If you're looking for hypnosis near Charlottesville, VA—or prefer the convenience of Zoom sessions—Christine Brodmerkel Hypnotherapy offers personalized, clinically grounded support for healing and personal growth. Drawing on a broad range of hypnotherapy skills and techniques, sessions are designed to meet your individual needs and goals.
New clients begin with a 30-minute Discovery Meeting. This introductory session offers an opportunity to learn how hypnotherapy works, explore your specific concerns, and determine whether this approach aligns with your goals. From there, I offer a variety of session packages tailored to support your progress and well-being.
The process is designed to be as simple and supportive as possible. If you have questions or require a customized scheduling option, feel free to reach out.

Guidelines for a successful Discovery Session
- Choose a time and location when you'll be undisturbed and there is no background noise (no driving or cafe locations please), and where you can speak freely.
- Check in advance that your internet connection (wifi or cellular) is strong enough for video.
- Write down your questions ahead of time.
- Be prepared to share what you are wanting to change.
- Feel free to take notes.
How to Prepare for the Discovery Session
- Sit in a chair that allows you to sit up straight. Make sure there is plenty of light so I can see your face clearly.
- Before our session, practice with someone to check the lighting and camera angle.
- Turn your device's output volume high so I can hear you clearly.
- Could you exchange phone numbers with me in case of any WiFi issues?
Zoom Tele Sessions - Working with Zoom
All appointments that are virtual (tele-sessions) will be using HIPPA-compliant ZOOM. You'll receive the link after scheduling the Discovery Session.
A few tips
When we are on the Zoom call together you will want to insure my video remains visible on your screen. To do so, "Pin" the video of me by hovering over my picture and click the three-dot menu, then select "Pin."
Full sessions are only conducted via computer due to the need for me to see you clearly and without distortion. Zoom functions optimally on computers where all the apps features are also accessible.
Zoom can be accessed directly on your web browser. If you have Zoom on your computer it may require an update. Log on 5 or more minutes early to allow Zoom to run any updates.
Your wifi or landline connection must be stable for our sessions to proceed. Plan ahead for a good place and time so that your session will be uninterrupted.
