For some people the results are immediate for others results are accumulative (they build over time) and for others they are retro active (you don't realise you've changed until you reflect upon it).  

Very few people don't see any results and for those that don't, RTT acts like a stepping stone to a point where you can eventually understand why you are resisting change.   For people who don't see any change after one RTT session and follow ups, a second RTT session might be required or a different approach altogether.  

Counselling and psychotherapy are 'top down' approaches meaning they focus on the mind.  Somatic therapies like yoga or Trauma Release Exercise are 'bottom up' therapies and focus on the body.  RTT is a top down AND bottom up approach that combines both of these powerful approaches.  

RTT is not hypnosis itself.  The hypnotic mindset is utilised to enable the process to be more powerful.  There are many different types of hypnotheraputic modalities out there, RTT is just one (a very good one!)  The main different being that RTT utilises regression therapy which leverages emotion (and pattern recognition) rather than just cognition to help make changes.   

80% of people CAN be hypnotised very well, however the 20% that can't still benefit from the RTT process by following along with eyes closed.   

Before every session I send my clients a 'primer' recording which helps their mind tune into the idea of letting go, adopting a positive attitude about hypnosis and allowing themselves to be supported through this process. 

Your beliefs, attitudes and expectations are incredibly important as a client, equally as important as my ability to perform my artistry as a hypnotherapist.   So by adopting a mindset of positive expectation & collaboration, the RTT process will work just fine.  

Hypnosis is an auditory experience and I don't need to be in the room with someone to put them into hypnosis.  The best way it works is if you are wearing headphones, then it's like I'm right there with you. 

They are held at my gorgeous home therapy space near Lidl in Kemptown.  Accessible easily by bus numbers:  1,7,23,27 and 12.  Plenty of on street metered parking available too.

During regression we're not necessarily going back to specific events, we're exploring the patterns and environments you were 'marinaded' in during childhood or adulthood.  You'll see that these patterns can leave a lasting impact on your belief system creating all kinds of issues, problems or coping strategies.  

If it turns out that there is literally no root cause, we can deploy other hypnotheraputic modalities. 

Hypnotherapy is highly supportive during menopause because this transition is described as “the great brain rewiring,”  an emotional and spiritual initiation. As hormone fluctuations heighten your brain’s sensitivity to stress, old patterns, and unresolved emotions, symptoms like anxiety, hot flushes, sleep disruption, brain fog, and overwhelm can intensify. Hypnotherapy works by calming the nervous system, helping you process the deeper emotional material that menopause brings to the surface, and rewiring subconscious patterns so you move through this transition with greater clarity, ease, and empowerment.
