These are stories of people I love,
their pain and their journey to healing.
Mother & Best Friend
Olga, Bamboo’s best friend
What led you to working with Bamboo?
I had not been well for a long time. The relationship I had with my family members felt strained - I felt like I was distancing myself from them for no apparent reason. I have not been feeling hopeful and motivated, I was disappointed and uninterested in my bachelor’s degree, I felt like my life lacked purpose, and the worst thing was that I could not figure out why I felt this way.
What was working with her like?
I already have had experience with different therapists, and it did not really lead anywhere, so frankly I was very skeptical about the RTT method. However, during our first session, Bamboo made sure that I was comfortable and relaxed, and I did not feel pressured into doing or saying anything, which sometimes was not the case with my previous therapists.
Though I was hesitant before our session, by the end of it, I was crying. Bamboo gently guided me through suppressed pain and fears which were stopping me from moving forward towards my purpose in life. I faced my subconsciousness and the suffering that I have been trying to bury all this time. It was difficult to face the harsh truth and relive some memories, but also liberating and definitely worth it.
What was your life like after the session?
I made sure to follow Bamboo ’s instructions after our session, and after a couple of weeks I felt like I finally started untying the knot. Our therapy session was not some magic pill that made my problems go away, but rather made me face them myself. I lacked confidence and was a professional people-pleaser, which ended up negatively influencing my relationship with my family.
I started to learn to stand my ground and make my boundaries clear. I was finally able to detach myself from expectations that my family had made about me and my career, and started moving towards my own path. I found the confidence to pursue a degree that I genuinely find interesting, even if it was not aligned with what everyone else wanted me to do.
There have been doubts and fears - but also a lot of relief, gratitude and hopefulness. The RTT session with Bamboo was a much needed boost in my life, as she was the first therapist to actually get to the root of the issue and guide me through it.
Trang Ha, Bamboo’s mom
What led you to working with Bamboo?
It was a difficult time in my life. I had serious health issues and problems with my then-husband, which only made them worse. My health took a turn when he announced he wanted a divorce. I wasn’t doing well mentally or physically. I felt stuck. I didn’t know what to do, how to move forward or what moving forward looked like. I struggled getting to sleep and had barely any social life.
I couldn’t do anything relating to my then-husband without feeling anguish and fear. I would feel panicked at any email or message I received from him. I would have panic attacks just hearing the sound of his voice, whether I was talking to him in person or over the phone. I was tired, so tired. I was constantly on edge and could start a fit of tears or anger at the drop of a hat. I wanted relief, but nothing in my life would give.
So, I asked my daughter to help me stop fearing my husband using RTT hypnotherapy.
What was working with her like?
I was unsure about doing an RTT session because I didn’t think it would work. I was sceptical about hypnotherapy because it sounded too good to be true, but also because at the time, my daughter was just learning. I did want it to work, though, for her sake and mine. Coming into the session, I felt uneasy. The concept of hypnosis and me being under it was not very reassuring.
As the session started, I relaxed and was at ease with the sound of my daughter’s voice guiding me. She held space as I went back on painful yet meaningful memories and defining moments, which had solidified my fear of my then-husband.
What was your life like after the session?
My life has, since the session, changed tremendously. My sleep and mood improved. I stopped having panic attacks and being afraid of hearing from my then-husband or being anxious seeing him in person. My life is honestly unrecognisable.
I see my friends more regularly and am now able to open up to them about both good and bad things happening. I have regained confidence in myself and stopped taking the blame for the end of my marriage, my then-husband’s mistreatment and other people’s failings. I haven’t felt this light in decades and this, despite from the situation being resolved as of me writing this testimonial.
All I can say is thank you. Thank you Bamboo, my daughter, for learning hypnotherapy and being there for me.
