What My Clients Say
Recovering from
Burnout & Perfectionism
After the RTT process, my burnout symptoms have eased, I’m more energetic and joyfully my true self. I dare to let go and I feel safe. I recognize my needs and behavior patterns better than before. I understand why I used to act the way I did and why I burned out.
Since the RTT process I’ve been able to influence things in a new way to prevent burnout. Chaotic situations or social interactions haven’t drained me like they used to, perhaps because my nervous system finally feels safe in those settings.
I recommend working with Aini! I especially appreciated that Aini clearly knows how to use her sensitivity and emotional intelligence to help others. It felt like we were “speaking the same language”.

From Fear of Abandonment
to Inner Safety
I sought out the RTT process to work through a deep fear of abandonment and the feeling that I am not enough as I am. We worked on this challenge for 3–4 months, which included a total of three RTT sessions and six integration sessions.
I began noticing changes already during the process, and since then they have only grown stronger. The panicked thoughts clearly decreased, my nervous system calmed down, and a new sense of ease entered my life. Only afterward did I realize how often I had been in a state of alertness, especially in social situations and close relationships.
The change has reflected across many areas of my life. I relate to myself with more compassion, and I’m able to find a sense of safety within myself even in difficult moments. I sleep better, and my relationships have gained more lightness and depth. The pressure I used to feel is gone, replaced by the experience that I can truly be myself and still be accepted and loved. Physical stress symptoms – such as stomach issues and teeth grinding – have also eased. At the same time, I’ve noticed my creativity returning and my energy levels rising now that constant hypervigilance no longer drains me.
Working with Aini felt safe from the very beginning. She met me with calmness and presence, and I always felt understood. She has a way of putting things into words that resonated directly with my own experience. It was easy to be honest and to express uncertainties and initial doubts about the new method, and these were always received with understanding and without judgment.
I appreciate that the work combines scientific understanding with practical tools.
The approach is versatile and feels genuinely individualized, as Aini drew from different therapeutic modalities depending on what each situation needed. Even though I had processed many of these issues before in talk therapy, this process finally created real change. I gained a deeper understanding of how my harmful thought patterns had formed. But it wasn’t just about understanding – different ways of integrating change shifted deeply rooted ways of seeing myself and the world in a way I never thought possible. The change truly became part of me.
The repetition of the audio recordings was especially meaningful for me. Through them, the new thought patterns began to feel natural, and the change became visible in my everyday life. I noticed that my way of relating to myself and my sense of safety transformed at a fundamental level.
I warmly recommend the RTT process and Aini to anyone who recognizes harmful thought or behavior patterns in themselves but longs for lasting, concrete change. This work has brought peace, freedom, and a new kind of connection to myself.

Autoimmune Symptoms Gone
I've had a tendency to repeatedly develop psoriasis and other skin-related conditions. In the winter of 2026, when I wanted to step up my fitness training, I developed severe skin symptoms that led to serious leg ulcers and eventually hospitalization. I was diagnosed with vasculitis, and although I was receiving medical treatment, the name of the diagnosis alone filled me with a kind of fear and dread.
Alongside that care, I reached out to RTT therapist Aini Palomo, and together we began to explore how things had reached this point. Vasculitis is an autoimmune condition, as is psoriasis, which I had struggled with especially in my youth. I'd had previous experience with therapy, but I'd found it superficial: I was offered ready-made solutions that never felt like my own.
With Aini, we focused on why my body was reacting this way. Under hypnosis, I was able to recognize experiences from across my life — especially from childhood — that had shaped me into someone who constantly tried to push past my own limits and excel at things I had no natural talent for. I carried a deep wound of feeling different, and I tried to connect with others through things like skiing and other physical activities, even though I'd felt clumsy and physically more limited than others my whole life.
This constant self-pushing beyond my physical limitations left me exposed to disappointment and failure. With Aini's help, I understood that my mind and body had begun to slow me down – not to punish me, but to stop and protect me. The autoimmune condition was my subconscious's and my body's way of protecting me from continuing the same pattern of overriding myself and pushing past my limits – and slowing me down.
Aini's approach was knowledgeable and professional. She helped me open up and work through the painful parts of my life in a way that, for the first time, felt truly effective. During the sessions I also experienced entirely new physical sensations, which deepened my sense that I really can influence both my body and my mind.
I continued the process by listening to the recording and moving, with Aini's support, toward my own innermost self. Time after time, I felt freer and more distanced from the conditions that had defined my life for so long. About a month after the process began, there was a clear turning point: alongside my ongoing medical care, my recovery started to progress rapidly. Right now, I am completely symptom-free.
With Aini's help, I reached the root causes that had steered me away from my own power and driven me to force myself into things that were never meant for me. Now I feel free to live in a way that honors my own strengths and limits.

