- Personalized Care Without Constraints: Insurance companies often impose limitations on the types and durations of treatments they cover. By opting for private pay, we can provide personalized and flexible hypnotherapy sessions tailored to your specific needs, without being restricted by insurance guidelines. This ensures you receive the most effective and individualized care possible.
- Enhanced Privacy and Confidentiality: When you use insurance, your treatment details may become part of your permanent medical record, which can be accessed by various entities. By choosing private pay, you maintain a higher level of privacy and confidentiality, ensuring that your treatment information remains between you and your therapist.
- No Surprises or Hidden Costs: Insurance can sometimes come with unexpected out-of-pocket expenses, such as copays, deductibles, and uncovered services. By paying privately, you have clear and upfront pricing, allowing you to plan your finances without worrying about surprise costs. This transparency helps you focus on your healing journey without financial stress.
Insurance reimbursement for hypnotherapy services varies greatly depending on your individual insurance plan and provider. Some insurance companies may offer partial reimbursement for out-of-network mental health services, including hypnotherapy, while others may not cover it at all. We recommend the following steps to determine your eligibility for reimbursement:
- Check with Your Insurance Provider: Contact your insurance company directly to inquire about their policies on reimbursing hypnotherapy services. Ask if they cover out-of-network providers and what the requirements are for submitting claims.
- Obtain Necessary Documentation: If your insurance provider offers reimbursement, we can provide you with detailed therapy statements and receipts that include all necessary information, such as dates of service, treatment codes, and payment details. This documentation is typically required when submitting a claim for reimbursement.
- Submit a Claim: Follow your insurance provider’s process for submitting out-of-network claims. This usually involves filling out a claim form and attaching the therapy statements we provide. Be sure to keep copies of everything you submit for your records.
While we cannot guarantee reimbursement, many of our clients have successfully received partial reimbursements by following these steps. It’s always best to verify your benefits and coverage directly with your insurance provider.
Hypnosis is a hyper-focused state of mind or trance state in which your conscious mind (5% of the mind) is able to communicate to your subconscious mind (95% of the mind). Since most human behaviors occur at a subconscious level, hypnosis along with evidence-based psychotherapy techniques are by far the most powerful modality/tool to modify thoughts, feelings, and behavior.
Hypnosis is a completely natural state to which you transition several times a day. Some examples of hypnosis are:
- Zoning out as you drive yourself home but do not recall all the turns or stop lights
- Manifesting true emotions and feelings when watching a film on screen
- Being so deeply invested in a movie/book/video game that time seems to forward itself at a very fast and accelerated pace
These are all examples of being in a state of hypnotic trance. Revibe Therapy can help you learn more about hypnosis.
The combination of hypnosis and psychotherapy is often referred to as Hypnotherapy. Imagine having the traditional techniques and tools used in counseling/psychotherapy with the combination of hypnosis (the hyperperfused trance state). Allowing your mind to be in a trance equips the therapeutic sessions with a much more powerful advantage, as the mind is peacefully focused, aligned, and clear to receive positive change. Hypnotherapy is used to rebalance your mind by influencing changes directly to the subconscious instead of relying on the conscious mind. Four therapy sessions in hypnosis may be equivalent to the work of various years doing weekly sessions via traditional counseling/psychotherapy.
In the mental health field, Hypnotherapy is used to treat phobias, anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger management, stress reduction, personality disorders, twitch disorders, sleep disorders, teeth grinding, sexual problems, alcoholism, drug compulsivity, smoking cessation, speech disorders, food compulsivity, weight/fat loss, chronic pain, regression therapy, self-esteem, memory/concentration improvement, and trauma/PTSD. Many evidenced-based psychotherapies, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, can be used in conjunction with hypnosis to make behavioral changes much faster, effective, precise, and permanent. We offer expert hypnotherapy techniques at our offices.
This is a definite yes. Hypnosis in recent years has been recognized as an accepted medical therapy to deal with many medical and psychological conditions. Many universities such as Stanford and Harvard have conducted clinical studies in hypnosis and found that hypnosis does in fact alter the brain’s neuro-bio-chemistry patterns and can be used for a multitude of conditions.
The subconscious mind grasps all of our programming, much like a computer. You can be aware in your conscious mind that you want to make a behavioral change and have the willpower to change yourself, but willpower is not infinite on a daily basis, and if your computer is programmed to keep doing what you have been doing, it will be extremely hard to make long-term change unless you change the programming. That is exactly what Hypnotherapy will help you achieve.
During the Hypnotic trance, the mind empowers people to activate neural circuits that are otherwise hidden. This circuitry can activate greater comfort for pain relief, greater mental focus for certain activities, and greater self-esteem. This places you in a much better position to modify thoughts, feelings, and behavior as long as the hypnotized individual wants these changes to happen.
