IS THIS YOU?

Support is never one-size-fits-all. Many people come in feeling stressed, emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in patterns, disconnected from themselves, or navigating challenges like self-doubt, relationship dynamics, emotional eating patterns, burnout, or difficulty prioritizing their own needs. You don't have to work through it alone.

Stress & Overwhelm

If you feel weighed down by worry, racing thoughts, or a constant sense of unease — there is a path through it.

Past Trauma

If painful memories still hold you back from living fully — you deserve to feel free, safe, and whole again.

Feeling Stuck

If you know you're meant for more but can't seem to break through — together we can uncover what's holding you back.

Weight Issues

If your relationship with food, body image, or weight has felt like a lifelong struggle — there is a gentler, more lasting way forward.

Fears & Phobias

Whether it's a fear of flying, heights, social situations, or something else entirely — we can gently rewire the root of it.

Grief, Loss & Bereavement

Grief doesn't have a timeline. I offer a compassionate space to process loss and find your way back to yourself.

In our sessions, we use gentle hypnotherapy and guided relaxation techniques to support clarity, emotional ease, and a stronger sense of inner balance and self-connection—so you can move through life feeling more grounded, empowered, and aligned.

Sometimes what we're experiencing can show up as stress, overwhelm, feeling stuck, or emotions that feel difficult to put into words. Beneath that is often a desire for more ease, safety, clarity, and a stronger connection with yourself. Wherever you are in your journey, you deserve support, understanding, and space to be heard without judgment. Your experience is your own, and it matters. If something here resonates and you feel ready to make a shift, we can explore that together. This is a space for reflection, relaxation, and reconnecting with yourself in a grounded way.

I am here.

ABOUT LORI

I'm Lori Malek — daughter, mother, healer, and guide

Lori — RTT Therapist and Hypnotherapist

My Journey

I've been where you are. For much of my life, I became the strong one. The one who carried the weight, held space for others, pushed through pain, and kept moving even when my own heart needed tending. On the outside, I appeared capable and resilient. Inside, I understood what it felt like to carry grief, emotional exhaustion, relationship struggles, deep self-doubt, and the ache of not fully knowing my own worth.

There were seasons where I looked for love, validation, and belonging outside of myself. I struggled with patterns in relationships, overgiving, people-pleasing, and abandoning parts of myself just to feel accepted, chosen, or enough. Beneath so much of it was a quiet belief that I had to earn love, prove my value, or carry everything alone.

At some point, I realized my pain was not the end of my story — it was the invitation into it.

Instead of turning away from the hard parts of life, I chose to walk directly through them. I became deeply devoted to healing — not surface-level fixes, but true embodied transformation. I began exploring the connection between the mind, body, nervous system, subconscious patterns, emotional wounds, and the stories we carry beneath the surface.

That journey changed me completely.

Through my own healing, I discovered transformation happens when people finally feel safe enough to be seen, heard, supported, and guided back to themselves. I learned people do not need to be "fixed." They need compassionate support, nervous system safety, emotional release, subconscious rewiring, and permission to heal differently. This is when I discovered Marisa Peer and RTT. Finally I was able to get to the root of my pain.

I learned what it means to rebuild self-worth from the inside out. To stop abandoning myself. To create healthier relationships. To recognize that healing is not about becoming perfect — it is about becoming whole.

What once felt like my greatest struggles slowly became the foundation of my purpose.

Today, through my work in RTT, hypnotherapy, somatic healing, and fertility support, I guide people through some of the most vulnerable seasons of their lives. I help them untangle the emotional weight they have carried for years — self-doubt, fear, grief, shame, burnout, relationship wounds, identity struggles, emotional blocks, and the silent patterns keeping them stuck.

My work is not transactional. It is transformational.

I create spaces where people no longer have to carry everything alone. Spaces where healing feels safe, grounded, deeply personal, and profoundly life-changing. Whether someone is navigating fertility challenges, emotional overwhelm, self-worth struggles, relationship pain, or a desire to reconnect with themselves, I walk beside them with compassion, intuition, wisdom, and strength.

