A little about me — and how we work together.
I’m Maria.
I know what it’s like to hold it all together on the outside while quietly doubting yourself within.
Like you, I tried all the usual things — the books, the courses, the positive thinking, the strategies that helped for a while, but never quite reached the root of it.
What changed everything wasn’t trying harder. It was going deeper — working directly with the subconscious beliefs that had been quietly running the show since long before I had any say in them. And it’s what I now do with the women I work with.
What I do — and why it works differently
I’m a Clinical RTT Hypnotherapist and Confidence Coach, working online with professional women worldwide. My work combines Rapid Transformational Therapy with trauma-informed coaching and nervous system regulation — because real, lasting confidence isn’t just a thought you think differently. It’s something you feel in your whole body.
RTT Hypnotherapy allows us to access the subconscious mind directly — to find where a pattern began, understand it clearly, and change it at the source. Not manage it. Not cope with it. Change it.
The women I work with are smart, self-aware, and tired of their own self-doubt. They’ve usually already done a lot of work on themselves. What they haven’t found yet is something that reaches the level where the pattern actually lives. That’s what this work does.
What becomes possible when the pattern changes.
Confidence isn’t compartmentalised. When it shifts at the subconscious level, the change tends to ripple into every area of life — often in ways clients didn’t expect when they first came to me.
Speaking on stage, raising prices, stepping into visibility — without the paralysis that used to come with it
Ending relationships that were never right, and finally feeling ready for ones that are
Making peace with their body — breaking the cycle of yo-yo dieting and the constant, exhausting war with the mirror
Stopping hiding — in meetings, in relationships, in life — and taking up the space they always deserved
Letting go of emotional wounds that had been carried, quietly and heavily, for years
Every woman I work with is different — different history, different patterns, different life. So while the tools are consistent, the work is always bespoke. Your pace. Your experience. Your version of what freedom feels like.
My Approach
Trauma-informed throughout — you won’t be pushed to relive anything painful
Mind, body and nervous system — we work with all of it, not just the part you can articulate
Warm and direct — I care deeply about the women I work with, and I’m honest with them
No jargon, no scripts, no one-size-fits-all programmes
And yes — there will be moments of lightness and humour along the way. This work is profound. It doesn’t have to be heavy.
