Certified Transformational Hypnotherapist & Coach

Behind these numbers are real people—often stuck in old patterns, even after therapy.

If you’re ready for a deeper change, you’re in the right place.

Talk therapy works with what you can already name. Most of what drives anxiety, burnout, and old patterns runs underneath that — beliefs and habits that formed before you had words for them. Some of my clients arrive after years of therapy that helped them understand the pattern clearly without ever changing its roots.

My work follows the same order a tree does: heal the roots first — the beliefs that formed before you had words for them. Then prune what grew from them to help you cope, but no longer serves you. Then deliberately grow what’s healthy in its place, so the change holds on its own.

Let me show you what that looks like for you specifically — the first step is a free discovery call.

What I help with

Three primary specialisms

While these three areas are most requested, my core process addresses childhood trauma and sleep issues at their root, allowing clients to experience profound, lasting relief across many other challenges, including depression, anger issues, and chronic physical issues.

About

Hi, I'm Olga. I work with the subconscious — where the real patterns live.

For eight years, I’ve helped clients in the Netherlands and abroad shift what talk therapy couldn’t quite reach: the felt sense beneath anxiety, the emotional roots of eating, the burnout the body still carries.

My structured 5-session program is built for adults who already know what’s wrong — and need something that finally moves it.

FAQs: Transformational Hypnotherapy

What does hypnosis feel like?

The experience feels different for different people. Some people feel a floating sensation, some do not. Others may feel sleepy, some do not. Most people feel relaxed and at ease. What’s most important to know is that how you feel isn’t an indicator of how effective it is. Regardless of what it feels like – it’s working. I promise.

Will I remember what happened in hypnosis?

Yes, definitely you will remember what you experienced in hypnosis.

Can I get “stuck” in hypnosis?

No, you cannot get stuck in hypnosis! That’s an old wive’s tale. You have complete control the whole time. You can talk, move your body, get a tissue, and even get up and leave (I’ve had clients who had to stop the session to go pee!).

What if instead of the current problem, I will get an even worse one?

For example, “What if instead of being anxious around people I will become arrogant and mean?” The current issue that you experience in your life is the result of how you felt and thought as a child. As a child, you were not able to adequately evaluate situations and events in your life. Also, you were weak and dependent on adults. That’s why you had only strictly limited choices of how to react and behave. But as an adult, you have developed your understanding ability. And your capabilities and choices are incomparably greater than in childhood. Using transformational hypnotherapy, you form new a new way of thinking and behaving that is based on your advanced understanding and values and that serves you in achieving the life you wish for yourself.

What if I think I already know the reasons behind my issue?

What makes hypnotherapy amazing is that even if you think you know the reason, you see it in a COMPLETELY new way. That’s what allows you to change the meaning and ultimately, change your beliefs. And many clients go back to scenes that are totally different than what they expected. Just relax and trust that your subconscious mind will show you exactly what you need to see.

When will I start to see changes?

There are 3 types of change and every person has a unique experience with those: Immediate: You feel a massive shift right away – immediate changes in your physiology, thoughts, and behaviors right in the session. Incremental: You see consistent shifts every day, or over time. Retroactive: You don’t see the shifts right away and then one day you suddenly look back and see all of the things that are different in your life.

How does online hypnotherapy work?

You can choose to work with me in person in The Hague or online. During an online session, you stay in the comfort of your own home and we use a Zoom video call. Hearing what you tell and seeing you give me all information I need to guide the whole process and respond to any of your needs. If by any chance our call gets disconnected you may drift into sleep if you’re really relaxed, but eventually, you’ll notice that you’re not hearing my voice and open your eyes.

Is hypnotherapy effective?

Yes. Research shows hypnotherapy can create lasting changes in thoughts, feelings, and behavior. My clients often notice results within just a few sessions – from relief of anxiety to better sleep and weight control. Read my Google reviews or explore blog posts to see real-life examples.

How many hypnotherapy sessions do I need?

Most issues are addressed in my structured 5-session program, which helps resolve the root causes and create lasting strategies for life. Some cases, like working with children, may be resolved in a single session.

What can hypnotherapy help with?

Hypnotherapy is highly effective for both emotional and physical issues, including:
Anxiety and depression
Insomnia and sleep problems
Weight management
Addictions such as smoking or alcohol
Burnout and stress
Tics, OCD, or other neuropsychiatric conditions

How much does hypnotherapy cost?

The cost of hypnotherapy depends on the specific path you choose, and you will find a full breakdown of options on the pricing page. While most Dutch insurers do not reimburse these services directly, many clients secure coverage through an employer wellbeing budget or deduct the expense as a business cost if self-employed. All details are outlined on the pricing page. Because cost is often a concern, the initial discovery call is completely free and carries no obligation, making it the easiest place to start.

Ultimately, this program is a targeted investment in your wellbeing. Rather than locking you into endless sessions, the structured 5-session program is specifically designed to deliver lasting results efficiently. When weighed against the true cost of leaving an issue unresolved, which often means months or years of acc accumulated stress, pain, or missed opportunities, the value of taking action becomes clear.

People Also Ask

What makes hypnotherapy at New Empowered You different from standard therapy?

My approach focuses on the subconscious roots of your challenges—emotions, beliefs, and patterns—rather than only managing symptoms. I combine hypnotherapy + coaching to create deep, lasting change for adults in The Hague or online.

Can hypnotherapy really help if traditional therapy didn’t work?

Yes. When therapy focuses only on talk and logic, many emotional patterns stay hidden in the subconscious. Hypnotherapy opens access to those deeper levels and empowers adults to resolve the root causes of anxiety, burnout, weight issues, and more.

What issues do you help with, and who is it for?

I work primarily with adults struggling with anxiety & panic attacks, burnout, emotional eating & weight management, and low self-esteem or unresolved emotional trauma. I do not specialise in addictions, but in helping clients transform underlying emotional patterns.

Do I need to live in The Hague to work with you?

No. You can work with me in person in The Hague or Wassenaar or online in English, Dutch, German, or Russian. The effectiveness of the sessions is the same whether in-person or online.

How many hypnotherapy sessions will I need to see results?

Most adults participating in my structured 5-session program experience meaningful shifts because we focus on root-cause work, not just symptom relief. Some see changes immediately; others gradually, but all are rooted in profound transformation.

What should I expect in my first discovery call?

In the free discovery call, we clarify your goals, explore what’s really behind your presenting problem, and determine together whether the 5-session program is a good fit for you. It’s your chance to decide if you’re ready for real, lasting change.

How quickly will I feel different?

Every client’s timeline is unique. Some notice a profound change right after the first session, while others see gradual improvement over weeks. The key is that the change is lasting, because we work at the foundational level of your mind.
