Hypnotism proves to be quite the fascinating subject, and I would suggest you not research the subject until you are prepared to enter a vortex of never-ending time. For those interested in the more direct description, this question can be asking a variety of questions. For example, it may be referring to the differences between Stage Hypnosis compared to Consulting Hypnosis, and\ this proves to be quite a sizable gap. The first is for entertainment purposes and generally consists of the hypnotist getting little input, if any, from the participant. Whereas the Consulting Hypnotist’s session is centered around everything to do with the reason the client is even in at the appointment. Because of this, a lot more time and dedication are used to communicate and determine where the issue stems from before a solution can be found.

 

In as much as the question is about the types of Consulting Hypnosis, an endless variety from deep psychological disorders in sorting out past events, there are also specific types of surgeries, birthing of infants, and dental procedures performed without the use of anesthesia. Each hypnotist determines which areas are the most comfortable in the discussion. The areas chosen in my practice, Confidence, Fears and Phobias, Ceasing Nail-biting, Smoking Cessation, and Weight Loss are all areas in which I feel comfortable about as I have first-hand experience. Yes, it’s true; I am not perfect. 
