Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is not only a collection of tools and techniques but a way of approaching human behavior and change. Developed in the 70’s in California, it is a methodology and guiding set of principles which draws from the genius of Virginia Satir, Dr. Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls, Gregory Bateson, and the field of General Semantics. NLP shows how the structure of subjective experience can be broken down into its smallest components (chunks), and changed, modified, improved upon, or removed. NLP has served as the bedrock for countless other therapeutic approaches from EFT, EMDR, Brief Solution-Oriented Therapy and beyond.

This workshop is for any healer who wants to learn how to help people make changes from the inside out. Learn how to change beliefs, get to the root of a challenge, transform emotions, and communicate with the unconscious mind. If you are a therapist, social worker, counselor, shamanic practitioner or healer of any kind, you will accquire actionable skills and tools to help your clients transform more deeply and more quickly.

After being trained in NLP by Richard A. Zarro (who had studied with John Grinder, one of NLP’s founders), Peter went on to get trained and certified by the NY Training Institute for Neuro-Linguistic Programming. He is the co-author of “The Phone Book - Breakthrough Neurolinguistic Phone Skills For Profit and Enlightenment” (Metamorphous Press, 1989)
