Traditional psychology has always been a great tool in my life. However, I often felt it takes too long. The results aren’t really visible, and it’s mostly about talking. Just when it gets deep, the session ends, leaving the real work for “next time.”
I first heard of RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) when a friend asked if someone she knew could practise RTT with me. She was finishing her studies in London at the time. After the session, she became my friend too. RTT is a hybrid therapy that combines hypnosis, NLP, CBT, and psychotherapy. Its goal is to reprogram the subconscious mind for rapid results.
Because I love experimenting with new methods, I said yes immediately. I felt excited. During the RTT session, I noticed it was very deep and truly transformative – unlike any traditional therapy session I had before. It touched the root causes in my subconscious and changed how I saw myself in just one session.
LLater, when I moved back to Hungary for a while, I heard about Ultra-Brief Therapy.
This solution-focused method aims to achieve breakthroughs in one or very few sessions. I studied it for a year and became a certified consultant. It also focuses on what really matters in the here and now, without getting lost in endless analysis.
Overall, these experiences changed how I approach coaching and therapy. I believe everyone deserves to know there are modern therapy methods that can create deep, fast, and lasting transformation.
💡 What Are Modern Therapy Methods?
Modern therapy methods are approaches that combine psychology, neuroscience, hypnosis, and solution-focused techniques to create rapid changes in mindset, beliefs, and emotional patterns. Unlike traditional talk therapy, which often takes years to unpack issues, these methods aim for:
✅ Faster breakthroughs
✅ Direct access to subconscious beliefs
✅ Resolving root causes instead of symptoms
✅ Empowering you to take back control over your life
To give you a clearer picture, here are some of the most widely used modern therapy methods and how each works:
💡 RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy)
Firstly, RTT is a hybrid therapy developed by Marisa Peer. It combines hypnosis, NLP, CBT, and psychotherapy techniques to achieve fast and lasting transformation. In RTT sessions, the therapist guides you into a relaxed state to access your subconscious mind. There, you identify the root cause of an issue and reprogram limiting beliefs into empowering ones.

🌈 EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing)
Originally developed for PTSD, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (eye movements, tapping, or sounds) while recalling distressing memories. This process helps reprocess traumatic experiences so they no longer trigger intense emotional responses. EMDR is now widely used for anxiety, phobias, and limiting beliefs.

✨ Ultra-Brief Therapy
Known in Hungary and Canada, Ultra-Brief Therapy focuses on achieving maximum results within a single or very few sessions. It is solution-focused and goal-oriented, helping clients clarify their issues and desired outcomes rapidly, with techniques that often integrate systemic approaches and powerful reframing.
