Inductions and therapy methods used should be tailored to fit the needs and expectations of the client.
The client defines the most effective hypnotic procedures. Hypnotists must be observant and flexible enough to adapt their style and their role to those needs and attitudes.
Techniques cannot be followed rigidly with good success since, in hypnosis, the personal needs of the individual client must be met, rather than merely inducing a trance and giving suggestions.
