Updated 17 November 2008 | NLP and the health care professionsNLP grew out of the search for more effective personal development and health care approaches. Twenty five years ago John Grinder and Richard Bandler began studying, or modelling, the attitudes, communication style, and interventions of three highly successful therapists Milton Erickson, Virginia Satir and Fritz Perls because they had observed that, despite their different specialities and approaches, these three were consistently successful in want they did. NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) grew out of this modelling project. You will find that NLP provides the ideal compliment to your experience and expertise, enabling you to use your professional skills in a more focussed and systematic manner, to create the kind of rapport that enables others to quickly move to deeper core issues, and to enhance your insight and empathy so that you can relate more effectively with patients, clients, or students. I began integrating NLP into my own work in counselling, psychotherapy, body work and stress management in the early 80s. It enabled me to reduce the time taken in establishing a case history while increasing the quality of the information obtained, to better understand the thinking structure and the patterns that were resulting in symptoms, and to fine tune my interventions. As a result my clients made greater improvements, quicker, while I enjoyed my work more, experienced less strain and had a healthier referral rate.
