Coaching with NLP
Separate from brand & marketing strategy, I am also passionate about coaching and developing people, so I pursued a certification in coaching with NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) techniques. I received my certification from The NLP School with Master Trainer Robbie Steinhouse. I am also a Professional Member of the Association of NLP.
What is NLP?
A literal translation of the phrase 'Neuro Linguistic Programming' is that NLP empowers, enables and teaches us to better understand the way our brain (neuro) processes the words we use (linguistic) and how that can impact on our past, present and future (programming). It gives us strategies for observing human behaviour and learning from the best (and worst) of that!
Simply put, change is possible - all you need is a desire to change and a willingness to learn new ways of being…with yourself, your thoughts and with others.
NLP has been defined as the “users manual for your mind” because studying NLP gives us insights into how our thinking patterns can affect every aspect of our lives.
Why coaching?
Sometimes we feel stuck in life, in school, in jobs, in relationships… and we don’t know how to move forward. I can help you get unstuck and reconnected to yourself with a greater sense of calm, control and happiness.
I can support you with various challenges, including:
Business or Personal
Clarifying or achieving a goal
Assessing leadership gaps
Resolving an issue you feel pulled in two directions about
Time management: focusing from dreams > projects > tasks
Preparing for a challenging event (e.g. big presentation) or situation (tough conversation)
More Personal
Finding new ways to go forward in a difficult relationship
Gaining respect for parts of self that you have little love or sympathy for, or find difficult to control
Identifying and overcoming an unhelpful core life script
Adding resources to a current troubling situation
Curing a phobia
Releasing enmeshment (e.g. codependency)
