How does referral process work?

Call 888-290-3972 or email patient's diagnosis, contact information and your fax number.  For physician based referrals we will fax you the consent form, and then contact patient to review their needs and prepare them for sessions.

What do my patients have to do?

During initial phone contact your patient is directed to the Office Visit  information page where they can download an intake form, listen to audio introduction to hypnosis and also view a client testimonial video. (Examples below)

Will my patients learn self-hypnosis?

Most definitely. In fact, Paul strongly believes that knowledge is power and has all of his clients learn and perform self-hypnosis prior to every session. When clients own the process their chance of success is greatly enhanced.

Will my patients receive a reinforcement tape? 

Paul's clients receive CD's which are more durable than cassette tapes and can also be uploaded into iPods which is a popular option for most of our clients.

What are your success rates?

A satisfaction survey is sent out 6 months after sessions, 85% of IBS clients are symptom free, 75% of smokers are smoke-free and 65% of obese clients have maintained their goals. Those open to the process, genuinely motivated and also committed to home reinforcement consistently do well. Video >>
