Okehypnotherapy’s Weblog

Since publishing my article “Borderline Personaliy Disorder and Hypnotherapy” on my blog, and it’s subsequent repetition on hypnotherapy ad complementary health websites around the world, I have received enquiries from sufferers of BPD and hypnotherapists wanting to know how to tread BPD, from all over the world.

As well as treating several more Borderline Personality Disorder cases with hypnotherapy, both with local clients and those who have travelled a long distance, I have spoken to many other people who have been diagnosed with BPD who are either overseas or who are unable to travel the distance to my hypnotherapy clinics in Manchester, Glossop and Sheffield.

I am currently in the process of moving my Manchester premises to the business center above the Triangle shopping centre. This means that I have more flexible premises and meeting rooms for group therapy more readily available. With this in mind, as well as the number of people who have been unable to afford to travel the distance and see the therapy process through, I have now produced an intensive group therapy programme for Borderline Personality Disorder. Operating this on a group therapy basis means that I can lower the cost per person substantially and make the travelling costs more worthwhile/lower by offering this scheme on an intensive basis.

The new programme is designed as an interactive 6 day course of treatment utilising techniques from hypnotherapy, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming, Coaching and EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique). Although it is very difficult for me to free up six consecutive days for this programme, it is possible at certain times of the year (Early January, August and October being the easiest).

If you are interested in this programme, please contact me. The intention is to start this programme in January 2010. Obviously, this is dependant on the number of people wishing to attend, the groups need to be small enough to be workable but large enough for me to be able to offer the substantial saving on the treatment cost.

In my experience, clients diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder require ten to twelve sessions at £65.00 per session (2009 prices). In other words, this costs between £650 and £780. The programme is designed to make this more affordable, particularly for those travelling a distance. Depending on the level of interest in the programme, I am estimating the cost to be between £325 and £450. In other words, for those travelling a distance, your hotel costs should be offset by attending the programme rather than attending one on one sessions.
