Many clients initially seek Hypnoanalysis to uncover and resolve the underlying causes of their symptoms. However, some individuals respond just as effectively to single-session treatments. For instance, issues like wanting to stop smoking, fear of flying, needle and dental phobias, and weight loss through the Hypno-Gastric Band Procedure can all be successfully addressed in just one hypnotherapy session, often with symptoms not returning.

In contrast to many therapies that treat only the symptoms—repeating the treatment when symptoms resurface—Hypnoanalysis focuses on eliminating the root causes of problems. Once these root causes are addressed, the symptoms have nothing left to sustain them. A helpful analogy is the dandelion: if you only pull off the leaves, the plant will quickly grow back. But if you remove the roots, the plant is gone for good.
