Terms and Conditions

---

Welcome to Richard Taylor Psychotherapy

By engaging in hypnotherapy or psychotherapy services through this website or in person, you agree to the following terms and conditions. Please read them carefully before booking a session.

Professional Standards

Richard Taylor is a Clinical Psychotherapist & Hypnotherapist, currently completing training as of June 2025. He is a registered student member of the National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH) and adheres to their strict code of ethics and professional guidelines. Richard is fully insured and holds an enhanced DBS check to ensure the highest standards of care in his practice.

Services Offered

Richard provides hypnotherapy and psychotherapy services, both in-person at his  London clinic and to clients around the world online. These services are designed to help clients address various issues, including but not limited to anxiety, depression, phobias, and stress management. The approach combines evidence-based techniques grounded in neuroscience to facilitate rapid and lasting change.

Booking and Payment

• Booking: Sessions can be booked through the website or by contacting Richard directly.
• Payment: Payment is required at the time of booking. Accepted payment methods include credit/debit cards and other methods.
• Promotions: Any promotional offers, such as the current 50% discount for bookings made before July 2025, are subject to terms and availability.

Cancellation and Rescheduling

• Cancellation: If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, please provide at least 24 hours' notice. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice will incur a cancellation fee.
• Rescheduling: Sessions can be rescheduled subject to availability. Please contact Richard as soon as possible to arrange a new appointment time.

Confidentiality

All sessions are confidential. Information disclosed during therapy will not be shared with third parties without your consent, except in circumstances where there is a legal obligation to do so, such as:

• If there is a risk of harm to yourself or others.
• If there is disclosure of abuse or neglect.
• If required by a court of law.

Online Therapy

Online therapy sessions are conducted via secure video conferencing platforms. Clients are responsible for ensuring they have a stable internet connection and a private, quiet space for sessions. The effectiveness of online therapy is comparable to in-person sessions, and many clients find it more convenient and comfortable.

Insurance Reimbursement

While hypnotherapy is not typically covered by the NHS, some private health insurance policies may reimburse sessions, particularly if your plan includes complementary or mental health therapies. As a registered student member of the NCH, Richard can provide invoices and necessary documentation to support your claim. Clients are advised to check with their insurance provider to confirm coverage.

Limitations of Therapy

Therapy is a collaborative process, and outcomes may vary depending on individual circumstances. While many clients experience significant improvements, Richard does not guarantee specific results. Therapy is not a substitute for ongoing medical treatment, and clients are encouraged to consult with their healthcare providers for medical concerns.

Code of Conduct

Clients are expected to conduct themselves respectfully during sessions. Any form of abusive, inappropriate, or disruptive behaviour may result in the termination of therapy services.

Changes to Terms and Conditions

Richard Taylor Psychotherapy reserves the right to update these terms and conditions as necessary. Clients will be notified of any significant changes.
