Terms & Conditions

Kathy Greidanus, Nourishing Lives, LCC.

Clinical Hypnotherapist & Rapid Transformational Therapy Practitioner


Please read these terms and conditions which apply to the provision of my professional services. By making an appointment, submitting your payment, and signing this document, you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions. If you are unable or unwilling to agree to these terms and conditions, then you should not book an appointment, sign this document or continue with your course of therapy.


Complimentary Discovery Session  

You may be offered a free 20-minute initial discovery session. No therapy will be provided during the consultation.   The purpose of this initial consultation is to answer any questions you have about Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), what happens during a session and fees. During these calls, estimates of the number of sessions required to deal with your presenting issue are given on the basis of the information presented at that time. Estimates are only rough guidelines and are subject to change.

Booking & Payment

Payment for sessions must be made at time of scheduling or least 24 hours before the scheduled session start time.  Where payment is not received 24 hours before your session, the session will be cancelled and may be offered to someone else. It is your responsibility to pay the session fees before each scheduled session in order to confirm the appointment booking.

Cancellation, Rescheduling & Refunds

If you need to cancel or reschedule a session, please provide as much notice as possible. Notification may be made via email, phone call or text at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled session. No refunds will be issued for cancellations made after 24 hours prior to your scheduled session. Session fees are for my time and professional expertise and are not a guarantee of a successful outcome. Therefore, no refunds will be given for any sessions where you have attended and paid for. Where a discount package has been booked and paid for in advance, if you choose to discontinue your therapy process before attending all the sessions, a pro-rated refund will be issued after deduction of the full standard session fee for any sessions you have attended. Your RTT Intake Form must be submitted at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled session in order for me to have adequate time to prepare. If your intake is not received at least 48 hours prior to your scheduled session, I may need to cancel or reschedule your appointment without a refund.

Session Fees

All professional fees will be disclosed to you prior to booking. My professional fees are subject to review and may increase from time to time. You will always receive confirmation of the professional fees before booking. Payment must be made online at the time of booking. If payment is not received by 24 hours prior to your session, your session may be cancelled and offered to someone else.

Contact Between Sessions

Any contact between sessions will be via telephone, email or text and will be responded to during office hours. 

Medical or Psychological Conditions

I may ask questions about your medical history to establish any contra-indications to treatment. This will also help to assess whether your health is affecting (or being affected by) the therapeutic goals you wish to achieve. Please update me of any medical changes during the course of your sessions. If you are receiving care or treatment from any medical, healthcare or therapy practitioner, e.g. GP, Psychologist, Psychiatrist or Counselor, you may be asked to seek their permission before any therapy sessions can commence. Please note that I will be unable to offer my professional services if you suffer from epilepsy or have ever been diagnosed with any form of psychosis.
