About Me

Hi, my name is Melinda King, and my personal healing journey which lead towards becoming an RTT and clinical hypnotherapist started about 10 years ago, after being involved in a series of abusive relationships which left me with PTSD, anxiety and depression. I was in denial about my situation, and was struggling to cope with being a single parent, and running my own business. I was also drowning in debt, and paralysed by fear and overwhelm. I tried traditional talking therapy, counselling and although we got to the surface cause of my issues, it just didn't help shift the underlying beliefs, it felt like a bandaid on a gaping wound. I finally broke down after yet another (good this time) relationship ended, and I realised that I had to change how I was showing up in the world otherwise I felt doomed to repeat the same patterns of lack and victimhood again and again.
This breakdown led to me exploring some deep feminine/masculine embodiment practises, shadow integration and inner - child work. I also become a Reiki master, and Ashati energy healer and learning to manage my own energy better so I could heal at an energetic level. I also explored somatic healing, and kinesiology, Alchemy and Hermetic wisdom, Internal Family Systems, some amazing plant medicines, breathwork, and learnt meditation, yoga and mindfulness practises to help bring my nervous system back into regulation, and get my mind/body/soul connection back into balance.
But the real game changer was RTT and Hypnotherapy.
I first took a session for memory and concentration as this was a massive issue with the PTSD, and was holding me back in business as my anxiety levels were still through the roof.. It was amazing, I saw results within a week, and everyone started commenting on how much calmer I was, and on my newfound ability to recall even minute details.
I then took another session for my poor self esteem, and again came out of the session feeling like I had finally gotten to the root of my pain and suffering. Working with my subconscious mind and using my imagination and creativity to create the change I knew I was worthy of gave me back the self agency that had been diminished with years of abuse.
I finally knew I was enough, that I always had been, and that I always would be.
The shift from VICTIM to VICTORY was incredible.
It also ignited my soul purpose to be of service to those struggling with the legacy of trauma. I have committed to being a life long learner, and am passionate about exploring the depths of the Psyche and our connection with each other and the Ecology around us.
And so I enrolled with Marisa Peer, became an RTT therapist, and now I am thrilled to guide others on their own healing journey.
I have since gone on to complete a Diploma of Clinical Hypnotherapy and Resource Therapy with Hypnotherapy Training Australia, Bad Trip Integration with Sean O'Çarroll of Wild Minds and am currently studying Trauma Informed Plant Medicine Facilitation with Atira Tan.

FAQs

What is Inner Alchemy?

Inner alchemy is a concept that encompasses various spiritual and psychological practices aimed at transforming and refining the inner self.

Like the historical practice of alchemy that sought to transmute base metals into gold, inner alchemy focuses on the transformation of the individual’s consciousness, emotions, and spiritual essence into their most pure and authentic expression.

This concept is found in different cultural and spiritual traditions, such as the Taoist Neidan, Western Hermeticism, Jungian Psychology, and Kabbalistic Alchemy, each having their own unique practices and symbolism.

Inner Alchemy Therapy provides a framework for understanding the journey of self-discovery and personal development. It recognizes the importance of inner transformation and the integration of various aspects of the self to achieve a more profound and authentic sense of identity and personal empowerment.

It often involves self-reflection, guided meditation/hypnosis, somatic release and symbolic or dream work, and practices that aim to resolve the impact of trauma, create new empowering self beliefs, that purify and elevate the individual’s consciousness and spiritual awareness.

 

What is Trauma?

“Trauma is the invisible force that shapes our lives. It shapes the way we live, the way we love and the way we make sense of the world. It is the root of our deepest wounds.” – Gabor Mate – The Wisdom of Trauma.

Our early experiences shape our beliefs, and our beliefs shape our actions, and our actions shape our reality. ⁠ Everyone experiences trauma, it is a part of our human experience, and all our experiences, good and not so good, form our beliefs about who we are, and our self worth from a very early age. It stands to reason that if you have traumatic experiences then perhaps you have formed some maladaptive beliefs that are unconsciously directing your actions/reactions, and making you feel like you are stuck reliving the same patterns again and again, whether you want to or not. It’s frustrating, especially if you can see the pattern, but can’t get to the bottom of it. You may have tried all sorts of therapies, and yet, it continues…it sucks…it feels hopeless, and exhausting..⁠ ⁠

Firstly, this is not your fault. It is perfectly normal, and there is nothing wrong with you. It is normal human development, and those maladaptive behaviors as painful and useless as they are now, probably once kept you safe. ⁠ Secondly, they are not the enemy, neither are you, they are just parts of you that you once needed, but that you have now outgrown, and once you see them for what they really are, you can release them. They hold the keys to your personal freedom.⁠ Thirdly, you can heal them, and it doesn’t have to be painful.