Each hypnotherapy session at Revibe Therapy lasts 45-55 minutes.
Hypnotherapy can help treat the following: trauma & PTSD, compulsivity rehabilitation, weight loss, smoking cessation, anxiety, depression, ADHD, life coaching, anger management, personality disorders, vocational rehabilitation, pain management, erectile dysfunction, test anxiety, panic disorders, twitch disorders, phobias (such as fear of flying, fear of heights, and others), teeth grinding, and sleep disorders.
Medical Conditions must first be ruled out and treated by a qualified physician who can, at their own discretion, prescribe Hypnotherapy as an aiding form of treatment.
Hypnosis is a very peaceful, tranquil, and serene feeling. Your body is tremendously relaxed but your mind is focused in the present moment. You will feel a sense of renewal and feel reinvigorated after a Hypnotherapy session, especially with the experts at Revibe Therapy.
Most definitely yes. The human mind can never be compromised, and the only way to get hypnotized is to want to get hypnotized since all hypnosis is self-hypnosis. The Hypnotherapist is merely a coach who is teaching you how to hypnotize your mind — all the work will be done by you. Hypnosis actually gives you more control over your mind since your subconscious accounts for the majority of it. During hypnosis it is impossible for you to do something that is outside of your moral values or cognition; in other words, you will not do anything you do not want to do.
Every individual is hypnotizable due to hypnosis being a natural state that humans go into and out of several times during the day even though the subjective experience varies to each individual. There are three types of suggestibility (i.e. how easily a person can be hypnotized):
- Physical Suggestible (moderate to hypnotize) — A Physical suggestible individual is good at following algorithmic instructions, does well academically, can learn theoretical information quickly, and is consistent in decision making. A Physical suggestible is about 30-40% of the world population.
- Emotional Suggestible (high difficulty to hypnotize) — An Emotional suggestible individual is very analytical, especially when attempting to process new information. This individual will question the what, how, when, and where to just about everything on a subconscious and conscious level. This individual may challenge the hypnotic process due to the natural way of questioning new information to a high degree. They are still Hypnotizable, just that it may need more technicality and skill to hypnotize this individual to an appropriate trance level to acquire appropriate entrance for suggestions. This individual is the majority of the population 50-60% of the world population.
- Somnambulist Suggestible (easily hypnotizable) — A Somnambulist suggestible individual is more likely to comply with the hypnotist due to their profound hybrid suggestibility of almost 50% physical and also around 50% emotional. The Somnambulist is most likely to talk in their dreams and even walk during sleep, and is able to learn quickly and analyze simultaneously. A Somnambulist suggestibility is the candidate usually solicited at magic or hypnotic demonstration on stage to mimic an animal or experience temporary amnesia. This individual is only 5-10% of the world population. Although this type of hypnosis is real, it is used for entertainment purposes, not clinical hypnotherapy.
Every individual has physical and emotional percentages; for example, if you are 60% Physical suggestible, then you are 40% Emotional suggestible, and vice versa. If you are 60% Emotional suggestible, then you are 40% Physical suggestible. If you are close to the half and half range, you are most likely a Somnambulist suggestible individual.
The answer is, all individuals who willingly want to participate in and benefit from hypnosis regardless of suggestibility type. These are the best candidates. Knowing what suggestibility type you fall under only guides the hypnotist to execute the skills and techniques that best fits you, so that you can experience an optimal level of well-being and self-improvement. The fact that you are reading this makes you an excellent candidate for Hypnotherapy.
Hypnotherapy and Cognitive Hypnotherapy both aim to help individuals manage and overcome emotional dysregulation, such as anxiety, by focusing on regression and progression techniques. However, Cognitive Hypnotherapy goes beyond the traditional scope of hypnotherapy, offering a more comprehensive and holistic approach to mental health and personal growth. Here’s why Cognitive Hypnotherapy might be the better choice for you:
- Integration of Behavioral Factors: Cognitive Hypnotherapy not only addresses your thoughts and emotions but also integrates crucial behavioral aspects that significantly impact your mental well-being. By focusing on behaviors such as dopamine management, discipline, and enjoying the journey rather than obsessing over the goal, this approach ensures a more balanced and fulfilling life.
- Enhanced Techniques for Self-Mastery: This advanced form of hypnotherapy empowers you to take control of various aspects of your life. It teaches you how to control what you can and let go of what you can’t, optimize your sleep schedule, and maintain a healthy work-life balance. These additional techniques help you develop a stronger sense of self-control and resilience, leading to more sustainable and long-term improvements in your mental health.
