NLP in Mental Health

While mental health is a sliding scale from mentally fit to mentally ill, it is rare that a person moves from one end of the scale to the other quickly.

Often poor mental health is developed over time and NLP is fantastic at preventing, early intervention, as well as recovery of mental disorders because it is a future-focused modality.

NLP is a made up of 3 key areas:

• Neuro: Understanding how people think, why they do what they do and what you can do about it.
• Linguistic: Developing a deep psychological understanding of other people’s communication as well as the word that motivate, inspire and focus people on positive outcomes.
• Programming: How to empower people to remoe old programs of negativity and focusing on the past by installing programs of positivity, hope and focus.

Often a person experiencing long term stress is at risk of anxiety, depression, PTSD, anger issues and other psychological issues. NLP offers a solution-focused set of tools to help people manage stress, and their emotions, and take responsibility for their mental health.

NLP also offers a solution for practitioners who work in recovery coaching since it is developed with getting goals and objectives rather than focusing on the past.
