Root Cause Therapy
Root Cause Therapy (RCT) identifies and addresses the root causes of habits, behaviours, and fears. By resolving the underlying drivers, we remove the personal blocks that hold you back, allowing you to move forward with purpose and clarity.
We focus on the unconscious mind, the part of you that manages 90% of your behaviour, including your automatic habits, memories, and physical responses.
It is a guided process where you access your internal database of memories in a calm, controlled way. This allows you to resolve old imprints in a safe environment that focuses on relief rather than re-living the past.
Who it is for?
Whether you have spent years analysing your past or simply feel “stuck” without knowing why, Root Cause Therapy provides a path to clarity. It is designed for those seeking lasting change and a final release from the underlying patterns that have been governing their lives.
Areas RCT has shown major success:
- Personal Growth & Purpose: Moving from a place of “just getting by” to feeling a sense of peace, joy, and direction.
- Navigating High Pressure: Professionals and leaders dealing with “imposter syndrome,” procrastination, or the fear of being seen.
- Breaking Repeating Patterns: People who find themselves stuck in cycles of people-pleasing, perfectionism, or “money blocks.”
- Emotional Support: Those looking for relief from the weight of anxiety, low mood, or persistent negative self-talk.
- Lasting Behavioural Change: Anyone struggling with habits or addictions (be it substances or behaviours) that feel beyond their willpower to stop.
How it works
We use a structured but gentle approach to help your mind and body get on the same page:
- Deep Change: We acknowledge that while your conscious mind wants to change, your unconscious mind often stays stuck in old patterns to keep you “safe.”
- Emotional Map: We identify the specific emotions (like anger, guilt, or fear) that are currently acting as your “baseline” and work to shift that baseline toward neutrality and peace.
- Accessing the Root: While fully awake and in control, you are guided to notice the early experiences or “blueprints” where a current habit first started.
- Self-Led Release: I don’t “fix” you; instead, I facilitate a space where you are guided to release the trapped emotions yourself, allowing your system to finally let go of the old weight.
Why it is different
RCT work focuses on resolving the underlying causes, so that the need for coping mechanisms naturally fall away.
By widening your “window of tolerance,” you will build a greater capacity to stay present with your emotions without becoming overwhelmed or shutting down.
We explore the hidden “payoffs” your brain seeks through old habits, easing the internal struggle and making it simpler to choose a new path.
Ultimately, by clearing the baggage of the past, you stop projecting old fears onto what’s ahead, giving you the clarity to move into your future with genuine intention.
You can finally let go what has been driving you and live a life of joy and peace.

FAQ
Want to know more? Below are some common questions we often get:
How is RCT different from traditional talk therapy?
Traditional talk therapy works primarily with the conscious mind. While helpful for gaining awareness, it often misses the "emotional baggage" stored in the subconscious. RCT uses a structured, methodical approach to communicate with the subconscious and release somatic (physical) symptoms and trapped emotions.
What exactly is the "Root Cause"?
The "root cause" is the initial event or moment where a specific belief or emotional pattern was created. Current struggles, like anxiety or low self-esteem, are often just symptoms of an "emotional imprint" left by a past experience. RCT helps find that specific moment to resolve the issue at its source rather than just managing symptoms.
How many sessions will I need?
Everyone's journey is unique. However, because RCT targets the root cause directly, many clients report significant shifts in just 3 to 6 sessions. Programmes are tailored to your specific goals and pace.
How does it help with fears and phobias?
Phobias are often "learned" responses to a past event, even if not consciously remembered. RCT uses timeline therapy and regression to identify that initial event, allowing you to re-process the emotion safely so the fear no longer triggers your nervous system.
Is it safe for someone with trauma or PTSD?
es, RCT is a trauma-informed modality. It allows you to process the emotion of a trauma without having to "re-live" the event in graphic detail by focusing on releasing the charge held in the body.
Can it be done online?
Yes. RCT is highly effective via video call because the work happens within your own mind and body.
Is Root Cause Therapy a type of hypnosis?
It shares similarities with hypnotherapy as it works with the subconscious, but it is much more interactive. You remain fully conscious, awake, and in control throughout the session as an active participant.
Can I be forced to remember things?
No. Your unconscious mind acts as a natural gatekeeper and will only allow you to heal what you are ready for. Breakthroughs are never forced.
How will I feel after a session?
Everyone's "emotional metabolism" is different. You may feel immediate relief, lightness, or clarity. Because deep-seated energy is shifting, it is also common to feel "vivid" or slightly tired as your system re-adjusts.