- Holistic and Personalized Approach: Cognitive Hypnotherapy offers a personalized treatment plan that considers the unique interplay between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By addressing the root causes of your issues and promoting healthy habits and behaviors, it provides a more comprehensive solution that not only alleviates symptoms but also promotes overall well-being and personal growth.
- Scientific and Practical Focus: Cognitive Hypnotherapy is grounded in both psychological principles and practical applications. It utilizes evidence-based techniques to help you achieve your goals, manage stress, and improve your overall quality of life. This scientific approach ensures that the treatment is not only effective but also tailored to your specific needs and circumstances.
In summary, while traditional hypnotherapy effectively manages thoughts and emotions, Cognitive Hypnotherapy takes it a step further by incorporating behavioral factors, promoting self-mastery, and providing a holistic and personalized approach. By choosing Cognitive Hypnotherapy, you invest in a more comprehensive and effective method to achieve lasting mental and emotional well-being.
Hypnotherapy is by far superior in Depth and Speed to any other psychological modality. Hypnotherapy is so powerful at uncovering the subconscious that one Hypnotherapy session, in most cases, has the equivalent result to what in traditional psychotherapy or counseling may take months or even years. This makes sense since your mind is mostly subconscious territory (95% if not more).
The subconscious mind contains everything that has ever happened to you. For this reason, when you use Hypnotherapy to access these moments in your life that have significantly impacted you, the awareness of your true issues surfaces clearly, without the need of any defense mechanism. With this new powerful awareness comes the ability to recognize the true cause of your unwanted behaviors that you have decided to change for yourself. This ability now places you in the best position possible for you to modify and change your thoughts, emotions, and behavior, almost effortlessly.
It is actually backwards: people with higher level IQ have a more amplified hypnotic ability. This is because higher IQ means you will be easily creative and proactive in understanding algorithmic instructions, therefore making the hypnotic experience much more pleasant and effortless. We test you for suggestibility type in our first session, after your Revibe Therapy Consultation.
If you have a history of a psychiatric condition(s), this should be discussed with the clinician on the first encounter to make sure that you are capable of allowing your mind to be borrowed for hypnotherapy. Hypnosis is a consensual state, where you are working in partnership with the hypnotist to achieve your goals. You are in full control of your cognition and in no way are you asleep during the hypnotic process.
No, this is mostly seen at a magician presentation or stage hypnotist shows and is used mostly for entertainment purposes; this is also popular on television. This is the type of hypnosis where you will most likely see swinging watches or someone imitating a dog or a chicken on command; this is being done for entertainment purposes and not clinical hypnosis.You may be able to identify that the person participating with the Hypnotist is fully aware and agrees to participate in doing the suggested tricks. By process of elimination, the hypnotist will only select the most easily hypnotizable participants from the crowd — mainly, a somnambulist suggestible.
Somnambulist suggestible individuals also like to be the life of the party, or the entertainer in a group, so it is more likely for a somnambulist suggestible to want to comply with most of the stage hypnosis activities. Hypnotherapy is very different from stage hypnosis. You are completely alert and in full control of your mind and body while in the hypnotic state. You can hear, speak, and even walk around. Your body is relaxed and comfortable. You will never be asked to disclose any secrets or do anything you do not want to do. At Revibe Therapy, hypnosis is strictly used as a healing modality.
Absolutely not! You have much more control over your mind during hypnosis; even your five senses are enhanced during the hypnotic trance. You cannot be hypnotized unwillingly, and you cannot be prompted to do something that is outside of your moral code or say/reveal anything you do not want to.
No, you are capable of coming out of hypnosis at any moment. Your free will is never compromised during this process. The Hypnotist walks you through going into and out of hypnosis, but this process can be interrupted by you at any moment. During hypnosis, you can move yourself around to adjust your comfort or perform any other light movements while remaining uninterrupted in your hypnotic trance during session.
Even though we do not accept insurance, there are some insurance companies that will reimburse you for a portion of your sessions. Most of the insurance companies will cover 50% to 80% percent of the cost of individual therapy if treated by licensed professionals such as ourselves. In every session we provide you with an electronic receipt for you to submit to your insurance company in case they do cover hypnotherapy.
In the first session we discuss your Revibe Therapy intake form which we will discuss in order to address the issue or issues you want to focus on, and what your goals are. We will then have a brief conversation about hypnosis and how hypnosis impacts the mind. We will then conduct some simple tests that will help us identify your suggestibility, which is how you learn and accept suggestions.
No it does not. Hypnosis, however, does place you in a much better position for you to take control of your mind to make the necessary adjustments, modifications, and changes that you have wanted for yourself.
No it is not. Since in this state you are even more aware of your surroundings, cognition, and feelings, you will be able to act accordingly to any situation that requires your immediate attention, even if it means interrupting the session and emerging without the Hypnotist’s instructions.
