Money Blocks
After a lifetime shaped by childhood trauma, I turned to Karen Dempster for Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) to address my money blocks. I’d always excelled at earning—securing well-paid jobs and trading currency markets—but I’d sabotage myself, losing large sums through high-risk and revenge trading.
Traditional counselling over 40+ years never touched the root like RTT did. In my first session, Karen guided me back to familiar events, but instead of just talking, she helped me verbalize and release pent-up emotions. The hypnosis and reprogramming were unlike anything I’d experienced—effective and deeply caring. Weeks later, I couldn’t fully recall those events; something had finally shifted.
Karen’s approach gave me clarity and direction. I no longer revenge trade, and though I’m still refining my strategy, I’ve avoided the losses I’d have faced pre-RTT.
I now invest smarter, building XRP and BTC holdings with a clear goal—abundance, not just money. Karen’s confidence in her work, paired with her genuine care, transformed me in ways decades of therapy couldn’t. I’m finally focused on wealth’s ebb and flow, not self-sabotage.

Smoking/Vaping
I was a little skeptical before my appointment with Karen but now, as I approach one year of being smoke/vape free, I can honestly say it was the best thing I’ve ever done. It’s like she’s given me a super power! I’m feeling great and can’t recommend Karen enough!

Healing from Abuse
“Decades of therapy couldn’t reach the festering wounds of my childhood sexual assaults. While I carried the shame, and silently raged, my abuser thrived, unpunished. Then came Karen Dempster’s RTT. Her hypnosis let me scream the unsaid, breaking its chokehold. With fierce compassion, Karen made me feel truly seen, guiding me to rewire the self-worth stolen from me.
The shift was seismic—suddenly, it was as if my Fairy Godmother had waved her wand, setting me free. Where guilt once festered, I now feel power. RTT didn’t erase the past, but it released its grip.
Karen’s work is a lifeline for survivors, turning pain into profound healing.”

Quit Vaping
“I had one Rapid Transformational Hypnotherapy session to quit vaping and I haven’t vaped since. No cravings, sleeping much better and feeling good. Thanks Karen”

Stress Relief
“I am so grateful for my session with Karen. My life has been incredibly challenging, and her audio recording brings me a deep sense of calm.
What sets Karen apart from traditional counselling is how her method goes beyond just talking about events—it taps into the body’s response, creating real and lasting change. I am so glad I went through this process with her during such a difficult time. I have no doubt it made my journey much easier than trying to push through on my own.
I’ve already recommended Karen to others who feel stuck, and I will absolutely return for a follow-up when I get through the next few months. The audio is incredible—I listen to it, and my whole body instantly relaxes. It’s truly amazing.
Thank you, Karen, for your incredible work and support—you’ve made a huge difference in my life.”

Weight Loss
Since my session with Karen, I’ve been listening to the audio every day, and it has truly helped me stay on track. I haven’t touched chocolate or sugar since I left her office! My relationship with food has completely shifted—I no longer drink during the week and rarely on weekends.
If I’m going out at night, I listen to the audio in the afternoon to keep me focused. While my weight loss has been slow, it’s steady, and I’m okay with that because I know I’m creating lasting, healthy habits.
Everything feels good, and I’m committed to this new lifestyle. Thank you, Karen, for helping me regain control and make real, sustainable changes!

Quit Vaping
I had tried giving up vaping several times on my own but wasn’t successful. One Hypnotherapy session with Karen is all it took for me to stop vaping. I haven’t vaped since and it’s been over a year now. I am able to go out with mates, have a few beers and not have any interest in vaping. It really helped to have an audio to listen to. I’m sure it made my mind stronger. She added some confidence stuff in it also which has been helpful. I would recommend Karen if you want to stop vaping.

