Our Packages

Your first appointment—often called the initial assessment—is a foundational step in your hypnotherapy journey. This session is designed to give you the opportunity to explore how well we might work together, and for us to begin building the trust and understanding essential for effective change.

During this 90 minute appointment, you'll have the space to share the details of your goals, challenges, and expectations. It’s also a time for you to ask questions, clarify any concerns, and experience how hypnotherapy may support your growth. Just as every person is unique, so too should be the approach we take.

The insights gained during the assessment allow us to collaboratively create a personalized, strategic plan tailored to your specific needs. This clarity sets the tone for future sessions, ensuring that each one moves you closer to meaningful, lasting outcomes.

Can I upgrade my package?

Yes. If you start with a smaller package and decide you’d like more sessions, you can upgrade at any time. We’ll simply apply the new session rate based on the total number of sessions you’ve decided on so you’re never starting from scratch.

Is hypnotherapy covered by insurance in Canada?

This is one of the most common questions we receive—and the answer is: sometimes, but not always.

Hypnotherapy coverage in Canada depends on your specific insurance provider and plan. In many cases, hypnotherapy is not directly covered unless it’s provided by a regulated healthcare professional (such as a psychologist or psychotherapist).

At the National Institute of Hypnotherapy, we can provide detailed receipts for your sessions. Some clients are able to submit these under broader categories such as counselling or wellness services, but reimbursement is not guaranteed.

If coverage is important to you, we recommend checking directly with your provider using terms like:

• “hypnotherapy coverage Canada”
• “is hypnotherapy covered by insurance Canada”

We’re always happy to provide any information you need to support your inquiry.

How much does hypnotherapy cost in Canada?

If you’ve been searching “how much does hypnotherapy cost” or “hypnotherapy cost Canada,” you’ll notice pricing can vary widely depending on experience, specialization, and format.

Our packages are designed to offer affordable hypnotherapy in Canada while maintaining a high standard of care, advanced training, and consistent results.

Investing in a package not only reduces the per-session cost, but also supports better outcomes by allowing for continuity and reinforcement.

Do sessions expire?

No, you are billed per session, and pricing is based on the package you've chosen. However, to help maintain momentum and results, we recommend using your sessions consistently, as spacing them too far apart can reduce effectiveness. Full details on suggested timelines and spacing of sessions will be discussed together with your hypnotherapist.

Can I split sessions between practitioners?

In most cases, we recommend working with one primary practitioner to ensure continuity and a strong therapeutic relationship.

However, if there’s a specific reason to involve another practitioner (availability, specialization, etc.), we’re happy to discuss options and make a plan that supports your goals.

What is the cancellation policy?

We ask for at least 24 hours’ notice for any cancellations or rescheduling.

Late cancellations or missed appointments may result in a fee. This helps us respect our practitioners’ time and availability for all clients.
