Neuro Linguistic Programming

[MiniN]

Couldnt decide which section this should go in but....do you think NLP is any good?

[Doc Spock]

Absolutely, I swear by it, use it all the time, wouldn't be without it.

Recommend it to all my friends.

Better than Firefox, IE7, Nero and all the rest put together.

[MiniN]

not computers, psychotherapy, Spock?

are you talking about the sam e thing as me?

[funnygirl]

What the hell is it???

[Doc Spock]

Sounds like a load of old bo11ocks in order to get meaningless degree.


Ooops, there I go again.

[MiniN]

I don't mean it as a degree, just in general. A friend is intereseted in Psychology and I was thinking about getting him a book on NLP because i was once told it is a good subject area.

what do you think?

[4GS]

I've got a DipHe in Psychotherapy, I would recommend NLP

[Doc Spock]

I have an "O" level in woodwork which is probably a bl00dy site more usefull.

[MiniN]

4GS, how long is a DipHE in Psycotherapy? and what are you then qualified to do?

the same friend of mine is thinking about studying.

[MiniN]

well done Doc!

[Doc Spock]

Cheers MiniN.

Qualified to do sod all I would have thought.


Sorry but these airy fairy subjects get on my t1ts.

Any parent over the age of 40 would make a better"psychoanalyst" than any snotty nosed student.

[4GS]

One year course, some distance learning, I did it here

I did the course because I was a Medic in the Army and wanted to know more about the mind and how it works. I'm a qualified Psychotherapist and Hypnotherapist but havn't used it since I left the Army in 2004 so my registration has lapsed,

[Richie1976]

I think some of it is good, but some take it a little too far. Tony Robbins is very good, I've read a few of his books.

[Doc Spock]

So then 4GS , I take it you never have to pay for drinks, meals out etc.

"look into my eyes"


Absolute twaddle.

[4GS]

Milton Erickson was the inspiration behind NLP:
