Steve Brookes

Licensed Master Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP)

​Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist

I'm qualified as a Master Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (known as NLP) ​who helps others to reclaim their mind in the workplace and overall life, show their best self and dominate their path.

I'm also a qualified Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapist and specialise in helping others break free from mental blocks, own their voice, and speak up with impact and authority — without forcing yourself to be someone you're not. 

My Struggles
Throughout my own career and personal journey, I regularly felt frustrated, unfulfilled, and isolated. I often froze in situations, feeling like I couldn’t speak up or be heard, struggling with anxiety and doubting my value. I couldn’t express my ideas confidently, and I believed that success and opportunities were for others, not for me. I felt overwhelmed by my emotions and often guilty when expressing my opinions. I lacked the authority and confidence to show up as my best self.

Taking Back Control
It was only when I decided to take control of my life that everything began to change. I spent years studying personal development, attending courses, and learning the emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects of self-healing. I started to look inwards in in order to reconnect to who I'm meant to be while having an increasing determination to get out of a place where I didn’t want to be. I reconnected with my authentic self and developed the courage to break free from the limiting beliefs and emotional triggers that had held me back for so long. With determination, I transformed my thinking, embraced a purposeful mindset, and began leading with authority, confidence and trust in my abilities.

I know what it feels like to stay small, miss out on opportunities, and question your worth. But through years of learning and growth, I reconnected to what brings me joy and began to step into my power. This journey led me to qualify with the Society of NLP as a Master Practitioner of NLP & GHSC Validated Training in Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapy (between 2016-2019). My mission is to help others move past what is holding them back to speak up, unlock their potential and live the life they truly deserve.

My Vision
Now I have come to the other side, I’m passionate about helping others do the same. My vision is a world where every individual, no matter their background, can express their authentic self and contribute fully to their career and life. 
​
I'm truly passionate about how the strategies of NLP can change your life and tailor the use of powerful NLP tools to meet the specific needs of my clients, brining a compassionate yet results-focused approach to every NLP coaching session and event.

A Path Forward
When I look back at my journey, I’m still amazed at how far I’ve come from those days of low confidence and self-doubt. This transformation inspires me every day to help more professionals break free from the anxiety and self-doubt holding them back from back from speaking up and being taken seriously. By using the tools I’ve mastered over the years, I help clients step into their authority, finally be heard, and confidently navigate the professional world without fear of judgment. It’s my mission to help you reclaim your confidence, speak up with authority and design a career and life you love.