Managing Anger &
Emotional Overwhelm
Before working with Aini, I felt completely overwhelmed by my emotions – especially anger. I often spiraled into looping thoughts, felt out of control, and it made me deeply unhappy. I wanted to learn how to manage these emotions in a healthier way.
Since the RTT process, I haven’t had an angry burst. I feel calmer, more grounded, and able to take a step back when I’m triggered. I now naturally take space and return to conversations, especially with my partner, in a much more constructive, peaceful way. Interestingly, the change in me also inspired a shift in him. He’s been communicating more openly and kindly too, so it’s really reinforced positive change in our relationship.
Working with Aini was a beautiful experience. Her presence is so calm and soothing, and her voice is perfect for hypnosis. The recording alone had such a grounding effect on me every day.
What I love about RTT is that it didn’t take years to see results. After just one session and committing to the daily audio, I experienced a real, lasting transformation. It’s unlike talk therapy, which I’ve done for years – it actually shifted something at the root.
I’d 100% recommend Aini to anyone who feels stuck or overwhelmed. It’s powerful work.
With gratitude,

From Daily Drinking to
Conscious Choice & Self-Care
I came to see Aini because I wanted to change my relationship with alcohol. I used to drink 1–2 glasses of wine or prosecco every evening to unwind after busy days, but I didn’t like how much I looked forward to it or how often it occupied my thoughts. I wanted to become a truly moderate and selective drinker, meaning no alcohol on regular evenings at home with my family.
After just one RTT session and consistently listening to the personalized recording for 21 days, the cravings disappeared. It felt like magic. No pressure, no inner battle, no obsessive thoughts. I simply stopped wanting it.
What surprised me most was how proud I started to feel. I enjoyed evenings without wine and felt stronger, more self-compassionate, and more committed to my health goals, like regular exercise and a better morning routine.
Working with Aini was a joy. She’s warm, intuitive, and professional, with a personal touch that made me feel deeply supported. Her voice in the recordings was so soothing. It felt like the connection grew stronger each day.
RTT has helped me shift old beliefs and patterns across many areas of life like family, work, and personal growth. Compared to other methods I’ve tried, like EMDR, RTT is faster, more focused, and truly transformational. One or two sessions can create lasting change.
I wholeheartedly recommend Aini and RTT to anyone ready to move forward and feel free.

From Insecurity & Criticism
to Self-Belief and Optimism
I struggled with a deep sense of inadequacy and not feeling like I'm enough that caused constant self‑criticism, insecurity, and drained a huge amount of my energy. I was also often worried and afraid of failing. I wanted to reach a state where I would approach challenges with enthusiasm and self‑belief, instead of deciding I would fail even before I began.
My mood improved, I slept better, and overall I felt more positive. Overthinking and worrying about other people’s opinions decreased, and I realized that my first thought when facing something new was no longer “I will fail.”
During the session, I was able to get to the core of my issues and understand where my thought patterns came from. I received answers to questions that had bothered me for a long time—questions I had not been able to resolve in talk therapy.
Working with Aini felt safe and natural. She has a gentle, human, and empathetic approach, and she listens carefully and addresses topics in a holistic way.
I would warmly recommend her and the RTT method. 😊

