Today it is acknowledged that Clinical Hypnosis is one of the most powerful behavioural change strategies available today. It is commonly used within the therapuetic and coaching arena to achieve personal growth, business success, or promote positive change.

Our ethos and core beliefs are based upon the fact that every individual can achieve unlimited success in their life, unlocking their full potential and ultimately getting the life they want.

All our courses work on the principle that individual success comes down to the right balance of focus, control, confidence, competence and taking action.

We have ensured you will get the most from this online program by catering for all learning needs and styles. To ensure we get this right, we have included reading exercises, audio, short video clips, video technique demonstrations.

By following the teachings this course gives you, you will have the secrets and top tips I have used over the last 20 years as one of the UK's leading Clinical Hypnotherapists and NLP coaches.

I have worked with world-champion sportsmen, West End stars, government advisors, politicians, the CEOs of some of the world's largest companies and the one thing i have found to be true with all of them is that they all run the same programmes, face the same challenges and are coached successfully by the same techniques: the techniques I am sharing with you on this course.

For me, the most exciting part of my NLP, Hypnotherapy and Life Coaching journey was this bit now that you are entering. The beginning. I gave up a job as a director of a well known high street bank to become a life Coach, Clinical Hypnotherapist and NLP Practitioner and never looked back.

I hope you will love every minute of this wonderful journey and like me never look back.

Will Carling taught me many years ago, success is 90% confidence. I believe he was right. That was my first experience of how we can use the mind to achieve unprecedented and unlimited personal and professional success.

We have used the following symbols to guide you through the programme so that you know what to do and when to do it all in your own time.
