A quick guide to understanding this powerful healing modality.

We all carry wounds—some from childhood, others from painful life experiences, and even some inherited through epigenetics from our parents and ancestors. Maybe you’ve tried to shift certain patterns, change behaviors, or heal from trauma, but something still feels stuck.

That’s where Root Cause Therapy comes in. Rather than treating symptoms on the surface, it helps you gently reach the root of your pain—where true healing can begin.

What Is Root Cause Therapy?

Root Cause Therapy (RCT) is a trauma healing modality that works with the subconscious mind and the body’s innate wisdom It helps uncover and transform limiting beliefs, suppressed memories, and unresolved emotions that may be shaping your current experiences—often without you realizing it.

Unlike talk therapy, Root Cause Therapy offers a more direct path to healing by gently guiding you to the root memory or moment where a core belief was formed. With intuitive facilitation, you can safely revisit the event, release the emotional wound, and liberate yourself from its hold on the present.

Each session is an intentional space for exploration and release. Here’s what you can expect:

  • 1. Clarity & Connection – We begin with a grounded conversation about what’s showing up for you—emotionally, physically, or behaviorally.
  • 2. Subconscious Discovery – Using muscle testing or guided inquiry, we identify the limiting beliefs or negative recurring patterns that are ready to be worked on.
  • 3. Regression & Resolution – You’re gently guided back to the first event to release the trapped emotions and transform the old belief that was formed.
  • 4. Integration – With the trapped emotion no longer held in your nervous system, you’ll begin to feel a greater sense of ease, clarity, and inner alignment in your daily life.

This is not about re-living trauma—it's about completing what was once left unresolved.

An Incredible Story of Transformation: “It is not Safe to Lose Weight”

A woman in her 30s, came to us for Root Cause Therapy after more than a decade of struggling with weight loss. She had tried countless diets, fitness plans, and mindset programs—but no matter what she did, the weight always returned.

During her session, we found the limiting belief that:
“It is not safe to lose weight.”

As we explored this belief through regression, a painful event emerged—she had experienced sexual abuse in her childhood. Unconsciously, her body had held onto extra weight as a form of protection, as a way to stay hidden and feel safe.

This coping mechanism, though unconscious, had kept her safe for years. But now, it was holding her back

Through regression and deep emotional release, we were able to process the trauma and shift the belief. Her nervous system began to feel safe again. In the months that followed, she began shedding not just physical weight—but shame, fear, and self-blame.

Her story is one of courage, empowerment, and reclaiming her body as a safe and sacred home.