More Calm, More Time,
and Clearer Vision
I'm an entrepreneur, so my working times are quite flexible. My main issue was the anxiety of not being able to say no and filling my calendar too full of everything. I also wanted to help my physical and emotional vision to get better and recover from the screen time.
After 30 days, I have now space in my calendar and I can take even whole weekends off easily. I can also say no when I feel I need more time on my own. I haven't paid as much attention to my eyes, before I was constantly thinking that I can't see clearly. So I also my physical vision has got a little bit better, and I also feel that It's easier to relax the muscles in my eyes now. Overall my anxiety of everything has almost disappeared and I trust myself more now.
Working with Aini was really pleasant. She understood right away what my objective was and created a clear path for me to get there. The session itself was also a really nice experience. I had not been hypnotized before, so I did't know what to expect. It was pretty easy to get into the right state, and I felt safe throughout the whole session.
This method is much more than just one hypnotherapy session. Its a customized package, made just for your specific needs. The recording you get afterwards will make it easier to adapt to the subconscious programming and make the changes permanent. I'm really impressed and happy with the results, will do another programming in the near future.
I can recommend this to anyone who wants to get better understanding and change anything in their subconscious behaviour quickly and easily.

Setting Boundaries
RTT therapy helped me feel more confident and strengthened my belief in myself. My goal was to improve my ability to set boundaries and say no when needed. After three weeks, I noticed it was easier to act according to what I truly wanted and to say no in situations where I might previously have agreed against my own will.
I looked forward to listening to the recording every evening, it became a calming part of my bedtime routine. I also really appreciated working with Aini. She was professional and made me feel comfortable, especially as it was my first time trying this kind of therapy.
I find RTT an interesting and effective form of therapy, and I would recommend it to anyone who feels limited by certain beliefs about themselves and wants to approach things differently.

Overcoming Social Anxiety
As someone who has struggled with depression, anxiety and OCD, I have worked with multiple therapists over the years, practicing CBT, hypnosis and standard talking therapy, I was very curious about RTT as an alternative technique to these methods with quicker results.
During my consultation with Aini I focussed on limiting ideas and anxieties that I have battled with for a long time. And I have been totally amazed by the results.
The process was incredibly powerful and has had a profound effect on my life. Immediately after the session I felt free and as if a huge weight had been lifted from me. This feeling continued to improve and permeate through my life throughout the full process. I have seen huge benefits and tangible improvements in my every day life, my relationships and my career.
Rather than addressing the symptoms, RTT got straight to the root of the issue, cutting through what could have taken years of talking therapy in one session.
Aini was so easy to work with and put me at ease instantly. Her initial assessment session was incredibly thorough and the RTT session was so well prepared and accurate. The resulting audio was of very high quality and is now available for me to listen to whenever I feel the need, although I must admit that after the 3 week course, I rarely need to.
RTT has been groundbreaking for me, I truly feel like I have solved deep seated issues that I may never have achieved using other therapy measures. I would strongly recommend an RTT session with Aini as incredibly effective and life changing treatment with instant results.

"Six Weeks Later, I Got the Job" – From self-doubt and feeling stuck to showing up with confidence
I came to Aini when I was really struggling with self confidence in my career. I found it incredibly hard to promote myself in interviews and to believe in my own skills. I was constantly doubting myself and felt completely stuck.
The session with Aini was incredible. She guided me back to the root of my lack of self belief and I felt a shift immediately afterwards.
In the weeks that followed I listened to the personalised recording she made for me and slowly started to show up to interviews differently.
I'm so pleased to say that just 6 weeks later I got a job, and I have no doubt that our work together helped me get there.
I'm so grateful for Aini and would highly recommend her to anyone feeling stuck 🤍

