Terms and Conditions for Hypnotherapy and Counselling
Services

1. Nature of Services
Alesja Lavrinovica, while holding a doctoral degree in Theology, is not a medical doctor and does not diagnose or provide medical treatment. The relationship
established is that of a service provider (hypnotherapist) and client, not a doctor-patient relationship. Hypnotherapy is a complementary therapy and not a substitute for professional medical care.
The counselling services provided for faith-related issues and so-called religious trauma are not medical treatments.

These consultations may include:

  • Elements of theological interpretation
  • Education about different aspects of religion and theology
  • Elements of cognitive behavioural therapy
  • Hypnosis techniques
  • Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) methods
    These consultations are designed to provide support and guidance but should not be
    considered as medical or psychiatric treatment. Clients seeking help for severe
    mental health issues should consult with licensed mental health professionals or
    medical doctors.
