques I use are the safest in the world and the training I received was of the highest quality. You enter hypnosis through a deep relaxation technique. You may experience intense emotions but I am fully trained and experienced to support you.

Your participation is required for the success of the hypnosis session. You'll be in a deeply relaxed state, but still able to respond to my questions. Your mind knows exactly what events shaped your current belief/habit, and the significance you attached to those moments, whether you consciously remember them or not. By relaxing and allowing your mind to drift to those scenes, you ensure that the new understanding and perspective of what was in your life is easily incorporated and also allows the reinforcement of your stated goals from our session.

Addressing emotional issues can sometimes feel overwhelming. I provide a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere you can relax completely in, whether we work online or in person. If you appear to have a very strong emotional reaction to what is discovered, I will remind you that you are reviewing these moments, not reliving them. I will also direct you to pull away from the intensity of the scene and review it with a detached perspective. Your safety is most important to me. If it becomes necessary, I will bring you out of hypnosis.

Each individual experiences change differently. At the end of a session, some clients say they feel lighter, freer; some experience a stronger sense of self; most report that something shifted. Generally, clients know their session was successful when they experience the stimuli that previously unnerved them, and discover they are enjoying the freedom of their desired outcome.

Some people feel very emotional after a session and some feel very tired and sleep very heavily too. You may also experience inexplicable feelings of joy, happiness, contentment, like something has gone, shifted or changed but you just can't put your finger on it. Occasionally, there is an adjunct issue that is discovered. Your original recording may likely be effective for any subsequent issues, and our follow-up conversations will also serve to help clarify things. However, an additional session to address the issue may be necessary.

After your session is finished, you will have received your personal recording, reinforcing your desired positive outcomes. It is important for you to listen to this recording daily for a minimum of 21 days for lasting results. You can listen to the recording as you're falling asleep each night. Doing so easily incorporates and reinforces your changes. Your brain will process the information as you drift off to sleep.

Yes. Make sure that you are in a safe, quiet place where you won't be interrupted for approximately 15-20 minutes. Ensure you are not driving or operating any machinery.

After your session, I will contact you around Day 10 to see how you're doing. You may also contact me should any questions or concerns arise during the initial 21-day period. I will also be contacting you after 21 days to schedule a review of how you are feeling and how you are getting on.

The information, techniques, methods and recommendations by Charlotte Coe are not intended to substitute for the diagnosis and care by a qualified physician/GP, nor to encourage the treatment of illness by persons not recognisably qualified. If you use hypnosis and are under medical care for any condition, do not make any adjustments to any prescribed medication without the approval of your doctor. If in any doubt, you should seek your GP's advice. Please note that hypnosis alone is no guarantee of success. The client needs to want the change and be open and motivated to change via the use of hypnosis.

There is a 48-hour cancellation policy. I can be flexible up to 48 hours before your session. Within 48 hours, I will try my best to fill your spot so that we can reschedule, otherwise it must remain paid. You will be notified immediately should an appointment need to be changed or cancelled in the event of an emergency, in which circumstance you will be fully refunded and your appointment rescheduled at the earliest possible time.

If you arrive more than 15 minutes late for your session, your appointment will be cancelled and you will be charged the full fee. Hypnotherapy sessions are structured, and a delay of 15 minutes or more does not allow enough time to complete a session.
