Yes, it is completely safe.

To debunk any myths or misconceptions, RTT hypnotherapy and stage hypnotism are NOT the same.

• In RTT, you are always in control; I cannot make you say or do anything you don’t want to do when you’re in hypnosis.
• You can come out of hypnosis whenever you want. In fact, to be in hypnosis is a very common natural state, quite similar to daydreaming or the first few minutes of falling asleep where you can feel your eyes begin to flutter as your body becomes deeply relaxed.

Despite the remarkable transformation RTT offers, it should not be used instead of appropriate medical care. RTT is NOT suitable for individuals with a history of mental illness, such as dissociative disorders, personality disorders, psychosis, schizoaffective disorder, schizophrenia, auditory/visual hallucinations, and epilepsy.

If you have any questions or concerns about whether or not to use these methods and techniques, please seek advice and written consent from your GP before using any form of self-treatment.

RTT uncovers the root cause of your issues rapidly, saving you hours or even years in traditional talk therapy. Some clients experience massive breakthroughs in just one session, while others may need 2-3 sessions. For more complex or deep-rooted issues, such as PTSD, C-PTSD, long-term depression, or eating disorders, I often combine EMDR into the treatment plan since several additional sessions might be necessary.

RTT is the most effective when you focus on addressing one issue at a time, although overlapping issues like confidence and self-esteem can be addressed simultaneously. During your initial consultation, we can discuss your specific needs and determine if additional sessions will be required for other areas of concern.

As for EMDR, clients typically need at least 3-5 sessions to effectively reprocess the trauma or issue. We can take it one step at a time and assess your progress as we go.

Hypnosis and bilateral stimulation work just as effectively via video call as they do in-person, enabling you to experience the same transformative result in the comfort of your personal space. Please ensure you have a reliable internet connection and a quiet, uninterrupted space to begin your journey to positive change.

The actual RTT hypnosis session lasts on average between 90 minutes to 2 hours, although in some rare cases where the client has deep-rooted issues, this may take up to 3 hours.

An EMDR session typically lasts between 60-90 minutes, where each session begins with a 30-minute consultation to clarify your goals and current challenges. For some cases, this may take up to 2 hours.

For in-person sessions, simply arrive promptly with an open mind. No additional preparation is needed.

For online sessions, please ensure your device (computer or tablet) is fully charged and that you are in a quiet, private space where you won’t be interrupted.

While headphones or earphones are optional for online RTT sessions, they are essential for online EMDR sessions to ensure the most effective experience of bilateral stimulation.

I will use techniques in hypnosis to guide you to reach a deeply relaxed state, enabling you to focus on past events that were the root cause of your issues by accessing and communicating with your subconscious mind.

To address the root cause, I will help you interpret the meaning you created at the time the issues came into your life, and the beliefs you formed as a result, in order to make the connections and give you a deeper understanding of why and when they started and why it’s still affecting you today.

I will then assist you to release and reframe your negative thought patterns and self-limiting beliefs, as well as the way you look at your past from your today’s ‘adult’ perspective.

This powerful, transformative part of the process is crucial in upgrading your belief systems, enabling you to live a life that is aligned with your purpose and become the person you’ve always meant to be.

It’s completely normal to experience a range of shifts in the days following your session. Because both RTT and EMDR work deeply with the subconscious mind, your brain and body may continue processing long after the session ends.

Some common experiences include:

• Feeling tired or emotionally drained: This is your system integrating the work.

• Old memories resurfacing: Your mind is re-organising and releasing what no longer serves you.

• Vivid dreams: A sign that your subconscious is continuing the healing process while you sleep.

These experiences are temporary and part of the natural integration process. Most clients notice they pass within a few days, often followed by a greater sense of clarity, lightness, and relief.

If anything feels overwhelming, you’ll have direct support from me during your 30-day programme, so you’re never navigating this alone.

RTT is a collaborative process that involves you doing the work of listening to your personalised transformational hypnosis audio every day at least once a day for 21 days. This recording is crafted specifically for you, designed to reprogramme your subconscious mind with new, empowering thought patterns and self-beliefs. It is a vital part of reinforcing your transformation and creating lasting positive change.

The success of your RTT experience depends greatly on this practice. The more consistently you listen, the deeper and more powerful your results will be. 

Please note: Do not listen while driving or operating machinery, as hypnosis can make you drowsy.

It is in my experience that for some clients, cancelling or rearranging a scheduled session may be a reflection of them wanting to avoid dealing with the challenging issues that may arise from the session. For this reason, I strongly recommend that you commit to the dates and times we have originally agreed.

That being said, cancellations or rescheduling of a session must be made 24 hours in advance. More information is available in the disclaimer form during the onboarding process.
