NLP which stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming is a psychological and personal development approach to more effective communication and mind training using what is called “Modelling”.

NLP is based on the theory that we all process and communicate our thoughts, feelings and emotions in different ways.

The Use Of NLP In Hypnotherapy

Neuro-Linguistic Programming is widely used in hypnotherapy to help change very distorted unhealthy thinking patterns. The NLP therapist carefully uses assessment and the application of certain language to help make positive mind shifts in the client’s unconscious mind.

Hypnotherapy and NLP can be a powerful way to reach one’s unconscious with that power comes a certain level of ability to harm and heal.

That is why when looking for a Hypnotherapist or an actual NLP practitioner to help you with certain challenges you want to ensure your practitioner is highly qualified and skilled.

I have lost count of the number of clients and people I have met who felt more harmed by fast-track trained hypnotherapists’ misuse of language, lack of skills or awareness.

I personally have had 2 very alarming experiences with hypnotherapists one actually used the words let’s heal your broken brain during a hypnotherapy session. Another took me back to a traumatic memory of when I nearly drowned as a child and abandoned me in the traumatic experience.

An example of how the ineffective use of language in hypnotherapy or NLP can actually have a detrimental effect on someone’s unconscious.

The key when using NLP in hypnotherapy is ensuring the therapist always uses a highly safe and effective NLP script suitable for that client or that the therapist is extremely highly qualified and skilled in Hypnotherapy and NLP.

In my Relaxation Therapy Training, I teach our students some very extremely safe and effective NLP skills that help relax and empower their clients in a way that helps the client feel more in control.
