Frequently
Asked Questions
What do you
charge for your services?
~
For basic Subconscious Therapy, rates vary depending on the services
offered.
Contact
Roger for specific pricing and arrangements.
~ Issue specific packages (Smoking
Cessation & Allergies) are $300 one-time charge, and are
guaranteed... If your issue isn't taken care of, you come back until
it is for free... If I can't help you after 6 sessions, you get your
money back!
~ I
will never let funds stop someone from receiving the help they
desire. I am open to bartering services, etc. It never
hurts to just ask!
Does
hypnotherapy, or other subconscious work take away my free choice?
~ Absolutely not. In
fact, if anything it gives you free-er choice, because you are able
to make choices and decisions without the distractions of the
conscious mind.
Am
I aware of what's happening during subconscious therapy?
~ Most people are
aware of everything that is said and done will undergoing this type
of therapy.
Is
subconscious therapy expensive?
~ It depends
what you call expensive. Everyone has different judgment
scales when it comes to money. However, when compared to the
price of regular cognitive behavioral therapy, over time you will
save a significant amount of money because of the lower number of
visits required for recovery or healing. The one difference,
and this is different with every client, is that this work is often
done through 2-5 hour long sessions. This may make it appear
to cost more, but when you compare the hourly cost as well as the
overall cost of treatment, you could save thousands over more
traditional forms of therapy.
Am
I unconscious during this work?
~ No. Just the
opposite is true. Usually, a client is more conscious during
this work than they are in their day to day lives. Sometimes,
a person falls asleep during deeper hypnosis, deep subconscious
work, and often during Reiki treatments. However, most of this
work is done with the client completely conscious. A client
will never be taken into a deep unconscious trance state without
their knowledge and consent.
What
are the credentials/training of your practitioners?
~ All of our
practitioners have completed extensive courses which meet or exceed
general standards of practice. They also hold many national
and international memberships and certifications and are continually
striving to enhance and further their education and skills.
For specific certifications, take a look at our About
LifeTrek page.
What
is a typical session like?
~ Part of the fun of
this work, is that it's different every time. Our
practitioners have a vast toolbox of techniques and skills that they
draw from depending on the work being done. With that said, a
general session is conducted in a quite, peaceful environment that
is conducive to healing and growth. It is imperative that the
client is comfortable and relaxed. The client can be sitting
in a chair, on the floor, in a recliner, beanbag, on a couch..
etc. After short discussion about the client's needs and
desires, the practitioner begins the healing process... this can
look many different ways. There is a lot of using your
imagination, visualizing, etc. If hypnosis is used, it can
look a variety of different ways. If Reiki techniques are
employed, the client is lying on a massage table, fully clothed, and
gets the opportunity to relax, and receive the healing energy
transferred through various hand placements. It is often more
relaxing than a massage.
How
long is a session?
~ A typical session
can be 1-3 hours. Depending on the need or the client however,
sessions can last up to 5 hours.
Is this stuff for real
or is it just my imagination?
~
We'll take two routes to answer this question... First,
Imagine you are holding a juicy, ripe, plump lemon. Take that lemon
(in your imagination, of course!) and slice into it with a
knife. See the juice squirting from the lemon as you slice
into it. You may even feel the juice spray your face, or
possibly feel the sting as some juice lands in your eye. Feel
the juice running over your fingers and onto the counter. Now
imagine taking a big piece of that juicy flesh and biting down on
it, filling your mouth with fresh, powerful lemon juice. Feel
the juice as it runs down your throat, and possibly down your
chin... Was the lemon "real" of course
not! Was your body's response to that lemon real? Our
thoughts, feelings, emotions, etc. are VERY real. Working with them
at the level in which they are stored will often bring feelings,
memories, events, etc. to the surface. A memory isn't
tangible, but it's very real! Second, there are critics of
this work who say that it's mostly make-believe, and can't possibly
have real results. These people have very little understanding
of the subconscious mind and how it works. The results
are very real, and long-lasting.
My religious leaders
or beliefs say that this isn't "good."
~
We would invite you and your religious leaders to attend one of our "Understanding
the Subconscious" workshops. Often it's simply a lack of information
that causes people to doubt this work, or anything else for that
matter! All of the people involved with LifeTrek are devoted Christians,
and many local religious leaders are referring members of their
congregations to Subconscious therapy because of the speed, and
powerful results in helping people overcome emotional issues,
marital challenges, addictions, etc. We would be happy to
discuss this issue at length with anyone who has concerns about it.
Can I be hypnotized to
do something I wouldn't normally do?
~
No. The subconscious mind will not allow you to do anything
contrary to your moral values. And more importantly, our
practitioners are bound by professional & ethical
standards. The work we do in a clinical setting is 100% geared
toward assisting our clients in overcoming challenges in their
lives, and reaching new heights. Not entertainment.
How long does this
therapy last?
~
Depending on the depth and number of the issues you want to
work on, this answer can vary drastically. We are not like
typical therapist, who will ask you to come in weekly for years... It's
all gauged on your progress. Some clients are good to go after
just a few visits, others may take a few months. It is all
dependent on the client's needs. Rarely, will a client of
subconscious therapy work on the same issue for more than a few
visits.
Can I learn these
tools, and do work on myself?
~
Absolutely. Although many of the techniques are best
facilitated by a practitioner, there are many things that we will
tech you to do on your own, including self-hypnosis, which is a very
powerful tool. We encourage our clients to do this work on
their own. Honestly, the fewer times we have to see you , the
happier we are! (In a clinical setting anyway!)
Is this work effective
for children?
~
VERY effective! And much quicker. What we find is that
kids are much more open to this work, because they don't have a lot
of the "Stuff" that we have as adults that can tend to get
in the way. They are trusting, open, and can readily access
their imaginations and subconscious mind! We have a soft spot
for kids, and are developing some specific workshops and retreats
for kids. This work has had great results in working with kids
one-on-one, dealing with issues such as: finger/thumb sucking,
grades, self-esteem, dealing with peer pressure, confidence,
athletic performance, etc.