If you feel called to heal, and desire to be your most authentic self, within the container of Inner Alchemy I will compassionately guide you to uncover these beliefs, and transmute them, turning those painful experiences into new powerful beliefs, the inner gold of your personal transformation, setting you free to live the life you know you deserve.

What is Clinical Hypnotherapy?

Clinical hypnotherapy is a form of therapeutic intervention that uses hypnosis as a tool to help individuals with various issues, such as managing stress, overcoming fears, changing habits, and addressing certain psychological or behavioral challenges. 

Hypnosis is a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, often accompanied by deep relaxation.  It is very similar to a guided meditation where we speak to the subconscious in it’s own language using visualisation, imagination suggestion and sensation.

In a clinical hypnotherapy session, Mel guides the individual into a state of hypnosis and then uses visualisation and suggestive techniques to help bring about positive changes in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. This is all based on the client’s intentions, and it’s important to note that during hypnosis, individuals remain in control of their actions and cannot be forced to do anything against their will.  The therapist acts as a facilitator, helping the individual access their subconscious mind to promote healing and change.  Results vary depending on the individual’s willingness to change, and some issues may require several sessions to resolve any resistance to change.

Clinical hypnotherapy is often used as a complementary therapy in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches such as counselling, psychotherapy and somatic therapy. It is employed in various fields, including psychology, medicine, and dentistry, to address a wide range of issues such as anxiety, phobias, pain management, smoking cessation, weight loss, and more.

What is RTT?

RTT is a cutting – edge therapeutic approach that seamlessly blends the most effective principles from hypnotherapy, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), psychotherapy, parts work and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). 

Created by Marissa Peer based on her extensive clinical experience as one of the UK’s most sought after therapists, it is a powerful process that works directly with the subconscious via hypnosis.  Using regression techniques it gets to the root cause of the issue, unlocking deep-seated core beliefs, and then rewiring thought and behavioral patterns to facilitate lasting transformation within 1 to 3 sessions. 

Whether you are seeking relief from anxiety, overcoming past trauma, or striving for personal growth, RTT empowers you to break free from limiting beliefs and create the life you desire. 

RTT is a four step process over 4 – 6 weeks, which begins with a preparation session 1.5hrs where we discuss your issue in depth.  We also explore family and relationship history and any past traumas, and look at triggers, symptoms and patterns of behaviors associated with the issue.  

We then get really clear on the intention for the session and on how you want your life to be without the issue.

During the RTT session itself 2-2.5hrs you will be guided into a relaxing hypnosis and regressed back to the root cause of the issue.  We then look at core beliefs, impressions and imprints that were created at the time.  We then use CBT to assess whether these beliefs are still working for you and upgrade them and resolve any trauma that may be present.  This may include some parts work, inner child healing, memory reconsolidation and psycho dynamic role play, and somatic release.  We then install new beliefs that the client creates and release the past.

After the session we then re-program the subconscious mind for success with a personalised recording that is listened to for a minimum of 30 days.  

This creates new neural pathways using imagination and repetition, and allows new beliefs, behaviors and nervous system states to become embodied over time.

There are then two coaching sessions for integration and embodiment support in the month after the session.  During these we evaluate wins, assess shifts and track progress.  We also address any resistance or secondary issues that may arise, and practise strategies for integration and embodiment.

RTT is perfect for those who are ready to take a deep dive into their subconscious and release themselves from self-limiting beliefs and maladaptive patterns. 

I have had great success with clients suffering with addiction, anxiety, self sabotage and disordered eating.  It can also be very effective for CPTSD, and PTSD although these more complex issues may take a few sessions to resolve as the nervous system recovers.

Testimonials

Some kind words from my beautiful clients..

Following an incident at my workplace I developed PTSD. Despite a variety of treatments and therapies over many years, my life was still severely affected by these symptoms. We focused on developing self-compassion as a key to further healing. During the hypnosis I was compassionately guided to uncover key life experiences that may have embedded limiting beliefs in my subconscious. I was then able to gain recognition and understanding about why I created them. Melinda carefully helped me to unravel the thoughts that created these strong beliefs and look at them from a more healthy viewpoint. The RTT process assisted me to replace these old beliefs and patterns with powerful new ones. Melinda has given me new understanding and freedom to move forward in my healing, she believed in me, and helped me to believe in myself, and I am so grateful for this. I believe RTT is a powerful and effective therapy, and If you are feeling ready for change, then I highly recommend that you put your trust in Melinda King.
