Neuro Linguistic Programming

Tamsin Barks

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), utilises hypnosis to embed new beliefs and habits. The change that clients desire range from stop smoking, weight-loss, fears, phobias, confidence to just getting out of the stuck-ness they find themselves in. The first session is usually 2 hours long and might be all that's required, depending on the change, while the weight-loss programme for example is one session a week for three weeks.



As change happens quickly, expect to pay more than you would than for therapy sessions for example, which tackle change over long periods of time. If you look at phobias; they're great examples of unconscious, one time learning that can last a lifetime! The reason that NLP is so effective is that it can undo this programming almost as quickly and unconsciously as it was created, yet it doesn't require you to re-live the specific moment that installed the reaction you get now. This can be very comforting for many clients; it's not about 'facing your fears!'
