Hypnotherapist Vivienne Rawnsley answers your questions on Time Line Therapy™
What is Time Line Therapy™?
Based on the idea that our minds carry an internal ‘timeline’ connecting the present with events from the past and future, Time Line Therapy™ is a therapeutic approach that works with the subconscious mind. Along this timeline lie emotional imprints from significant experiences (both positive and negative) that influence how we think, feel, and behave today.
Many of these imprints, particularly those tied to fear, self-doubt, and frustration, are formed during times when we had little or no control, such as early childhood, time in the womb, or through generational patterns passed down within families. Over time, these deeply rooted emotions and beliefs can create unhelpful behavioural patterns that often leave us feeling stuck or unable to move forward.
What can Time Line Therapy™ help with?
Time Line Therapy™ is a powerful tool for releasing emotional baggage and limiting beliefs that keep us stuck in repetitive patterns, impacting our quality of life and self-worth. Working with your personal timeline allows the subconscious mind to reinterpret past experiences, release deeply held emotions, and create space for healing and transformation.
This process helps loosen the grip of trauma, repair relationships, and redefine beliefs about yourself and your place in the world. Many of us carry unresolved emotions from past events, which manifest as fear, anxiety, or a diminished ability to cope. Time Line Therapy™ acts as a ‘reset tool’, addressing subconscious glitches that hold us back.
By targeting the root causes of emotions like anger, sadness, and guilt, Time Line Therapy™ effectively addresses fears, phobias, anxiety, relationship challenges, imposter syndrome, PTSD, and C-PTSD, offering a compassionate pathway to personal growth and freedom.
How do I know if Time Line Therapy™ is right for me?
Whether you’re looking to address newly uncovered challenges, or deeply rooted emotional struggles, this approach offers a powerful way to create meaningful change. Time Line Therapy™ can be used as a one-time intervention, or revisited periodically to support a wide range of issues for individuals with diverse needs.
This method is flexible and adapts to your personal style. If you value structure and control, the process may begin with trust-building and practical techniques, before delving into deeper work. For those who are more intuitive or curious, it provides an exciting opportunity to explore the subconscious, and uncover the root causes of fears, behaviours, and emotional patterns. Time Line Therapy™ can stand alone as a focused intervention, or be part of a broader therapeutic programme, with therapists introducing it at the most appropriate time.
Vivienne’s top tips for preparing for a Time Line Therapy™ session
- Find an experienced and qualified therapist you trust, and can be at ease with.
- Ask the therapist questions you need answered to support this trust-building process.
- Allow your conscious problem-solving, rational-thinking mind to relax and take a step back, creating space for your subconscious to explore the hidden depths of your inner challenges and beliefs.
- Trust the process. Rather than needing to figure out the ins and outs of how it works, just go with it.
- Recognise its life-changing possibilities, the power of this work and the opportunity to transform the habits and beliefs that are getting in the way of you living the life you deserve, on your terms.
