Cheryle provides hypnotherapy services to help people overcome habits or to achieve some result that they have been unable to attain. Examples would be smoking, overeating, nail biting, maintaining an exercise routine, passing exams, or performance in sports or other areas. Problems such as these are almost always treated in three to six sessions, spaced a week or two apart. A brief evaluation is conducted by Cheryle in the first session so that she can fully understand the nature of the problem and the person's desired outcome. She can then determine the best hypnosis strategy, client suggestibility style and discuss any questions the client may have. Problems such as generalized anxiety, stress, phobias, or chronic pain may require more sessions, especially if there is a link between the problem and a person's relationships, career, or family issues. But Cheryle's goal is to complete the work in as few sessions as possible. Sessions are normally scheduled every one or two weeks. The first session can take one and a half to two hours with following sessions taking only one hour. The hourly rate is $120.00 except for the first session, which is an introductory rate of only $120.00 for the full two hour session time. To maximize savings, prepay for three sessions for only $300.00.  If a client needs to reschedule an appointment, one business day's notice is required. Without this notice a surcharge of $50.00 is implemented. Hypnotherapy can help to create powerful change, but only if the client is committed to the change. A simple commitment is half the battle. All hypnotherapy sessions are bound by confidentiality and the code of ethics of the IMDHA (International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association), with which Cheryle is a registered member.

“My waters stayed intact the whole time! I was so grateful. I used your hypnosis CD for the first 3 hours of my 6 hour labour. It was a HUGE help! I did great visualizations of my cervix opening & trusting my body and all the great messages we prepared with. Everytime a contraction hit I would just get absorbed by the CD. It was amazing what a help it was to focus on that. The pain was entirely manageable right through until my midwife convinced me to break my water when I was nearly fully dilated. I only pushed for 13 minutes before Lily was born! I wanted to thank you so much because I really felt the hypnosis we did along with the CD you made truly made this labour a more beautiful experience!” - D.F. Calgary "Thank you so much for performing hypnosis with me. It was and has been a very positive experience. I have noticed a HUGE difference, and my riding coach repeatedly comments on how it is nice that I seem to be finally getting it.  The progression my horse and I have made since I saw you has been remarkable. We went to a show in Red Deer for the Sept long weekend and every day, every class was an improvement from the class before. It was very, very cool! "- K.I., Calgary "I came to see Cheryle about my long-term stress.  I have never been to a hypnotherapist before so I was quite nervous and not entirely certain that I could be hypnotized, let alone see any changes from such a treatment. Cheryle went out of her way to ensure that I was comfortable during our sessions and was completely relaxed. As for results, I have been able to stay calm during situations where I would normally have hit 'instant panic mode'.   Thank you!" - C.C., Calgary
