RAPID TRANSFORMATIONAL THERAPY (RTT)® HYPNOTHERAPY · NZ, ONLINE
You understand the pattern. It still keeps happening.
You know that you’re capable, yet doubt yourself when it matters. You recognise the harsh inner voice, but still find yourself believing it. Or you understand that a situation is safe and feel anxious before you have time to think.
Being able to explain a response does not always make it easier to change.
RTT® hypnotherapy offers a focused way to explore the beliefs and emotional associations that may be contributing to it.
We begin with what you want help with, agree on a clear focus and consider whether hypnotherapy is an appropriate approach.
Standalone RTT®: $450 NZD
Based in Hamilton, with online sessions across New Zealand and Australia.

Before booking, we have a free phone consultation to discuss your concerns and whether RTT is suitable.
Self-doubt and a persistent inner critic
You have evidence that you are capable, but it never quite settles the doubt. Praise is easy to dismiss. A mistake feels personal, and you find yourself questioning whether you are good enough.
Anxiety and overthinking
You rehearse conversations, anticipate what could go wrong or keep returning to something that has already happened. You want to feel prepared, but the thinking rarely leaves you feeling settled.
People-pleasing and fear of disappointing others
You know you need a boundary, yet saying no brings guilt or fear of rejection. You put your own needs aside, then feel frustrated that you have done it again.
WHAT BRINGS PEOPLE HERE
When the reaction feels stronger than what you know.
Perfectionism and pressure to prove yourself
You feel driven to get things right, stay productive or remain in control. Slowing down can bring discomfort, even when you know you need the rest.
Specific fears and recurring emotional responses
A particular situation brings a familiar rush of fear, shame or self-consciousness. You may avoid it, brace yourself beforehand or react in a way you later struggle to understand.
These are reasons people enquire about hypnotherapy. They do not all have the same cause or need the same approach. We discuss your experience before deciding whether RTT fits.
THE MEANING BEHIND THE RESPONSE
Sometimes the situation is only part of what you are reacting to.
A piece of feedback can feel like proof that you are failing. Someone’s disappointment can feel like a threat to the relationship. Rest can bring the uncomfortable sense that you are being lazy or letting things slip.
The meaning attached to an experience can influence how you feel and what you do next.
You might respond by working harder, seeking reassurance, avoiding the situation or criticising yourself before anyone else can.
In hypnotherapy, we can explore the beliefs and associations involved. What do you expect to happen? What does it seem to say about you? Does that interpretation fit your circumstances now?
We do not assume there is one hidden belief behind every difficulty. Habits, health, relationships and current pressures may also need attention.
UNDERSTANDING THE APPROACH
What is RTT® hypnotherapy?
Rapid Transformational Therapy® is a structured hypnotherapy approach developed by Marisa Peer.
It combines hypnosis with techniques for exploring beliefs, emotional associations and the meanings attached to experiences. A session may involve considering familiar interpretations, exploring conflicting feelings and developing suggestions linked to your goals.
Hypnosis involves focused attention and an increased capacity to respond to suggestion. People experience it differently; some feel deeply relaxed, while others remain quite alert.
What do you mean by subconscious patterns?
I use this term to describe responses that happen with little deliberate thought, such as an immediate expectation of criticism or a familiar urge to please someone.
We explore your experience without assuming that every symptom has a subconscious cause.
Will we explore earlier experiences?
Where relevant, we may discuss memories or impressions that arise during hypnosis.
Memory is reconstructive. Material that emerges in hypnosis should not be treated as proof of what happened or as a reliable way to recover lost memories. The focus is on the meaning the experience holds for you now.
WHAT HYPNOSIS FEELS LIKE
You can ask questions. You can speak. You can stop.
Hypnosis does not mean handing over control.
You remain able to make choices about participating and do not have to accept a suggestion. You can tell me something, ask for clarification or stop the session.
You do not need to produce a particular feeling or vivid mental images. We discuss what to expect beforehand, and you can describe your experience as it happens.
My role is to guide the process and work with you.
WHAT HAPPENS
Your RTT® appointment, step by step.
1. We talk before you book.
The free phone consultation gives us time to discuss what you want help with, what you have tried and any relevant health information.
You can ask questions about hypnosis, and we consider whether this is a suitable next step.
2. We agree on a focus.
Before your appointment, I review the information you have provided.
We clarify the response you want to work on and what you would like to be different. For example, “more confidence” might mean speaking in a meeting without spending the evening criticising what you said.
3. We work through the hypnotherapy session.
The appointment lasts approximately 90 minutes and takes place online via Zoom.
I guide you into hypnosis. We explore relevant beliefs and associations, consider the meanings that emerge and work with perspectives and suggestions connected to your goals.
4. You receive your personalised recording.
Your hypnosis recording is created around the work we have done together.
You receive guidance on listening to it and using it as part of your practice afterwards.
5. We consider how this translates into daily life.
We discuss what you can notice or practise when the familiar situation appears again.
Standalone RTT includes email follow-up, so you can share how you are getting on and ask questions about the work.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A focused session, with realistic expectations.
We agree on a concern to work on and what useful change would look like for you.
That might mean responding to a mistake with less self-criticism, feeling more able to speak up or approaching a situation you have been avoiding.
People respond differently to hypnotherapy. One appointment may be a useful part of the work, but I do not promise that a single session will resolve the difficulty or create permanent change.
If several factors are involved, or you need support practising changes over time, we can discuss coaching or another appropriate service.
YOUR PRACTITIONER
I’m Genevieve
PHYSIOTHERAPIST · CERTIFIED HYPNOTHERAPIST · RTT® PRACTITIONER
I trained in RTT® with Marisa Peer and bring a background in health science, neurological and respiratory physiotherapy, and professional coaching.
My Bachelor of Health Science in Physiotherapy is from AUT, and I completed professional coach training through the NZ Coaching & Mentoring Centre.
That experience shapes how I approach hypnotherapy. I consider your symptoms, circumstances and existing support, as well as the beliefs or emotional responses you want to explore.
I listen carefully, explain the work and recognise when another approach would be more appropriate.
I remain registered as a physiotherapist but am currently non-practising. My services here are coaching and hypnotherapy. I am also an IICT member.

