RTT® Hypnotherapy Case Study for Breaking Free from the Comfort Zone

The Challenge of Feeling Stuck and Afraid to Embrace Change

After years in the same job, this client in her early 40s began to feel increasingly stuck. While her role was familiar and safe, it had become uninspiring. A quiet frustration began to grow, not just with work, but with herself. She’d lost trust in her ability to make decisions and was afraid of change, even when she longed for something more.

She wasn’t originally from the UK, and her upbringing was strict. Growing up, emotional expression wasn’t encouraged, and she was often left to work things out on her own. As an adult, this showed up as self-doubt, a fear of taking risks, and a deep uncertainty about the future. She wanted to feel excited and challenged again, to rebuild her self-trust and take safe, meaningful risks, but old beliefs were holding her back.

How RTT® Helped Her Let Go of Fear and Rebuild Confidence

Through RTT® hypnotherapy, we explored the root of those beliefs. She was able to understand how her fear of making decisions and discomfort with uncertainty had been formed. More importantly, she could finally let them go. This created space for new confidence, clarity, and a sense of control over her future.

By the end of our work, she felt ready to step beyond her comfort zone, not recklessly, but with calm assurance. She could now imagine taking action without overthinking or spiralling into fear. That sense of being stuck had lifted, replaced by a genuine connection to her goals and a stronger belief in her own choices.
