Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a form of counselling and coaching that is very solution-focused.
It can provide stress relief and emotional release. NLP is also great for transforming life-long habits, thought-patterns and beliefs. This frees you to approach your life: your relationships, love, money, work and more – with greater peace, success and vitality.
NLP helps you:
- Release anxiety, worry, depression and more – to feel more relaxed and more connected
- Feel happiness and joy more often
- Connect to healthy self-esteem and confidence
- Create the loving relationships you want
- Be empowered with a healthy financial mindset
- Be more successful and happy at work
- Release old habits like smoking, insomnia, blushing, and more
- Undo self-sabotage
- Heal pain and other physical conditions, where they are psycho-somatic (mind-body)
- More benefits for you can be found here
With NLP, you can get deep and nourishing results – relatively quickly. Some of Michelle’s clients get fantastic results in just one session. Others may take a few. This is not the kind of therapy where you need to see someone for week after week, for months or years.
You can also experience what feels like a natural, and effortless, healing with Michelle’s use of Time Line Therapy.
How does NLP work?
NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) is about:
Neuro relates to your neurology: your brain and nervous system. It relates to how you give meaning to your experiences – in how you see, hear and feel.
Linguistic relates to language. The words you use give meaning to your experience. They can also shape your experience. Using the right words will light up your neurology in a positive way.
Programming refers to your strategies for dealing with life: your patterns, habitual emotions and belief systems. These determine your action, behaviour and also influence how you feel. They play a role in how you respond to events, and how you achieve your goals.
Drawing from these three elements, Michelle empowers you to find better ways. You connect to new strategies and resources within yourself.
This is a deeply respectful process. Michelle does not ‘program’ you. Rather, she respects the choices you made in the past, and simply helps you:
- uncover your existing ‘programming’
- develop your existing strengths
- discover new options and better ways
NLP is more than just words in conversation. Michelle holds a space for you, with gentle acceptance, so that your transformation is easier. She understands that the best results need to happen in your body, as well as your mind.
By combining NLP with kinesiology, Michelle is better able to understand what is happening in your body-mind-energy system, and facilitate your shift in a holistic way. She also factors in your lifestyle and environment in the process.
This gives you results that are much more than just a mental shift. What you get is an embodied, holistic result. In this way, Michelle is different to many NLP practitioners.
Another outstanding feature of Michelle’s holistic practice is her attention to the underlying cause. If you are experiencing stress or anxiety about something in your life (the symptom), there can be something deeper that is causing that stress or anxiety (the cause). If only the symptom is treated, the cause can manifest itself in different symptoms – causing further problems. To give you the best results, Michelle combines NLP and kinesiology to address and resolve the underlying cause.
How is NLP different to counselling and other talk therapy?
NLP is very solution-focused. This means that you don’t spend that much time talking about the past, or trying to work out the ‘why.’ By combining NLP with kinesiology, Michelle prepares you for working on the heart of the matter – without mentally grappling with it.
As mentioned above, NLP is much more than just an intellectual process. You get results that are experienced and embodied.
Better still, it becomes easy and natural for you to maintain the result you want over time. You do not have to keep reminding yourself about how you ought to be, or want to be. It becomes effortless, and the results stay with you.
The results are just so good that one of Michelle’s client said: ‘I kept looking for the anxiety but I just couldn’t find it!’
This is how NLP departs from certain conventional models of counseling and other psycho-therapies.
Sounds too good to be true? This is the stuff of real transformation. And it is entirely possible and within your grasp. All you have to do, right now, is choose an appointment with Michelle from her online booking system. This shows you all her available sessions in a click of a mouse.

Time Line Therapy
Time Line Therapy helps you release negative beliefs. It also helps you shed recurrent feelings like anger, sadness, fear, hurt or guilt.
The power of Time Line Therapy comes from this: you gain positive learnings from past events and integrate these into your present and the future. The process puts you back in control and allows you to re-write your experience of what happened – in a positive and empowering way.
It is particularly useful for resolving past trauma, and letting go of stressful experiences in the past. It helps you to (re)gain optimism and hope about your present, and the future.
What happens in Time Line Therapy? Michelle brings your awareness to an event in the past. This is the first event which gave rise to the negative belief, or feelings.
Then, as you are feeling safe and supported, Michelle helps you resolve the stress of that first event, and take the positive learnings from that event. This allows you to heal and move on with strength and grace.
These positive learnings are then applied to all the subsequent events, from the original event, all the way back to now. If you imagine the past as a chain of events (or a string of beads), the positive learnings are applied to each relevant event (or each relevant bead). You gain more positive learnings, release more negative feelings, and heal more thoroughly. The result? You move on as a stronger and wiser person.
This experience of Time Line Therapy can change your life. Usually, this process just takes one session. Many of Michelle’s clients say that they are amazed by the insights they gain, and the emotional freedom they experience. They are often also amazed by how quick, natural and effortless it felt for them to get there.
