Meet Chris Diava


Hi, I’m Chris Diava


Certified Hypnotherapist, RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy) Therapist & Founder of Sanctum of Self With over 20 years’ experience as an educator in Sydney and London, I’ve always been drawn to helping people grow.


But like many, I reached a point in life where I began to ask deeper questions:


Is this enough? What is my true purpose?


During the quiet and introspective time of COVID, I kept encountering posts by Marisa Peer world-renowned speaker, RTT trainer, and best-selling author.


It felt like the universe was tapping me on the shoulder. Her words resonated deeply, as if my phone had been listening to my thoughts.


I’ve always been on a healing journey, endlessly curious about how the mind works, eager to unpack my own patterns and triggers. And something about her message spoke straight to my soul. Becoming an RTT hypnotherapist has been one of the most rewarding decisions of my life.


I help people uncover the root causes of their traumas, addictions, and limiting beliefs, and guide them in reframing and transforming the negative into the empowering.


Through this work, I witness transformations that are nothing short of profound. And it all begins in the mind.


Sanctum of Self was born from this calling:

a sacred space to reconnect, release, and remember who you truly are.

Begin Your Healing — Choose the Support You Need

Unlock the Root, Reclaim Your Power with RTT From a young age, our minds are like sponges—absorbing words, experiences, and emotions without the ability to rationalise or filter them. In childhood, we form beliefs about ourselves and the world based on what we hear, see, and feel. A single comment, a moment of fear, or a repeated message can become a powerful blueprint for how we view our worth, our abilities, and our place in the world. These beliefs often live in the subconscious, quietly shaping our choices, emotions, and reactions well into adulthood. 


This is where Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) steps in. RTT is a powerful therapeutic approach that works with the subconscious mind to uncover the root cause of unwanted behaviours, self-doubt, fears, phobias, and negative patterns. 


Through guided hypnosis, clients are able to access the subconscious—bypassing the critical, analytical mind—and revisit the moments where limiting beliefs were first formed. In this relaxed, yet highly focused state, the mind becomes receptive to insight and transformation. 


We identify the meaning the mind attached to those early experiences and, most importantly, we reframe them. This reframing allows the mind to let go of outdated programming and replace it with empowering, supportive beliefs.


RTT isn’t about treating symptoms—it’s about permanently shifting the subconscious wiring that created them. By healing the root, people experience freedom from what once held them back, unlocking confidence, calm, self-worth, and clarity.


You don’t need years of talk therapy to feel real change. You just need to understand where the belief began—and choose something better.

Frequently Ask Question

1. What is hypnotherapy, and how does it work?


Hypnotherapy is a gentle process that uses deep relaxation and focused attention to help you access your subconscious mind. In this relaxed state, you can uncover patterns, shift habits, and create positive change more easily than with conscious effort alone.

2. Will I lose control during hypnosis?


No, absolutely not. You remain fully aware and in control at all times during hypnotherapy. You cannot be made to do anything against your will. Think of it as a deeply relaxed, daydream-like state where you are always safe and able to make your own choices.

3. What kinds of issues can hypnotherapy help with?


Hypnotherapy can support a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, stress, fears and phobias, building self-confidence, breaking unwanted habits (like smoking), improving sleep, and managing emotional eating, and more. Each session is personalized to your needs.

4. How many sessions will I need?


Everyone’s journey is unique. Some people experience significant change after just a few sessions, while others benefit from ongoing support. During your free consultation, we’ll discuss your goals and create a plan that feels right for you.

5. What can I expect during my first session?


Your first session is all about comfort and connection. We'll start by discussing your goals, answering any questions you have, and creating a safe, supportive environment. The hypnosis itself will be relaxing, and you’ll leave feeling calm, clear, and empowered.
