Nick Kemp - Magic Wand Mindsets
Client
Expectations
When Paul McKenna ran NLP trainings regularly in London, I used to receive regular referrals from his office for my practice in Leeds. I had also trained with his company in the 1990s and assisted on numerous NLP and Hypnosis courses for a number of years up until 2003 before I set up my own training business. This was an invaluable apprenticeship in dealing with a huge range of individual expectational sets, especially as many clients (despite being repeatedly told) came to these NLP and Hypnosis courses for "therapy" Many such individuals expected what I term "the magic wand approach" where the practitioner would in a few moments magically remove all the clients problems without the client having to make any kind of change or do any kind of work whatsoever! I have trained with and spoken to many of the very best therapists on the planet, no therapist or practitioner can guarantee 100% success rate, and I would consider anyone claiming this as extremely suspect. When I see clients they receive my very best attention from years of experience working in this field. The questions asked and exercises practiced will be according to what I have found from years of experience works effectively. I reserve the right to end early any session where I feel a client is not demonstrating a willingness to follow my directions and in such a case, I will then charge for the time that has been given up until that point.
The "Magic Wand Mindset"
This "magic wand mind set" can also occur in private practice and can also result in some very strange requests for resolving problems. Most conditions will require two to three sessions for good results providing clients complete any exercises they have been given. Will power and willingness to practice the exercises are essential and I reserve the right to refuse to see clients if I consider they have unrealistic expectations.
Magical Change
There can be all manner of magical change through the use of Hypnotherapy and Provocative Change Works, change requires co-operation from both parties involved in the session work. As I say to clients "Keep doing the same thing you always did, keep getting the same thing you always got!"
