What My Clients Say
“In just one hypnotherapy session Lisa helped me to feel more confident about speaking my truth and living in line with my values. Before working with Lisa, I would doubt myself and self-sabotage, I no longer do that. I am so grateful for Lisa’s warm and supportive approach and the way that she helped me reset these limiting behaviors. I would definitely recommend Lisa to help you make the changes in your life that have been holding you back."

"Dr. Lisa Zaretsky is passionate about helping people transform their lives and this comes through in every aspect of the experience of working with her. She uses intuition and compassion to help you get to the root cause of your problem and she is dedicated to ensuring the best possible outcome for you. I experienced this firsthand when in just one hypnotherapy session she helped me to overcome my money blocks and impostor syndrome which was holding me back from setting up my business. She created an inspiring transformational recording which I continue to listen to now. It has given me the confidence and self-belief to put myself out there to become a successful businesswoman in charge of my own destiny. It was so powerful and life-changing. I strongly recommend Lisa to help you with any issue you may be dealing with as she has such a broad range of experience which she is well-equipped to assist you with.

Mindy Ross-Knaster ~Special Education Advocate
"Hypnotherapy with Dr. Lisa has been wonderful. Within one session she was able to guide me to my subconscious mind to roots, causes, and feeling for the issues I came to her for that I didn't even know existed. She was so professional and empathic, and I felt confident in her ability to assist me. My life has transformed. I have a much better understanding of what the underlying reasons were and my old unhealthy beliefs and thinking patterns have changed. I approach life so much more positively now. I would definitely recommend Dr.Lisa to help anyone who needs the freedom to live their life happily. Thank you Dr. Lisa for everything! Bless your beautiful heart."

"Doing Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) with Lisa has been an incredible experience for me. She provided a safe and supportive environment where I experienced powerful remembering through hypnosis that, ultimately, were the root of underlying beliefs and patterns that were holding me back. I could delve into my subconscious and uncover past experiences that had shaped my current mindset. What was critical was that the memories that my subconscious offered were not what I expected them to be. Meaning, traditional therapy would have never been able to accomplish what RTT did, as I would have been focusing on other experiences that were more readily available. Throughout the session, Lisa spoke to my subconscious in a way that helped me reframe those experiences and replace negative beliefs with empowering ones. The results were truly astonishing. By continuing with the process through listening to the hypnosis recording every night I noticed a profound shift in how I viewed myself and the world around me, and I gained a newfound sense of confidence and clarity. An added bonus is that I get a deeper and more restorative night's sleep. What impressed me the most about RTT was its ability to deliver rapid results with minimal effort. After just a few weeks, I noticed significant changes in my thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Long-standing fears and insecurities began to dissipate, and I now feel more in control of my life. I have broken patterns that have held me back all my life. The ongoing support sessions with Lisa were wonderful as they allowed me to share my progress and get feedback on realizations. I wholeheartedly recommend RTT to anyone who is seeking a powerful and efficient method to address personal challenges, release emotional blockages, and create lasting change. It has been a life-changing therapy for me, and I am incredibly grateful for the positive impact it has had on my life."

"My RTT hypnotherapy treatment with Dr. Zaretsky was incredible! I went in with very high expectations, yet very skeptical of being able to be put under. I was indeed put under and she brought up some past memories that I thought were blips on the radar, but she uncovered a much deeper meaning and helped me to move past them! Dr. Zaretsky helped me to connect to my true inner self, which was one of my goals of this therapy session. Saying that I highly recommend going on this life changing journey would be an understatement! If any of this resonates with you and you want to connect with your true inner self and guide, get past your past, or are looking for any type of transformation; I think you’re reading this for a reason and should take this as a sign to take that leap to an extraordinary experience, I’m immensely grateful that I did!"

"Dr. Zaretsky's skills are tremendous. During a particularly hard period in my life where I was not ready to start another long therapeutic relationship, she offered me a wonderful alternative to traditional therapy that has been life changing, goal oriented and a huge relief to the suffering I had been experiencing. If you are willing to do the hard work, there is no better guide to get you where you want to be in all areas of your life."​

"Meeting with Lisa Zaretsky, and doing RTT with her, has changed my life infinitely for the better. I used to experience C-PTSD symptoms rampantly, truly, I couldn’t go even a couple of hours with symptoms (often flashbacks) popping up. I was miserable and felt hopeless. I spent 4+ years of my life trying every form of trauma-informed therapy out there (CBT, DBT, EMDR, IFT, neurofeedback, somatic therapy, etc). You name it, I did it. And none of them yielded lasting results. It was at that point that I began working with Lisa. Going in, I did not believe it would work. I did not believe my symptoms were treatable, after all, I had tried so hard for so long to make positive change, and it continuously felt as though it was getting worse. I remember throughout doing these different modalities of therapy, it was often told to me that my relationship with trauma/my C-PTSD diagnosis would be one that ebbs and flows, sometimes I would feel so good it would seem irrelevant, and others it would come back, and that it would always be this way throughout life. I had resigned myself to that. I thought it was fact. After just one RTT session, my life was never the same. It has been two years since I began with her, and I can confidently say the symptoms of PTSD I experienced- which I have learned to detach from (as they are not “mine” and PTSD is not “me”). I can confidently say things will never be as they were. I have experienced virtually no PTSD symptoms in the past two years, which is crazy to me, because they used to run my life rampant. I am also mind blown by the fact that I truly did not believe this modality of therapy could work for me, I actively believed against it, and IT STILL WORKED!!! That is insane to me. Miraculous, even. Lisa often likes to remind me of a key truth- I was in a place where I was ready and willing and open to healing. It’s just that I due to not having any success with other modalities, I didn’t believe I could with this one. My openness and willingness to do the work has been and continues to be integral in my healing journey. She also likes to remind me that I did the work, she was the guide. And I am SO glad it’s been Lisa who’s guided me. Lisa has walked me through this process and been there to support me throughout it in a way no one else could and in many ways no one else has. I have never felt more empowered by another human being, let alone a therapist. She has taught me that I am not resigned to a life of victimhood, a life of flashbacks, a life of any negative experience that I don’t want to define me but feel does. She has been exactly what I’ve needed in countless ways. In addition to completing RTT therapy, I also meet with her and utilize other modalities such as EFT, TAT, and talk-therapy. Meeting with Lisa has been different than any other therapeutic experience I have had for many integral reasons, a key one being- she doesn’t let me just sit there and complain. She doesn’t allow me to get sucked into the problem. We do broach the issues, just from a different angle- one of feeling, one of seeing, one of healing. NOT one of falling down the rabbit hole of getting worked up rehashing things, which, I might add, is a rabbit hole many a therapist has fallen down with me. I am so grateful she doesn’t. Her firm and gentle hand has been there to pull me out of it every time; or, to help me find a different path, before I even begin the fall. As you can probably see by this essay of a testimonial, working with Lisa Zaretsky has changed my life infinitely for the better. I truly, deeply, highly recommend you allow her to help you too."

My overall experience with Dr. Zaretsky and the program has been a positive one. As a result of my sessions, I feel a subtle shift in my reactive behavior and an improvement in my outlook on life in general. Under the guidance of Dr. Zaretsky I continue to commit to the program with an open mind which enables me to manifest the positive.
