Talking to Auckland Hypnotherapy

Richard Kellow is a qualified hypnotherapist living and working in Ponsonby.

Richard Kellow is a qualified hypnotherapist living and working in Auckland.

He is originally from the UK and discovered first hand how the power of hypnosis brought such a positive and dramatic change coping with the pressures of London life that he decided to retrain as a hypnotherapist.

Richard is committed to working with you to establish the issue, set goals and make positive changes. He is also trained as a Certified Virtual Gastric Band Practitioner. A procedure pioneered as an alternative to surgery to help you lose weight.

How many sessions will I need?
While some issues can be dealt with in one session, in my experience a minimum of three to five sessions produce the best results.

What happens during the session?
I’ll get you to fill out a client registration form, take a detailed history and then we will talk about the issue you are experiencing. We will discuss what you would like to achieve from the sessions including setting any goals. I’ll answer any questions before we begin. The first session usually lasts for around 90 minutes with subsequent sessions around 60 minutes.

Is this confidential?
Everything we discuss within the consulting room is totally confidential and no information will be shared with a third party without your consent.

What can hypnotherapy treat?
Some of the common reasons people visit include help with stopping smoking, building self-esteem and confidence, reducing stress, and helping to get rid of phobias.

Richard also offers a set of hypnosis services dedicated to helping men overcome many of the challenges they may face in aspects of their life, through the power of the mind.

Weight loss is also very common and The Virtual Gastric Band produces amazing results.

For some people, they find hypnotherapy is a great tool to just relax, reset and recharge. The only limit is your mind.

Will I lose control?
No, you remain in control at all times and are free to come out of hypnosis at any point.

Hypnosis is neither magic nor a truth pill and hypnotherapy is not like stage hypnosis. It is a gentle, safe, respectful process.

What does it feel like?
There is not really any such thing as a hypnotised feeling, although most people will say that it is a very relaxing experience. Once people have entered it a few times, they become more aware of how it feels for them. When you ‘wake’, all normal sensation will be returned to your body and all parts of you will be back in the present.

Richard’s guarantee:
I will treat you with respect, compassion, empathy and with confidence at all times.

“I have deep experience in helping clients break through the blocks holding them back from success,” says Richard. “Once these are cleared and someone has a focused vision of what they want, nearly anything is possible.”
