Hi, I'm Rui Yu
Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’ve already tried to understand yourself, made progress, yet still feel that something deeper hasn’t fully shifted, you’re not alone.
I work with people from different backgrounds who are not looking for more coping strategies, but real changes that lasts.
Many of them have been strong for a long time, and used to figuring things out on their own. But they begin to sense that the way they have been operating may no longer fully work.
More About Rui
Background
I grew up in China, studied in the United States, and later moved to Antwerp in Belgium, which I now call home. Living across different cultures shaped the way I see people and the world.
Before becoming a hypnotherapist, I worked for years in international companies, including leadership roles for marketing function.
The corporate professional experience gave me a clear understanding of high performance. Not just the external demands, but the internal standards and expectations people place on themselves.

How I came to this work
I became fascinated by why understanding something doesn’t always change how we actually feel or react. That curiosity led me to explore different practices, including several approaches to hypnosis. Through experiencing hypnosis myself, I saw the power it had to create meaningful transformation. That eventually led me to train in the specific modern, holistic approach I offer today.
What I offer here isn't about someone else taking control of you. It's almost the opposite. It's a way of creating space to listen to yourself differently, work with what is happening beneath the surface, and reconnect with your own ability to change.
And often, that change doesn't come from pushing harder, analysing more, or trying to control yourself better. It comes from allowing: Allowing yourself to feel what you actually feel. Allowing emotions to move instead of rejecting it. Allowing yourself to be vulnerable, curious, and honest with yourself without judgement.
I've found that when we stop fighting ourselves quite so much, things can begin to shift in a surprisingly natural way.
That's what I hope to offer through this work: a safe space where you don't have to perform or force anything to happen. You can simply come as you are, and we work from there.
