NLP and Hypnotherapy

I am a therapist, trainer and author of the popular NLP book, “The Rainbow Machine – Tales from a Neurolinguist’s Journal” which has attracted comparisons to Robert Anton Wilson, Richard Bandler and Milton Erickson.

I am regularly consulted by television production and media companies regarding alternative psychology, hypnosis and neurological syndromes and have appeared on the BBC program, “Inside Out” (the episode where the cat is registered as a hypnotherapist) as well as on local radio and network television in India and I have written for The Fortean Times & Best magazine.

As a speaker I regularly present at conferences and practice groups, including the NLP Conference in London, The James Braid Society, The International Bariatric Surgery Conference in Turkey, Advanced Mastery Training (AMT) in the USA and university psychology departments and faculties.

In addition to, “The Rainbow Machine”, I also appear in several other books including, “Strange Fruit from a Bitter Tree” by Mark Andreas, “Help With Negative Self Talk” by Steve Andreas and “Restoring Hope: Appreciative Strategies to Resolve Grief and Resentment” by Rob Voyle.

“In the midst of a society tormented by war, racism, and social turmoil, therapy goes on with business as usual. In fact, therapists often look suspiciously at social change and label as ‘disturbed’ those who press towards it.

Therapy today has become a commodity, a means of social control. We reject such an approach to people`s distress. We reject the pleasant careers with which the system rewards its adherents. The social system must change, and we will be workers toward such change.”

Based in the seaside village of Rustington, West Sussex, England, I am a hypnotherapist with a background clinical experience in neurosurgery and neurology in my former profession as a registered nurse.

I have been teaching Hypnotherapy and Brief Therapy techniques since 1996 and more recently I have acquired a sizeable reputation with my developments of Integral
Eye Movement Therapy and Metaphors of Movement which are taught internationally and are attracting considerable attention.

“Therapy means social, political and personal change, not adjustment.”

The Radical Therapy Collective.

In 2015, both Metaphors of Movement and Integral Eye Movement Therapy were included in The SAGE Encyclopedia of Theory in Counseling and Psychotherapy.
