Frequently Asked Questions

 Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) is a therapeutic approach that combines hypnosis, cognitive behavioural therapy, and other therapeutic techniques to identify and resolve the root causes of limiting beliefs, emotional blocks, or psychological challenges. RTT aims to deliver lasting change in a shorter time frame than many traditional therapies by focusing on uncovering the underlying reasons behind unwanted behaviours or beliefs.

 RTT uses hypnosis to access the subconscious mind, where deeply held beliefs, memories, and emotional responses reside. In a relaxed state, clients can more easily explore past experiences and identify the origins of their current issues. Through RTT, the therapist works with the client to “recode” these limiting beliefs and replace them with positive, empowering ones, helping to create behavioural and emotional change.

 RTT is versatile and can address a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, phobias, low self-esteem, weight management, addiction, relationship issues, trauma, and chronic pain, among others. It’s particularly effective for challenges rooted in emotional or psychological beliefs.

 No, you won’t be asleep or lose control. Hypnosis in RTT is a relaxed state, like a deep daydream, where you’re fully aware and able to respond to questions. You’re conscious and in control throughout the session, and you can remember everything afterward.

RTT is designed to be a rapid solution-based therapy. Many clients experience significant improvements in just one to three sessions, depending on the nature and complexity of the issue. However, some issues require additional sessions for deeper healing and reinforcement. 

An RTT session generally lasts between 60-90 minutes. The therapist begins by discussing the client’s issues and goals, then guides them into a relaxed, hypnotic state. Through questioning, the therapist helps the client explore past experiences related to the issue. Once the root causes are identified, the therapist uses various techniques to transform these beliefs. Afterward, the client receives a personalised recording to reinforce the changes.

No, RTT differs from traditional hypnotherapy in its structure and approach. While it uses hypnosis to access the subconscious, RTT goes further by combining elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, neuro-linguistic programming, and psychotherapy. RTT is focused on uncovering root causes and actively transforming beliefs within a single session, whereas traditional hypnotherapy may involve multiple sessions to achieve similar results.

Yes, RTT is safe when conducted by a trained and certified therapist. Because it works with your subconscious mind, RTT can evoke emotional experiences, but the therapist is trained to guide clients through this process in a supportive and compassionate way. Clients may experience an emotional release, which is part of the healing process.

Most people can be hypnotised if they’re willing and open to it. RTT hypnosis simply involves achieving a state of deep relaxation and focus, which makes it easier to access the subconscious mind. Some individuals may need more time to relax into the process, but with an experienced therapist, almost everyone can reach the necessary state.

Many clients experience lasting change with RTT, especially when they fully engage with the process and listen to their personalised recording after the session as directed. RTT addresses the root cause of an issue, helping to create long-term results, but the effectiveness depends on the client’s commitment to the process and the complexity of the issue. The teamwork between the therapist and client is vital to the process. The goal is permanent results. 

After an RTT session, clients often feel lighter, more positive, and empowered. Some may experience an immediate transformation, while others may notice gradual improvements over time. Listening to the customised recording provided by the therapist daily for 21-30 days is essential for reinforcing the changes. Emotions or memories may surface as part of the healing process, which is a normal response.

Yes, RTT can be effective for children and teenagers, especially when addressing issues like anxiety, self-esteem, confidence, and behavioural challenges. RTT therapists adapt the approach to be age-appropriate and ensure a safe, supportive environment for younger clients.

Unlike talk therapy, which often requires multiple sessions over months or years, RTT is focused on achieving rapid and transformative results, usually within 1-3 sessions. RTT goes beyond talking about the problem by actively working to identify and transform the underlying beliefs and emotions driving the issue.