Improved Focus + Eased Procrastination
Before working with Aini, I was struggling with focus and concentration, which is something that’s been a constant challenge for me due to ADHD. It was affecting my productivity at work and leaving me frustrated and drained. I really wanted to improve my ability to stay focused, finish tasks efficiently, and feel more mentally organized.
After just one RTT session with Aini, I began noticing changes surprisingly fast. She guided me with such professionalism and calm presence that I felt safe to open up and express things I hadn’t even been fully aware of. The session helped me uncover emotional blocks I didn’t realize were contributing to my focus issues. That alone brought a sense of clarity and self-compassion I wasn’t expecting.
The personalized hypnosis audio she created for me became a beautiful daily ritual. I usually listened to it before sleep, and it not only helped me feel deeply relaxed, but also improved the quality of my sleep, which was an unexpected but welcome benefit. Within just a few days, I started to feel more grounded and energized. The brain fog began to lift, and I found myself more able to concentrate at work. I had more motivation, clarity, and even a sense of calm confidence that made everyday tasks feel easier.
What I really appreciated about working with Aini is how present and intuitive she is. She knew how to ask the right questions and hold space in a way that felt very supportive and empowering. Her voice is perfect for hypnosis, soothing and reassuring, and the process felt both gentle and powerful.
RTT has been a revelation for me. Unlike talk therapy, which I’ve tried before and found helpful but slow, this method brought real, tangible results after just one session. It felt like something truly shifted on a deeper level. I now feel more in control of my mind rather than constantly battling against it.
I would absolutely recommend Aini to anyone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or simply wants to improve something in their life. What’s fascinating is how RTT can work on so many different levels so quickly. I’m definitely planning to do another session with her on a different topic. It’s a powerful and transformative experience, and I’m really grateful for it.

From Anxiety & Procrastination to Clarity and Action
I’ve struggled for a long time with difficulty starting tasks, procrastination, and anxiety. Working with Aini helped me recognize a wide range of emotions and unconscious internal blocks behind these challenges.
The anxiety I felt has decreased significantly, and taking action has started to feel easier than before. I’ve also learned to recognize my own emotions more clearly and process them instead of letting them build up and turn into anxiety.
Aini is an empathetic and skilled listener who brings clarity even to complex or unclear situations. She adapts naturally to the client’s needs and meets people with genuine presence.
I warmly recommend Aini to anyone who wants to understand themselves better and find ways to work through their challenges.

A Deep Shift Toward Inner Safety After Long Held Trauma
Perseverance and determination are often virtues, but when it comes to deep trauma, true courage also means asking for help and allowing yourself to receive it. Aini’s communication skills and her empathetic way of approaching painful topics created a safe environment where these experiences could be processed without feeling overwhelmed, and in a remarkably effective way from the very first session.
My own wounds are mostly connected to childhood insecurity, mistreatment, and experiences of worthlessness. Later in life, these have shown up as perfectionism, a constant need to achieve more, and difficulty slowing down and simply being. At the same time, receiving genuine love has often felt challenging.
With Aini, we were able to bring clarity into the midst of many traumas and identify the most painful points, which we then began to work through both on the level of the body and the mind. The session was long, but incredibly valuable and effective. Even during the first session, it felt like we reached something truly deep and meaningful.
Healing is not about performing, nor is it painless, but Aini’s session was a significant step toward a more whole and meaningful life. A life where the nervous system no longer has to be in constant alert mode, and where peace of mind gradually begins to find its place in everyday life.
I have gone through heavy experiences from childhood to adulthood, and these wounds will likely stay with me in some form forever. However, they no longer control my nervous system or my life in the same way. I am able to live and trust life in a new way, and to love myself with all my wounds. A powerful and immeasurably valuable experience, and a very strong recommendation to anyone who genuinely wants to reconnect with life as themselves without the constant extra burden on the nervous system and the mental effort it requires.
Thank you, Aini! ❤️

