What
is Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP)?
Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), originally created in
1975 by Richard
Bandler and John Grinder, is the study of subjective experience. NLP is based
on modeling the successful work of Virginia Satir, Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls
and others. These clinicians were able to create change in their clients by
altering the way they processed information. NLP uncovers a person’s
motivational strategy as well as their unique way of processing information
and uses this to create fast, effective change.
Today, NLP is widely used in business to improve management,
sales and achievement/performance, interpersonal skills; in
the arena of personal development to create positive relationships,
increase energy, improve self esteem; in education to assist
with various learning styles, develop rapport, to aid in motivation;
and more.
Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) is a set of guiding principles,
attitudes, and techniques. It allows you to change, incorporate,
or eliminate behaviors and gives you the ability to choose
your mental, emotional, and physical states of well-being.
With NLP, you learn how to grow from every single life experience;
there is no such thing as "failure"- only feedback!
This is based on the belief that all experiences provide material
for positive change. NLP is a very practical approach to behavioral
change, giving you the tools to produce your desired results,
allowing you to create your own future.
What
makes NLP treatment so effective?
NLP is so effective because your subconscious mind, or emotional
center, stores all of your earliest emotional and experiential
imprints, both positive and negative. These imprints create
the beliefs that you have about yourself. These beliefs along
with your unique way of processing information create the patterns
at work in your life today.
We have all had the experience of seeing a "pattern" at
work in our lives that we feel unable to change. Perhaps you
have difficulty establishing healthy relationships, you have
repeated conflict in your work environment, or continued "bad
luck" with finances. Perhaps you struggle with addictive
behavior, low self worth or chronic health problems. The basis
of all your experiences originates in your subconscious mind
and the "programming" you have created based on this
subconscious information. Working with these subconscious beliefs
by modifying negative programming allows you to break these
old patterns and create positive, long-term change.
How
is NLP Different from Traditional Psychotherapy?
While Psychotherapy offers tools for understanding your limitations
and blocks, NLP offers the tools for change. Although Psychotherapy
can assist with insight and understanding, psychotherapy alone
is often unable to change the problem behavior, as many long-term
psychotherapy clients will attest. As a Psychotherapist I value
the process of understanding and insight. However, the outcome
of change is equally important. NLP creates change in behavior
and is designed as a short-term treatment, as compared with
the longer-term treatment seen with Psychotherapy. Most issues
are resolved in one to five treatment sessions.
