What is NLP?

NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. It was developed in the 1970s by Richard Bandler and John Grinder, who studied how highly effective people think, communicate and change. Neuro is about how our mind and nervous system work, linguistic is about the language we use with ourselves and others, and programming is about the habits and patterns we run, often without realising.

NLP opened up my own mind to a simple but powerful truth: we can change our state at any time. It also showed me how much of what we think, believe and do is driven by the unconscious mind, which means that when we change what’s happening underneath, real change becomes possible.

How it works

The unconscious mind holds far more information than our relatively small conscious mind ever could. NLP gives us ways to access it, so we can find the root cause behind unwanted thoughts, emotions, beliefs and behaviours, and open up new, more helpful ways to live and act.

As a holistic coach, I see you as a whole, interconnected being, where your thoughts, emotions, body and spirit constantly influence each other. NLP is one of my main tools for working with that whole picture, and I weave in other approaches I’ve trained in where they serve you.

NLP coaching can help with

• Overcoming limiting beliefs

• Managing emotions

• Improving communication and relationships

• Building confidence

• Resolving inner conflict

• Changing unhelpful habits

• Decision making

• Professional growth

• Reaching goals

What to expect from a session

We’ll start with a relaxed chat about what’s going on for you and what you’d love to feel instead. From there, we’ll explore what’s been holding you back and take the first steps towards something that feels lighter and more like you. You don’t need to have it all figured out. Just come as you are.

I provide a safe, non-judgemental and supportive space where every part of you is welcome. I invite you to come and explore NLP with me, because that “aha moment” can change everything.