I originally came to Karen for wellbeing and health focusing on weight. I highly recommend this phenomenal service for those who are ready to step in to the next version of yourself.
Karen is a very experienced therapist providing a safe, secure space to work through and release blocks. Each session is tailor made and Karen is there to support, guide and cheer you along while providing additional knowledge and education.
This work has changed my mindset and positively influenced every aspect of my life. Weight was a by product and Karen has helped me gain perspective and balance. All of the small changes in nutrition, fitness, health and wellbeing is now how I live every day. I respect my body and I am so intune.
I now realise it was never about weight. Through the tools I have learnt from Karen I confidently balance all areas of my life. I am starting to see huge results and opportunities arise from living aligned. It has been a transformative experience, very valuable and rewarding.
Thank you Karen, you are an amazing person. I am so grateful you are offering this service to help others release, let go, heal and evolve.

Weight Loss
So happy to get this amazing testimonial from Lauren after her journey with me. “I had yo-yo dieted for decades, wanting to be slim, healthy and fit but never able to stick with something long enough to see lasting results. I’d find motivation for a few weeks to a few months, then an event or set back would lead me to fall quickly back into old patterns of poor diet choices and self-loathing. I could see I was being self-destructive but I didn’t understand why. If I want it, why is it so hard to achieve it and to stick with it?
I’d also experienced periods of low confidence and self-esteem throughout my life. Despite other people seeing me as confident and attractive, I saw myself in a completely different way and after doing the same thing year after year but with no lasting results, I knew it was time to do something different and that meant understanding the root cause.
I’d always known of hypnotherapy, and though it seemed drastic to me at the time, drastic is what I needed. I found Karen online and was immediately struck by her warmth, down to earth nature and our mutual experiences with similar struggles. She understood me, and she knew she could heal me and so I began a powerful healing journey to understand the source of my limiting beliefs. Under her gentle, careful guidance, I have now healed the wounds that had infected every facet of my life, including my friendships, romantic relationships, my sense of self, my career and my aspirations for the future.
In only 2 months I have lost more than 10kg, I’m exercising daily and have an entirely new attitude towards food, myself and my future. I feel motivated and inspired and am seeing incredible changes in my confidence at home and at work. My daily audio gently reinforces my new beliefs that I am enough, and I know at my core that my subconscious mind now believes this too.
What sounded radical at first was anything but, and having such a great experience myself, I have recommended Karen to a friend who is now on her own healing journey.
Without reservation or hesitation, I cannot recommend Karen enough. She is highly skilled at what she does, makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed and removes any preconceptions you may have about being under hypnosis.
You’ve tried everything else and it hasn’t worked. Now it’s time to do what does.

Weight Loss
I signed up two months ago for the weight loss RTT program with Karen as I was struggling with binge eating and self sabotage with weight loss. After my first session it became apparent that I had unresolved trauma from abuse, and I am so grateful to Karen for guiding me through the sessions to release this trauma and help navigate my healing journey. Karen provides an at home audio to listen to everyday and I have found this amazing in reinforcing all the strategies and healing I was working on. She also sends through emails with great science based information on weightloss and mindset. Her nutrition background is great too as she has awesome advice on healthy eating.
Each session was tailored to my personal needs, and Karen was so generous with her time and knowledge. She is so easy to relate to and has a real knack of putting you at ease and making you feel safe, which is vital when communicating from such a vulnerable place.
I can honestly say that the 3 sessions I had with Karen have given me so much resolution and peace, I doubt I would have ever had that result from traditional talk therapy/counselling. I have come such a long way with my eating and am far more mindful of what I’m putting in my mouth. I would definitely recommend RTT with Karen to anyone with unresolved trauma, addiction problems, anxiety or depression. Really anything that is stopping you from living your best life.
Thank you so much Karen!

Weight Loss
“After years of failed weight loss attempts I decided to try RTT hypnotherapy with Karen. As she also has a background in nutrition, it was the perfect fit. I had previously had difficulty with self-sabotage and was unable to be consistent with any diet or lifestyle change I had tried. After just my first session, Karen was able to help me to understand the subconscious reasons for my inability to lose weight and start working immediately to help overcome these. Having a daily audio recording to consolidate what we had worked on in the hypnosis session was so beneficial and was really easy to incorporate into my day.
Karen then kept in contact over the weeks between each session and her support meant I felt like I wasn’t alone in my journey. RTT hypnotherapy has helped me to overcome my overeating issues by getting to the root cause of why I was doing it. I have had a shift in my mindset which was the missing piece of my weight loss puzzle. I can honestly say this time I am going to succeed – my eating habits and thoughts around food have changed completely. 100% recommend!”

