Conflict with your partner or spouse? Unproductive communication? Recurrent episodes of anxiety or depressed mood? Overconsumption of alcohol and/or substances in an attempt to self medicate against your out of control emotions? These and many other mental health challenges are both treatable and resolvable. In my 35+ years as a therapist to residents of the greater Fox Valley area I have observed that most of my clients choose therapy when they have utilized and exhausted all coping tools and problem solving strategies. As therapist it is my role to facilitate the increase of both coping tools and problem solving skills.

I work with anyone who has sleep issues, anxiety, trauma, rage, chronic pain, a phobia, grief...any emotional or mental issue, limiting belief, habit, or replaying memory would be great to bring to me. Those ready for this work want to dive deep into their unconscious patterns that have kept them stuck or sick. When one is aware of the power of your and your brain's potential but hasn't gotten the tools to flourish, NLP and parts work (I use Core Transformation) can fill that gap! Many of us do not know HOW to get to the results we know are possible, and a brain-based approach may be just what you need to solve your problem.

It’s the third time this week that you have gotten into a fight with your partner. You’re feeling upset and misunderstood. Is this even the person for you? What if you are with the wrong person?

Neuro-Linguistic (NLP) Therapists
How does neuro-linguistic programming work?
A therapist using Neuro-linguistic programming might start by building a strong rapport and gathering information about the client’s objectives and any problem areas. Then the NLP therapist will employ NLP techniques to guide their client toward healthier thoughts and behaviors. Clients will learn how to better manage their moods and hone their communication skills. NLP will conclude with the therapist and client making a plan for how to integrate the positive changes into their daily life in the future.
What are some techniques used in neuro-linguistic programming?
NLP therapists often employ anchoring, so the client begins to automatically associate their trigger with a healthier response. Clients also learn how to reframe a situation to change the way they react to it for the better, and how to replace the negative beliefs that are holding them back. Many NLP clients practice visualization or forming a mental image of themselves attaining their goals. Every NLP therapist will have their own preferred approach with specific techniques that they have found to be helpful for their clients.
How long does neuro-linguistic programming take?
Since neuro-linguistic programming is not regulated, the length of treatment can vary greatly. Some therapists may only use NLP in a single session, while others may employ it over the course of weeks, months, or even years. It depends greatly on the type and severity of the problem being treated, as well as the individual client’s response to NLP treatment.
Is neuro-linguistic programming evidence-based?
While some people may find neuro-linguistic programming helpful, either in therapy or in their career or personal development, the science behind this approach is inconclusive. Most of the available studies are small in scale and have produced mixed results, and the commercial nature of NLP lends itself to conflicts of interest. More research is needed. In the meantime, practitioners must use their best judgment of whether NLP techniques will be helpful in meeting their clients’ individual needs.