From the very beginning her professionalism was clear, and she created such a warm, welcoming space that immediately put me at ease. I came away feeling clear. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking positive and lasting change.

What stood out most was how safe and grounded she made the space feel. Her questions helped me connect patterns I hadn't fully understood before. Something shifted in how I see things now, and the recording has been a big part of reinforcing that.

WHEN YOU NEED SUPPORT OVER TIME
Sometimes there is more than one thing to work on.
You may want to explore a particular belief while also changing habits, setting boundaries or addressing the pressures affecting your wellbeing. Personalised 1:1 Coaching gives us time to work across those areas and discuss what happens as you put changes into practice.
Six fortnightly sessions over three months
Includes agreed practices, written session summaries and relevant resources.
$1,500 NZD
RTT® can be included for an additional $200 when appropriate.
We discuss which option fits your needs. The larger programme is not automatically necessary.
Questions about RTT® hypnotherapy
-
Hypnotherapy is the broader practice of using hypnosis for therapeutic purposes. RTT is a particular approach developed by Marisa Peer, combining hypnosis with exploration of beliefs, emotional associations and meanings.
-
Research on hypnosis supports its use for some concerns, with evidence varying by condition and approach.
Evidence for hypnosis generally does not establish that the specific RTT method produces the same results. It also does not demonstrate that a single RTT session will resolve a concern. I keep those distinctions clear when discussing the work.
-
Hypnosis is not sleep. You may feel relaxed or absorbed, but you can still communicate and make choices about participating.
-
You do not need vivid pictures to describe your experience. We discuss what you notice, which might include thoughts, feelings, sensations or impressions.
-
We discuss the approach and your concerns before beginning. You can set limits, decline to explore something or stop. If the work would require specialist trauma care, I will recommend appropriate support.
-
That depends on your needs and response. A standalone session offers focused work, without a guarantee that one appointment will be sufficient.
-
Yes. Sessions take place online via Zoom across New Zealand and Australia. You need a reliable connection and a private place where you can participate without interruptions.
-
We can discuss whether hypnotherapy would be appropriate alongside your existing care. It does not replace medical, psychological or psychiatric treatment.
-
The price is $450 NZD. This includes preparation, approximately 90 minutes of hypnotherapy, a personalised recording, guidance on using it and email follow-up.
-
New, unexplained or concerning physical symptoms should be medically assessed. We do not assume they are caused by anxiety or subconscious beliefs.
This practice does not provide urgent or crisis care.
Let’s talk about the response you want to change.
You do not need to know why it happens or whether hypnotherapy is the answer.
A free phone consultation gives us time to discuss your concerns, answer your questions and consider whether RTT is a suitable next step.
