A fast solution to long term depression
A friend introduced me to Stephen 5 years ago. I haven't looked back.
I was diagnosed with clinical depression and had a nervous breakdown. I had been dealing with my problems since 1997 and was signed off from work for 5 years. Every day was a total struggle. The first and last thing I thought about on a daily basis was topping myself, despite being on a seriously heavy dosage of anti depressants.
I had had cognitive therapy which always seemed patronising, sitting in a circle re-iterating why I was feeling down. I had seen a few other therapists too and considered different types, including jungian therapy, but chose to see Stephen instead (one session sounded more appealing than once a week for 4 years analysing my dreams!).
When Stephen said I could be 'fixed' by next week if I wanted to and that we could start straight away, I realised this was going to be different to any of my previous therapy experiences.
The reason I liked the NLP approach was the constant positivity. 'Ok, you feel like this but what are you going to do about it?' It's about moving you away from your problem whilst other therapies seemed to keep me in there.
Since then I have been back to work, in a relationship, set up my own business and followed my dreams. In fact, I'm getting better and better every day.
I did one to one work with Stephen and decided to do the NLP Practitioner course to learn the tools for myself. Life still happens but I know I'm never going back to how I used to be. In a nutshell, I wouldn't be here if I hadn't discovered Stephen and NLP.
