To every 10 enquiries I receive, at least 2 are exceptions, where I can not or do not work. It’s important to get the correct therapist for the right job, (You wouldn’t see a dentist for a problem with your toes). So although there are many problems we help people with, there are equally health issues which are exceptions and I do not work with hypnosis or need specialist help.
So these are the exceptions for which Penny does not work:
- Children under 16 – unless it’s a specific phobia like dogs or spiders, or exam stress based.
- ADHD – unless they are managing it with medication. No management is likely to increase anxiety when under trance conditions.
- Asperger’s syndrome – Please seek specialist treatment.
- Epilepsy
- Schizophrenia
- Bi-Polar with psychotic episodes.
- Hallucinations.
- Heroin addiction.
- Excessive alcohol dependence.
Also please bear in mind issues around panic attacks or agoraphobia if you smoke. The chances are you will need to stop smoking are 100%. If you want to reduce the panic, then I am happy to work with you to first give up smoking before addressing anything else. I have in the past visited clients in their homes if agoraphobia is an issue, however, if the environment is not right for therapy, I insist that some action be taken towards working online or in the clinic.
For further information please feel free to email Penny.
