How To Become VERY Confident Using Conversational Hypnosis

One big question I get is how you can get confident as a hypnotherapist, whether you're starting, or you want to improve your skill.

The first is to understand the importance of being paid for your services as a hypnotherapist instead of giving away free sessions.

It's very, very hard to become a confident hypnotherapist if you're giving away free sessions because paid sessions are the key to becoming extremely confident. We all know that a client must be committed to the change, and when it is for free - clients don't care about the outcome (let's be honest).

Thus, there is no breakthrough, your confidence takes a big hit, and you start to doubt your unique skill set.

If there were one thing I would rely on, even beyond not prepping for a session and not worrying about hypnotic suggestions, it would be this; learn how to investigate a client's problem correctly by understanding their conclusions and root cause statements.

I've said this so many times in videos.

You can have the best regressions, tell the best hypnotic stories, have the best revivifications, and have the best visualizations in the world.

But if you are doing it from the point of view of the wrong problem (a client's conclusion and guess), which is the symptom? What's the point?

The best thing you can do to become confident is to learn how to ask the right questions. Listen for unconscious moments. Learn how to decipher the difference between conclusions and real root cause problems.

This skill is why we have students right now that can do $2500 stop smoking sessions in 15 minutes with complete success.

They can help treat childhood trauma from 20, 30, and 40 years ago of 20, 30, and 40 years of trauma and abuse and get it done in about half an hour or so.

And we documented these things on our YouTube channel and testimonials.

I'm not saying this to hype this all up. This is all true. And if you're wondering how the hell they are doing that so quickly? It's because they understand conclusions, symptoms and hypnotic principles instead of scripts and techniques which boast a one-size fits all scenario - which in reality, never works.

This is why you need to understand hypnotic principles - not hypnotic techniques (scripts, language patterns, regressions etc.). You need to know how to conduct the perfect hypnotic interview (this is not an intake interview) - which all hypnotherapists should learn for understanding the root cause is the sole key and the holy grail of becoming an excellent hypnotherapist and being known out of the industry.

If there's one thing, I could rely on to become a confident hypnotherapist, remembering these things.

95% of what your client tells you is a conclusion. You don't have to listen to it.

The other thing you need to learn is to decipher the difference between conscious information, which is just a guess.

And unconscious information, which is the real root cause, the real golden juicy stuff that you need to hear as a therapist to break and untie those knots (a client's real problem)

Also, realize that when you ask a client what their problem is, they will tell you their conclusions and guesses.

They're going to tell you what they think the problem is.

And as long as you remember those couple of principles as stated above, going into a session, you'll notice a dramatic speed and dramatic evolution as a confident hypnotherapist,

Most hypnotherapists, coaches, and NLPs spend so much time spinning around the symptom.

If you have to see your client more than once or twice, three times or even five times, this proves you are hitting a client's conclusions repeatedly (thus, the breakthrough takes longer). I even see having to see a stop-smoking client for 12 sessions.

Why? The only reason that can exist is because you're spinning around the symptom and believing the guesses your client is making about what they think the problem is (remember, smoking, anxiety, money blocks or relationship problems are all symptoms.

When a client says, “I want to quit smoking”, remember, that's their conclusion and is not the problem you are fixing (so tear up your stop smoking script)

Remember that this is a tremendous mindset shift, and most hypnotherapists will struggle with this - even though they know deep down about symptoms but continue to write the scripts and use fast action techniques that only attack the symptom. Conclusions are what your client will use to describe their problems.

Learn to decipher the difference between conscious and unconscious information and conclusions, and you'll see your transformations in your client happen at lightning speed.