And perhaps the most meaningful part of my story is this:

I do not guide people from theory alone. I guide them from embodiment. From lived experience. From walking through the fire myself and learning how to turn pain into purpose.

Motherhood became one of the deepest parts of my transformation. Becoming a mother taught me about unconditional love, but it also revealed the parts of myself that still needed healing. Having my third child at 39 expanded me in ways I never expected. It deepened my understanding of surrender, resilience, trust, and the emotional journey so many women quietly carry through fertility, identity shifts, and motherhood itself.

My journey was never about becoming someone else.

It was about returning home to who I truly am — and helping others do the same.

Understanding RTT

What is Rapid Transformational Therapy? Created by Marisa Peer

RTT was created by world-renowned therapist Marisa Peer, and it's one of the most powerful approaches I've ever encountered — which is exactly why I chose to build my practice around it. It works by going beneath the surface, to the place where the stories we tell about ourselves were first written.

In a session, I guide you into a deeply relaxed, peaceful state — you are always aware, always in control. From that place of safety, we gently explore the root of what's been holding you back. Not to relive the pain, but to finally understand it. And when you understand where something came from, you can let it go.

That's when things shift. Not because I did something to you — but because you gave yourself permission to see yourself differently. That's where transformation lives.

TAKE THE QUIZ

Unmasking You: Discover a Potential Hidden Belief

Answer 5 gentle questions to explore whether a hidden belief might be quietly shaping your life.

Question 1 of 5

When you speak up in a group, how do you usually feel afterward?

Peer Fertility Coaching

She came to me the way most women do — quietly, carefully, like she wasn't sure she deserved to take up space with this particular kind of pain.

She had a full life. A good life, she kept reminding me. A loving partner. A career she was proud of. Friends who cared. And still — every month, another ending. Every announcement, another quiet devastation she tucked away before anyone could see it.

She told me she'd stopped letting herself want it. That wanting felt dangerous. That hope, for her, had become something to manage rather than something to feel.

She wasn't broken. She wasn't weak. She was a woman who had been surviving her own longing for so long, she had forgotten what it felt like to be held inside it — not fixed, not coached, not optimized. Just held.

That's where we began.


Not with a protocol. Not with a checklist. With her story — the one she'd never fully told, the one she'd been editing for years to make it easier for other people to hear.

Because here's what I know after walking alongside women in this space: the emotional experience of fertility is never just physical. The body often carries emotional stress and the nervous system holds grief the way the muscles hold tension. And somewhere, deep in the architecture of who we are, there are beliefs — quiet, inherited, often invisible — that shape how we relate to hope, longing, and ourselves during this process. These aren't just thoughts. They become internal narratives. And over time, those narratives can influence how we experience ourselves and our emotions.

My work is at that intersection — the place where science and story meet, where the clinical and the sacred coexist. I bring the tools of RTT hypnotherapy and peer fertility coaching together in a space that honors all of you: the woman who has done everything right and still feels lost, the woman who is just beginning and already scared, the woman who has been told there's nothing more to do and refuses to believe that's the whole truth.


What I offer isn't a guarantee. I would never insult your intelligence or your pain with a promise like that.

What I offer is a container — a safe, private, deeply intentional space where we work with what's happening beneath the surface. Where we release what's been stored. Where we rewrite the narrative your subconscious has been running on. Where we give your body, your mind, and your nervous system permission to open — to receive — to believe, maybe for the first time in a long time, that you are worthy of this.

You are not too late. You are not too much. You are not beyond help.

You are a woman with a dream that deserves to be witnessed with full reverence — not pity, not platitudes, not toxic positivity.

Just truth. And presence. And the kind of support that doesn't flinch.

You've been tracking. Timing. Hoping. Grieving quietly in the bathroom so no one sees.

You've smiled at baby showers. You've answered "not yet" so many times it feels like a lie.

You've Googled things at 2am that you'd never say out loud.

And somewhere underneath all of it — beneath the clinical language and the waiting and the trying — there is a version of you who just wants someone to sit with her and say:

I see you. This is real. And you don't have to carry it alone.
