NLP Lifepath Counseling - a philosophy, context and opportunity for meaningful personal change

Humanistic psychologist Carl Rogers believed that people have an inherent tendency toward growth and maturation, but that each person was responsible for his/her own life and maturity. He believed that personal fulfillment of this tendency was not inevitable, but the self-understanding necessary to achieve it could be gained in a supportive psychological environment. John-Erik Omland offers this environment with a calm, caring, empathetic and perceptive presence and through insightful and effective use of powerful NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) communication and personal change tools.

NLP offers an elegant set of principles, physiology calibration and other tools with which to reach into and appreciate a person's "map of reality", and then fine-tune the visual, auditory and kinesthetic (and olfactory, gustatory) representations that make up a person's map (the beliefs and expectations about life, and the meaning one makes about one's memories).

The goal of a quality NLP session is to help a person construct a compelling vision of what they want in life, appreciate the gifts and resources available in the present situation and environment and to recruit and heal the "inner child". Along the journey, extreme attention is given to any objections a person's system might have become stumbling blocks thwarting change, had they not been given attention and expression.

This form of counseling favors individual initiative, creativity and self-fulfillment. We will discover the Noble human capacity to overcome hardship and despair - futility of one's personal actions - spiritual and philosophical aspects of human nature. Together we unravel and examine the structure of your unique "maps of reality" that define your humanness, by examining your relations with yourself, other people and your environment.

The change produced with NLP interventions is like a "software update" to the whole system. Parts of the psyche and personality that were previously occupied in an unworkable struggle to preserve some primitive, fundamental world view (often generated during the "magical thinking" years of 3-5) are now available for higher levels of creative functioning. You can literally change your life.