People Pleasing/Anxiety
“I have consciously known for years the cause for my anxiety, and have engaged in therapy, self love practices as well as having an amazing upbringing that encouraged me to be exactly who I am. My family are known for their work ethic, caring nature and being fearless rule breakers to follow a happy life – I was lucky to have a happy childhood.
No matter how many times I tried to consciously let go of what the source was, it wasn’t till Karen guided me through reframing that I could let it go. My unconscious thinking is reframed and reinforced daily to follow this new pattern – I can’t believe the changes I’m experiencing. This is one of the most powerful experiences I have ever had, and I live a very varied life. I’m not trapped in high functioning Anxiety anymore, and I can’t thank Karen enough.”
– Nicole, Invercargill
Anxiety and Imposter Syndrome
“On a level, it’s hard to put in writing exactly what Karen is doing for her clients, but one thing is for sure, there is some magic here ……
My background is one of a lot of trauma (as is many peoples’), and with that trauma has come extraordinary self-doubt, self-loathing and major anxiety over the years.
I have tried traditional therapy, along with a lot of meditation and other methodologies over the years, all of them have helped on some level. However what I found with RTT is that it has the ability to get to the root cause of the issue very quickly. Its been very successful at reducing the anxiety and increasing my sense of self-worth. I can now really see the light through the darkness and it doesn’t feel like there is much effort needed from my part, considering the effort and time I needed for traditional therapy.
The upshot of all of this is, what has often been a period of years for me with traditional therapy, this RTT has been a therapy that is transformational in a really short period of time. I would suggest anyone, considering helping themselves to a better life that I would definitely recommend Karen and RTT as a road that you should go down. Thanks again Karen for all your help.”

Weight Reduction
“Thanks Karen for my RTT session for Weight Loss. I had been struggling with self-sabotage and I just couldn’t understand that when I lost weight, it almost felt like I deliberately put the weight back on. So I was really struggling to understand what was causing me to repeat the same old cycles and behaviours, and I knew it had to be something psychological. Hypnotherapy really helped me understand why I was doing this. I found the experience so healing in many different ways. Thankyou Karen.”
– Jackie, Invercargill, NZ
Thyroid (Hashimoto)
“Before meeting Karen, I had tried so many medications and other therapies to help fix my Thyroid issues but none were anywhere near as successful as RTT. Hypnotherapy was actually so relaxing, I felt extremely safe. I loved the fact that I was in control the whole time and I knew exactly what was going on and what I was saying. I felt completely at ease and protected through the whole session. Once we found the root cause and I understood the beliefs that I had taken on that caused my Thyroid issue, I was able to let them go. Karen has helped me form new beliefs in place of old, limiting beliefs. I can’t be more thankful to her, I feel free and healed and feeling much healthier than I have in years. I only wish I had found Karen and RTT years ago.”
– Helen, Melbourne, Australia
Money Blocks
“Karen provided a beautiful, relaxing space for our RTT session. Under hypnosis I felt instantly at ease and comfortable to explore a deeper understanding of my Money Blocks. Karen is compassionate, non-judgemental and very professional. She gently guides you through this process, she is patient and gifted at what she does, it is really quite astounding what you discover. I would highly recommend having an RTT session with Karen. Thankyou Karen for helping shift my limiting beliefs.”
– Rebecca, Queenstown, NZ
Confidence and Relationships
“Prior to my RTT session with Karen, I was struggling with Confidence issues, I was a people pleaser, I did not believe in myself, I hated being on my own, I was struggling with relationships. In my RTT session I really felt I was safe and could trust Karen. Karen you truly helped me to move from surviving to thriving. I can’t thank you enough.”
– Jackie, London, UK
