Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)

NLP is one of the tools I draw on within my work, rather than a standalone programme or outcome-driven intervention.

I use NLP where it helps bring awareness to patterns in thinking, language and behaviour - particularly when those patterns sit just below conscious awareness and shape how someone responds, decides or relates to themselves.

Often, this work happens quietly.
Sometimes within conversation.
Sometimes alongside hypnotherapy.
Always in service of understanding, rather than forcing change.

NLP can be useful when someone notices they are repeating familiar responses, getting stuck in certain internal narratives or reacting in ways that no longer feel proportionate or helpful, even when they ‘know better’.

Rather than trying to replace thoughts or behaviours, NLP allows us to notice how meaning is being constructed, how habits of response have formed and where there is room for a different experience to emerge naturally.

I don’t use NLP as a formula, a script or a set of techniques applied indiscriminately. It’s integrated thoughtfully, guided by context and by what will genuinely support clarity at that point in the work.

As with everything I do, the emphasis is not on optimisation or performance, but on understanding, so responses feel more considered, choices more aligned and life easier to move through.

NLP is used as part of my wider integrative work and may be drawn on alongside nutrition, coaching or hypnotherapy where it’s appropriate. It’s never something you need to ask for or decide on in advance.
