What is RTT therapy and how does it work?

RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) is a hybrid therapy combining hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, and neuroscience. It helps clients access the subconscious to identify and reframe deeply rooted beliefs that may be driving addiction, anxiety, or depression. Sessions often lead to rapid emotional relief and lasting behavioural change.

How is RTT different from regular therapy?

Unlike traditional talk therapy which can take months or years, RTT works by accessing the subconscious mind in a relaxed state, allowing you to reach the root of emotional blocks quickly. Most clients experience significant breakthroughs in one to three sessions, making it ideal for deep healing during a rehab or retreat stay.

Is RTT safe for addiction recovery?

Yes, RTT is a safe and highly effective therapy for those in addiction recovery. It is non-invasive and supports the emotional healing process by helping clients release trauma, reduce self-sabotage, and build empowering beliefs that support sobriety and self-worth.

Can RTT help with trauma and past emotional wounds?

Absolutely. RTT is particularly powerful for healing unresolved trauma, especially childhood experiences that have shaped core beliefs. Clients often report feeling lighter, more peaceful, and better equipped to move forward after just one session.

Who delivers the RTT sessions at Bali Harmony Rehab?

All RTT sessions are delivered by our founder, Kerryn Bolton, a certified Rapid Transformational Therapist and experienced addiction recovery specialist. Kerryn brings deep insight, compassion, and clinical skill to each session, creating a safe and transformational experience.

What programs include RTT therapy at Bali Harmony Rehab?

RTT Therapy for Addiction and Trauma Recovery

Experience profound transformation with RTT Therapy in Bali, a powerful method for rapid and lasting change.

At Bali Harmony Rehab, we pride ourselves on offering innovative and effective therapies to support our clients and our programs. One such groundbreaking hypnotherapy method is Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT). Developed by world renowned therapist Marisa Peer, RTT is a revolutionary approach that combines the most effective principles of hypnotherapy, psychotherapy, NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), and CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) to achieve profound and lasting results. Kerryn was one of the first people to learn RTT and has been successfully practicing for 9 years.

What Is RTT?

RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) is a powerful form of clinical hypnotherapy that helps you uncover the root causes of emotional and behavioural patterns. Unlike traditional talk therapy, RTT therapy works at the subconscious level, allowing you to identify and reframe limiting beliefs that have been holding you back. The method is mad, it is included in all our programs and is something that sets us apart from all other rehabs

In a typical RTT session, you are guided into a deeply relaxed state where you can explore past experiences and emotional blocks. The process is insightful, healing, and often life-changing.

How Does RTT Work?

The process of RTT involves several key stages that work together to bring about deep and lasting change:

Hypnosis: The therapist guides the client into a relaxed, trance-like state, which allows direct access to the subconscious mind. This state of heightened awareness and focus helps bypass the critical conscious mind, making it easier to explore and address underlying issues.
Uncovering Root Causes: In this relaxed state, the therapist helps the client revisit and understand significant events from their past that have contributed to their current challenges. This process of exploration and discovery reveals the root causes of negative beliefs and behaviours.
Reframing and Releasing: Once the root causes are identified, the therapist uses powerful techniques to reframe these experiences and release the emotional charge associated with them. This helps clients let go of old, limiting beliefs and replace them with more positive and empowering ones.
Installation of Positive Beliefs: The final stage involves reinforcing new, positive beliefs and behaviours through personalised affirmations and suggestions. You will be given a personal recording to reinforce new beliefs which you will listen to for 30 days to help re-wire your subconscious mind. This helps clients build a healthier and more positive mindset, paving the way for lasting change and personal growth.

Uncovering and releasing trauma
Rewiring beliefs around self-worth and safety
Addressing guilt, shame, and self-sabotage
Supporting emotional regulation and resilience
Building motivation and commitment to sobriety

What our Client Say

Before RTT, I felt like I was constantly fighting myself. I had years of anxiety, self-sabotage, and emotional triggers I didn’t fully understand. I’d tried counselling and even medication, but nothing seemed to shift the deeper issues.

Working with Kerryn and RTT, changed everything. Through RTT, I uncovered beliefs I’d been carrying since childhood, beliefs I didn’t even realise were holding me back. The sessions felt like unlocking a part of myself I’d buried.

I only needed one session to experience a real shift. I’m calmer now, less reactive, and finally feel in control of my thoughts and emotions.

This wasn’t just therapy, it was healing at the root. I’m so grateful for the care, safety and insight Kerryn provided. RTT gave me my life back.
