Portland, Oregon

The HNLP Coaching Intensive is for the busy professional who wants the newest streamlined coaching practitioner training developed and taught by a recognized leader in the NLP and Coaching fields.  If you are new to NLP or you are already an NLP Practitioner or Master Practitioner you’ll benefit from the strong emphasis on how to conversationally coach the unconscious mind.

 Neuro-science has long known that our unconscious functioning precedes conscious awareness by a 1/2 second.   This means that most if not all coaching issues like motivation and procrastination, indecision, conflicting priorities, burnout and overwhelm, and performance anxiety are a result of automatic (unconscious) reactions and patterns which occur before conscious awareness. Amazingly, though, most coaching programs available today rely heavily on conscious processing through questioning, analysis, and tasking. It’s like trying to steer a train by asking someone in the last car to change the direction of the entire train.  It simply won’t work.

This training will teach you how to work with unconscious processes that are at the root of most coaching issues, yet do it in a natural, conversational way that makes this approach adaptable to any context.

Through his 30 years of experience in the fields of therapy, training and coaching John is able to simplify complex concepts into practical step- by-step processes with tremendous scope in the “real world.” The result is a training where you’ll acquire cutting edge conversational skills effective for business, coaching and therapy while shifting your paradigm of change and what is possible in your life.  John’s teaching emphasizes the balance of skill development while also transforming from the inside out to create congruent competence.  Skills alone make a technician with no humanity or heart.  Transformation alone is inspirational, but sometimes lacks the “how to” details.  Because John teaches to both the conscious and unconscious mind you’ll have a direct experience of skill development and personal transformation - and to the extent you are open and ready for it- increase your congruence and belief in yourself to be a positive presence in life.

HNLP is the study of how Mind creates reality through language and behavior. No matter what you think you are, you are always more than that! John Overdurf and Julie Silverthorn coined the term Humanistic Neuro-Linguistic Psychologyª to describe their branch of NLP. Their extensive research in quantum physics, ancient spiritual systems, hypnosis, neuro-science and the experience of life led them to create this natural extension of traditional NLP. HNLP is included in the new training format.

How does the training work?

After you register for this training you will be able to download the Advanced Coaching Practitioner Experience which is an entire Practitioner Training.  Listening to the material in advance will assist you in developing a familiarity with the information and the skills to maximize your learning during the training.  By the time you take the class, this familiarity will enable to have more “hands on” and question and answer time during class.  Following the training you’ll have this material as your own follow-up program to further integrate your learnings.
