Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) explores the relationship between how we think (neuro), how we communicate (linguistic) and our patterns of behaviour and emotion (programmes). By studying and learning from these relationships we can effectively transform the way we think and act, adopting new, far more successful models of human excellence.

NLP is therefore a powerful change management tool that transforms the way people think and act to have the greatest impact both professionally and personally.

NLP has been developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder at the University of Santa Cruz, who came together to share information and insights across disciplinary boundaries. It incorporates insights from behavioural and Gestalt psychology, family therapy, hypnotherapy, linguistics, information theory and anthropology among other disciplines.

A wide variety of issues can be resolved with NLP, examples of this are unwanted habits and behaviours, fears and phobias, panic attacks and anxiety, addictions and obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, limiting beliefs, stress and insomnia, health and weight issues, relationship issues, past trauma and painful memories.

I use simple visualisation techniques that are really easy to follow, to help reprogramme your mind so that you associations to thoughts and beliefs change. All that is involved is sitting down and talking through the exercises, for the most part you’ll feel like you just sitting with a friend having a chat.
