I came across Leandra at a point in my life where I felt completely stuck.
I felt angry and had this nagging feeling that not only was I failing to move forward in my life, but I was also regressing. My self-esteem was extremely low, I felt like I needed a refresh, a pause of some sort to collect myself.
I knew I needed help because even the things that felt familiar to me would bring me anxiety. I felt anxious and unsafe even with people that were closest and safest to me. I felt like I was rapidly losing my voice. I had negative voices ringing in my head, even when doing the most mundane of tasks. I felt I was not enough, or doing enough, but still stuck in a cycle of inaction and self-sabotage.
When I approached Leandra, I explained to her all that I was going through and told her, I think I have some type of anxiety disorder that has gone undiagnosed.
We started the 8-week VIP RTT process, which started by her providing a questionnaire that explored what I was feeling in that moment as well as other aspects in my family and social life. We then had an initial session, which I was a bit sceptical about at first, but was open to see how everything evolves.
We arranged to have the first Rapid Transformation Therapy (RTT) session which she came to conduct at the safety of my home. This helped me reflect on the experiences I’ve had in my life; even from the time I was much younger that culminated in me feeling like I was about to burst at the time I reached out to her.
Leandra then took me through 8 weeks, of coaching, which was a combination of own internal work (e.g., listening to a custom recording that was made specifically for me to start the process of rewiring how my brain responds to discomfort), some additional tools (such as breath work, journaling tips etc.) that really helped me become a lot calmer and accepting of situations.
I really appreciated that Leandra was able to tackle every one of our interactions in a manner that was suitable to what I needed at that point. I’ve been going through a lot of changes in the past few months, and I believe I’m handling them a lot better than I had before. I’m not completely healed, and I believe healing is not linear, and can be a lifelong journey, but I can feel that I am much more equipped to handle the journey in a kinder manner.
Thank you for all the time and effort you have contributed in helping me so far.

I have always been an anxious person. Anxiety has been such a big part of my life that, until recently, I thought that it was normal and that everybody felt that way all the time. But there came a point where I realized that it was not how everybody felt and with that, I was able to see how debilitating anxiety really was.
I was making good progress through my mindfulness practice and through psychotherapy – dealing with my anxious mind and the way it affected my life. However, I felt like I had hit a glass ceiling and that perhaps, I had made as much progress as I was going to make. I felt feelings of disconnect and “stuckness” because I wasn’t able to shift my anxiety much more.
When I heard about RTT, I felt like this was perhaps the thing that would help me push through that glass ceiling.
With Leandra’s guidance, I was able to see that my presenting problem was not only anxiety, but also fear. I had a fear of everything. But especially, a fear of rejection. I was even scared to do the RTT session! However, Leandra took so much care with me and I really felt safe to take this journey under her guidance.
During the session I was able to uncover some very deep beliefs that had been steering my life and were responsible for my anxiety and fear. It was such a relief to finally understand what was, essentially, a very simple cause of all of my anxiety. Leandra continued to guide me through some powerful visualizations and reframing of false beliefs. This gave me almost instant relief and release. And I felt like I could finally let go of things and allow myself to heal.
Once the session finished, I felt like the glass ceiling was no longer there. I felt deeply calm and energized. And like all the parts of me had come together—I was finally whole. In the days after the session I could feel so many shifts. Some were massive and others were subtler. My fear and anxiety are not completely gone, but I can feel it fall away more and more each day. I can also feel how I am beginning to live more and more of my life.
Leandra also made sure that I could understand clearly what the root causes of my issue was. She was incredibly supporting throughout my session and afterwards. She was able to calmly hold so much space for me to grow and heal. She has a beautiful gift for this work and I cannot recommend her and the work she does enough.
| 3 MONTHS AFTER
About 3 months ago I did my first RTT session with Leandra.
We worked on my anxiety, especially in relation to my work. This was a big struggle for me—I found myself in a career that I really loved, but that fear was holding me back in a big way.
What I discovered through my session was that from a very young age, I was conditioned to believe that nothing I would do would give me the results I hoped for. And so, subconsciously, I was sabotaging everything I tried to do because deep down I believed that it would not work.
Now, 3 months later, I can still see the effects of the session unfolding in my work life all the time. I have made progressions that I think would normally have taken a year or longer…in 3 months! I find so much joy in the work that I do now. I believe in it fully. And I am able to speak about my work with confidence.
I do still experience doubts and anxieties! But somehow, they don’t feel heavy like they used to and I’m able to shake them off and do the things that scare me anyway.
This session was an incredible investment in my life.

About 2 months ago I did a hypnotherapy session with Leandra for my Anxiety and negative thinking.
It was absolutely mindblowing, and to be honest pretty overwhelming. I felt freaking great after the session but very tense. My mind was processing so much, but in a good way.
The weeks after the session I listened to the recording on a daily basis. After like 2-3 weeks I began to notice the difference. I started to face things that used to increase my anxiety level and that I couldn't face before. Leandra really pushed me over the edge with doing this. My mood was more regular and my self-worth increased.
The session was very convenient, it gave me a lot of good insights and knowledge about myself. Leandra is so supportive and empathetic. I didn't feel like I was going to therapy or something, she was so chill and down to earth. I had a lot of laughs with her( funny when I think about it haha). This actually teached me a very good lesson. Don't take everything too serious and also have very much fun. Sounds cheesy, but I can relate to it so much.
And I'm not even exaggerating to say that I have the feeling that she became more like a friend.
Thank you so much Leandra, for your loving support and your good vibes.
Much love, Keije