Decades of emotional weight, lifted in a month
For decades I carried heavy burdens through my life — sadness, low mood, and anxiety. I had, of course, sought help, and I did receive it to some extent. But never enough.
Then I heard about Aini and the methods she works with. We arranged to meet, and I began a month-long course of therapy. It was extraordinary. I trusted this young woman, and already in our very first session I reached the heart of it — straight to the source of my challenges, and there was no end to my tears. Yet the deep hypnotic state made it safe, and easier to face and process even the most difficult emotions. I could meet even the most painful things without fear in my body, and afterwards it felt so freeing.
It was a beginning that felt almost unbelievable, and from there our work continued over the month that followed. Being freed from a burden that had weighed on me for decades has brought light to the rest of my life. I value Aini's directness, her honesty, and her empathy. I value how completely she focuses on her client's situation; I value even her warm, comforting voice.
The sorrow I have carried has eased, the image I hold of myself has changed, and joy and a sense of freedom have entered my life — joy I can enjoy for the time I still have.

From Life-long Indecision
to Inner Peace & Confidence
I wanted help with the difficulty of making decisions and choosing between options. This has been an issue for almost my entire life. I had heard about RTT therapy, became interested, and eventually found Aini. Her pleasant presence inspired trust and a sense of safety from the very first contact.
Already during the first session, the therapy process flowed smoothly in an atmosphere of trust. And I can honestly say that the results began to show immediately after the first hypnosis session. Within the first few days, I noticed in my everyday life how small choices or decisions felt easier. I no longer mirrored everything through other people’s opinions or what they might think. Little by little, many decisions that I previously would have overthought or even postponed – wondering what someone else might say – started to come naturally. I began making my own decisions. It also became easy to tell myself: now you decide. I also feel a new kind of inner peace.
Of course, difficult decisions and moments of indecision still occur, but overall I feel more determined and more confident in being myself. I also feel more secure and balanced, and week by week I am more satisfied with myself / it is easier for me to accept myself.
Based on my experience, I can warmly recommend RTT therapy to everyone, and working with Aini was smooth, attentive to the client, and safe. Her approach is very empathetic.

Physical symptom: Relief from Years of Somatic Cough
I had a severe cough that had been disturbing and limiting my life for years. It has been difficult for me to manage normal everyday life because of this persistent and disruptive cough, which restricts many things and is especially socially embarrassing. I haven’t been able to exercise normally – running and other aerobic activities have been impossible, and at times even walking has been challenging because of the cough. When the cough is at its worst, even speaking triggers it, so the problem has been truly life‑limiting and restrictive.
The cough has been difficult to diagnose, and it has been treated with various medications over several years without results. I became interested in the RTT method when I heard that it can also be used to support the relief of physical symptoms. Aini was clearly very knowledgeable about RTT and how to apply it to physical issues, which gave me confidence and trust. She is wonderfully gentle and calm. Working with her felt reliable and safe.
Right after the session, I felt incredibly relieved and good. I felt free and empowered. The cough eased, and my breathing became freer and easier. I felt healthy and well. After the session,
I was able to run for the first time in a long while, and the cough no longer restricted my life or stopped me from doing things the way it used to. I feel more confident and, best of all, healthy.
What I especially like about the RTT method is that it goes straight to the root and origin of the problem and finds solutions there.
I recommend RTT therapy – and especially Aini – to anyone who feels that there are limiting factors or beliefs in their life, whether they are physical symptoms or psychological blocks. Working with Aini was easy and effortless. She is truly committed to her clients and stayed in close contact throughout the entire process. Her voice is incredibly gentle, calm, and safe – absolutely perfect for hypnosis.

Letting Go Of Past Regrets
I am very satisfied with the process I went through with Aini's guidance, which provided me with a new lens and perspective, through advanced but intuitive visualization techniques.
I am happy with the results so far which helped me move on. I particularly appreciated the smooth, caring facilitation in the process from Aini and enjoyed her approach to conduct the whole process, a good mix of true professionalism and genuine care & friendliness.
