I'm Ilze Zolte, a poker mindset coach and hypnotherapist who works specifically with poker players to help them improve emotional control, focus, confidence, and consistency under pressure.
Before working in mindset coaching and hypnotherapy, I spent years around the poker world myself, including working as a poker dealer and spending time in live poker environments where I saw first-hand how much the mental side of the game affects performance.
Many players study strategy endlessly, yet still struggle with:
• tilt
• fear
• self-doubt
• overthinking
• emotional reactions
• loss of confidence after setbacks
• pressure in important moments
Poker is not just a technical game. It is a game of emotional regulation, discipline, awareness, and decision-making under pressure.
Through private hypnotherapy sessions and mindset coaching, I help players become calmer, more focused, more present, and more emotionally stable at the table.
My work combines:
• hypnotherapy
• mindset coaching
• NLP-based techniques
• performance psychology
• practical tools designed specifically for poker players
Sessions are tailored individually depending on what each player is experiencing, whether that is:
• tilt after bad beats
• fear of busting
• confidence issues
• emotional carryover between hands
• difficulty focusing during long sessions
• pressure at final tables or major events
• self-sabotage
• inconsistency between A-game and C-game
Over the years, I've worked with players from recreational level through to high-stakes professionals preparing for major live and online series.
My goal is simple:
To help poker players build a stronger, calmer, more resilient mindset so they can perform closer to their true ability more consistently.
Stay calm. Stay present. Optimize your performance.
