Meet Ana Alves, founder of Libélula Therapy, a holistic therapist based in Dublin who helps people overcome limiting beliefs, emotional struggles, and even physical issues through Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) and other holistic practices. After facing her own health challenges and realizing that traditional medicine couldn’t provide all the answers, Ana began a journey of self-discovery, responsibility, and healing. That journey led her to RTT—a powerful therapy that combines hypnosis, NLP, CBT, psychology, and neuroscience to bring fast and lasting change.
At Humans of Fuzia, we are proud to feature Ana because her story reflects courage, resilience, and a commitment to empowering others. Her work reminds our 5M+ global community that with the right mindset, every person has the power to transform their life from within.
Q: Ana, could you tell us how your journey into therapy and coaching began?
My journey started with my own health issues. Doctors kept telling me that certain problems were “chronic” or had no solution. I refused to accept that. I decided to take responsibility for my health and began researching nutrition, exercise, and holistic approaches.
That’s when I discovered RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy), created by Marisa Peer. RTT is powerful because it combines the best tools from different methodologies—hypnosis, NLP, CBT, psychology, and neuroscience. In just one or two sessions, it can help people resolve issues at the root, not just the surface symptoms.
Q: What kind of challenges do you help people with?
I work with both emotional and physical issues—from anxiety, depression, stress, and low self-esteem to motivation, phobias, and even improving performance in sports or academics.
The key is that RTT focuses on the root cause. Many of our struggles come from limiting beliefs we picked up as children—from parents, teachers, or society. For example, being compared to others at school might leave you feeling “not good enough,” and that belief carries into adulthood. Through RTT, we revisit those moments and reframe them, freeing people from patterns that no longer serve them.
Q: That’s powerful. How would you describe your overall approach?
I see myself as a guide. I help people heal their past, regain confidence, and create fulfilling lives using the power of the mind. Our mind is the most powerful tool we have. Every thought creates emotions, which influence our actions and decisions. If we change the inner dialogue—from negative to positive—we unlock self-esteem, confidence, and security.
I often tell clients: It’s about going from “I can’t” to “I can,” from impossible to possible.
Q: How do you usually work with clients?
I start with a free 30-minute clarity call to understand the problem and see if I’m the right fit. If we proceed, the client fills out an intake form—and this already begins the therapy, because it asks them to imagine their life if the problem no longer existed.
Sessions can be one-to-one online, and I also run group sessions and masterclasses. For example, I recently led a workshop on “Changing Your Relationship with Food,” where we combined education with hypnosis and regression work.
Q: You mentioned building a digital presence. How do people usually find you?
I have my website, where people can book sessions directly, and I’m active on Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn. I send out a monthly newsletter and try to post three times a week. I also run a WhatsApp community with over 100 people, where I share resources and host free or low-cost sessions.
At the moment, I manage most of this myself, but it can be overwhelming. I’m planning to hire support soon for social media and content so I can focus more on helping clients.
Q: What message would you like to leave with our readers?
We all have the power to transform our lives. Your mind is your most powerful tool—it can either limit you or free you. By changing your inner dialogue, healing past beliefs, and taking responsibility, you can live with confidence, self-love, and purpose.
“It’s about changing from ‘I can’t’ to ‘I can,’ from impossible to possible. Everything starts in the mind.” – Ana Alves
