Yes, I can relate to that. I have also had experiences where at the end of a series of sessions, a client is looking to me, as the expert, for guidance as to whether or not they should come back for more, and for some reason I discourage them from c…
Hi, I find the failure of selling the client short is often driven by pressure because if I provided an estimate of # of sessions beforehand, then going beyond that might seem like I am a bad hypnotist, or that the client is not doing well, or that…
Hello Brother Taylor,
I've had many failures from my perspective and a common theme which runs thru many of them is that I've often tried to do things too efficiently, and not encouraged some clients to continue with more sessions, even if they cou…
P.S. I use EFT while reciting the Law of Least Effort, prior to induction, with my drug/alcohol clients as they are inattentive to the max for the first 2 weeks of residential tx...they love the EFT as an instant "claming and focusing technique"....…
Hey Grumpy...maybe too much caffiene intake, sugar, drugs / alcohol issues?....precontemplation stage of change as it appears...I wouldn continue to pay for something that I am not completely interested in...it does make you wonder why they keep com…
Hi Grumpy, Perhaps your client would benefit from an NLP technique called Clearing the Now which we do with every client first session. See attached PDF.

Hi Grumpy,
I've had the occasional client that I would describe as not grounded. They feel most comfortable when they are doing the talking and wander off when I am talking. From an energetic point off view I notice they are totally 'top' heavy and…
PS. Just an additional bit of info: although this may seem on the surface kind of similar to description of what an ADD or ADHD labeled person would act like, it is quite different from that too. I haven't encountered difficulty working with people…

consistent indicator of potential "problematic" client
Hello, I am interested in your thoughts regarding what I am finding seems to be an indicator that a person will very likely turn out to be a difficult client.
I do my best to keep a blank mind in regards to expectations about the client during pre-interview, and find repellent the ideas of "blaming the client", or calling them "analytical" or "resistant", or claiming that they are "not ready yet" for change.
However, there seems to be a consistently observable behavior in nearly every client I… Continue

two songs
Two of my favorite videos on Youtube are:
Zooey Deschanel - Why Can't We Be Friends
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGhuYsMW4VY
Cypress Hill - You Can't Get the Best of Me
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hua5StfTpns
I was watching these songs on my Youtube playlist today and they both reminded me of this forum at times. I wonder why? ^_^
Personally, I would rather spend quality time with Zooey Deschanel but I can appreciate a good fight club, too!

Fable Goodman said… - Hello His Grumpiness,
Thanks for the the friend invite, which I was happy to accept.
I have been warming to your sense of humour more and more over the last few weeks, as well as your more serious and insightful comments.
Love and hugs,
Fable

Tom Nicoli said… - Thank you "grumpy"... : ) I appreciate your supportive comments and yes, I agree. Too many people, even in our profession, can sure talk about the LOA but have a difficult time putting it into practice. They want to receive but have a problem in the giving department.
My best,
Tom

- Ahh yes, well I've burned many a candle low reading from the Helping Friendly Book, from our most beloved and hallowed prophet Icculus.
Personally I think everyone should read Icculus, but that WOULD be absurd.
There is a finite amount of sense and it ain't all that common!

One of the best videos I have seen in a long time. Very good. I love the line "What feels more stuck, your hands or your fingers?". Great use of techniques.
Hello David,
You said:
"do a variation of EFT (variation I have been told by master EFT'ers)"
I wonder if you might expand a bit more on this variation of EFT. I am also intrigued with this traceless regression you do. Could you discuss this.

I'm interested in trading even MORE Skype hypnosis sessions with other hypnotherapists. I offer Hypno-Healing which includes Ultra-Height(tm). What I have to offer may be different than what others have to offer. It's fascinating because nearly ever…

James, I cannot possibly top that...!

Michael,
1. If you were referring to me, I never conflated eliciting an IMR with a client's guaranteed outcome, and so I'd have to reject your statement as a straw man fallacy. Also, if you're saying that eliciting an IMR could never have a bearing…
Reg, et al,
When we offer our opinions - we are sharing a judgement -- Some insisted (not you,) that the problem with hypnosis was that some hypnotists didn't practice hypnosis their way -- Give me a break!
My opinion is that the only meaningful p…
