I have 30 years experience of NLP learning and application, achieving NLP Trainer certification in Santa Cruz in 1992. From 1999 with Derek Jackson, we founded and ran The Northern School of NLP for 12 years, delivering 35 Practitioner 15 Master Practitioner, 4 Trainer Training and 1 NLP Psychotherapy Diploma Certifications. Our website The NLP Kitchen, April 2012, is full of resources for the NLP Professional - including another 30+ brand new techniques and over 100 developed learning exercises, amongst all the goodies.My first book, The NLP Cookbook was published November 2011, and happily has been well received. It is a collection of 50 original unpublished NLP Techniques most of my own devising, with some fabulous endorsements.In 2007 I became a UKCP registered NLPt Psychotherapist. I have a successful psychotherapy practice which relies on a modelling approach. I have developed new models to address anxiety, self acceptance, wellbeing, resistance to move, sense of self, sense of purpose, happiness, power, resilience and many more, plus some pretty powerful techniques and approaches. I have pursued my interest in modelling, modelling the process of NLP Modelling. The Bumper Bundle Book of Modelling was published by Kilmonivaig Publishing April 2014, as well as The Bumper Bundle Companion Workbook. In November 2014, Sally Ashworth, ex Chair of NLPtCA, and I launched the provision of a newly constructed post graduate NLP Psychotherapy Diploma, starting in September 2015.I am now happily ensconced in East Lothian just south of Edinburgh, in our small cottage overlooking the sea, with new gardens to create and develop, paths to discover and delightful people to meet.Specialties: Therapy, Coaching, Training, Modelling, Model Construction, Pattern Detection, Intervention Design, Learning Materials development.
