Why Is Hypnotherapy So Expensive?

Let’s be honest, hypnotherapy can feel out of reach. Private sessions typically range between $150 and $300 per hour.

But here’s the truth most people don’t realize: that’s about the same as many traditional therapists when you’re out of network. So, no, hypnotherapy isn’t necessarily more expensive.

The real difference lies in what happens inside the session, and how quickly it works.

Why Hypnotherapy Works Faster

Traditional talk therapy is powerful, but progress can sometimes take years. You spend time building rapport, retelling your story, and still feel stuck, because you’re only working with about 5% of your mind: the conscious part.

Hypnotherapy, on the other hand, works with the 95% of your subconscious mind, the part that stores emotions, patterns, and beliefs. During a session, you enter a theta brainwave state, the same relaxed state your brain was in from ages zero to eight, when you absorbed most of your core beliefs about yourself and the world.

If some of those early beliefs weren’t true, they still influence your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors today. Hypnotherapy helps you reprogram those old patterns, allowing for faster, deeper transformation.

My Story: How Beliefs Get Formed

When I was seven, I’d be doing math homework before ballet. My mom, a single mother from New York, would rush in, already overwhelmed, and shout for me to get in the car.

Here’s what happened: I froze. She shouted louder. The louder she got, the more I froze, until I burst into tears.

No one came in to explain,

“Carolyn, your mom is stressed. Your feelings matter. You’re not wrong.”

So my nervous system made its own meaning:

• I’m bad.

• I’m wrong.

• It’s my fault.

None of those beliefs were true. But because I never processed those emotions, they stuck. That’s how the subconscious works, it locks in meaning to protect you.

Years later, those same programs still shaped my reactions, emotions, and self-beliefs.

That’s why hypnotherapy is so powerful: it helps you return to those moments, release the trapped emotions, and reset the program.

Why I Made It Affordable

Even though private hypnotherapy sessions are comparable in cost to traditional therapy, I know not everyone can afford to pay out of pocket each week, and that never felt right to me.

That’s why I created the STOP IT™ Membership, to make healing both affordable and accessible.
