About Ivanda
Hi, I am certified Hypnotherapist & RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) Therapist graduated with Marisa Peer School. I am very grateful you have shown interest in me as your potential Therapist (and very possible YOUR LAST THERAPIST!) – Thank you & welcome to my virtual home.
Who am I?
My roots come from Latvia, but I have been calling Scotland my home since 2011, I moved here with the aim to study.
I graduated MSc Chemistry from Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh & since then I have been working in R&D sector, but now I have added on an additional skill set to help people even more impactfully & directly.
One of the main reasons for me to learn RTT method was to help myself to start with as I begun to suffer from anxiety & depression & I kept falling back into the same hamster wheel of negative cycle that was hard to break!
I had gone through all resources & support available through NHS (medication, CBT, appointments with mental health nurse & psychologist), but it only provided me with short term relief.
I reached a point of “I have had enough” & there must be more to life than this!
So I started my research into alternative options & found Marisa Peer RTT method by simple internet search. Reading through all testimonials & rapid transformations that her method was able to achieve, I had to try it!
And so I found a local RTT Therapist, had 3 powerful sessions & the rest is history – a year later I symbolically burnt depression during Summer Solstice Festival in Latvia.
As the saying goes: “The one who seeks finds!”
I decided that I have to learn this method & become RTT Therapist & Hypnotherapist myself as this topic fascinates me.
I feel great passion, purpose & huge demand given the mental health statistics – 1 in 4 adults experience mental illness at some point during their lifetime according to the Department of Health, NHS England 2021.
So learning RTT was one of the best decisions that I made – have a look at TESTIMONIALS section, those kind of results keep me FIRED UP & feeling deeply proud & humble for every opportunity that you as my client are trusting me with – I know how pain feels & I make it my priority to free you from it ASAP!
Who am I really?
I keep asking this question almost every day & I think this will be never-ending process. I now know for sure that “I am enough” & that in itself is enough.
Below is how my closest & dearest describe me:
My Values BALANCE, CONNECTION, GROWTH, RESOURCEFULNESS, RESPONSIBILITY, NATURE
One of my core values is – BALANCE. My horoscope sign is Libra & if you know anything about Libras, then note that we love being in balance – not too hot or cold, not too much or too little, just the right amount of anything & everything! And this requirement comes in for any aspect of life either professional & personal.
CONNECTION – it is crucial for me to feel connected to myself, to the people that I love & wider community as I highly value personal & professional relationships that allow me to GROW & learn from my mistakes, from people around me sharing the wisdom because similarly if you look in the nature – if you don’t grow, you start to die!
And NATURE is a great healer! Have you ever asked yourself, why do we feel better when we step into the nature? I think it is because we don’t put expectations on it! We know that nature is chaotic, we accept it & embrace what comes our way either it’s a singing bird on a tree brunch or a bee on a flower – we don’t think, oh, that flower should not be there (unless it’s your garden, where we tend to introduce control), do we?! We accept it & move on, so letting go of an illusion of control & being happy with life as it comes is a great skill for us all to learn to master!
RESOURCEFULNESS is a must have! I am equipped & now have plenty of tools in my tool box & supportive people around me to go through any storm or battle that life throws at us & I take full RESPONSIBILITY about my actions & inactions, words & pictures in my head, especially now that I know better, I must do better to utilize the power of our mind. We all are responsible for our happiness – it is an inside job! You will not find happiness in the outside world, it is a state of mind & feeling that you generate & cultivate within you.
