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 to break free and dissolve the mental challenges holding them back and grow authority, confidence and trust in their abilities to get the profession and life they really want. 

My Struggles
Throughout my life and career, I regularly felt frustrated, unfulfilled and out of place, regularly froze out of anxiety and did not know how to be heard or stand up for what I believe. I was not enjoying life and often felt overwhelmed by my emotions and even guilty when expressing my opinion, doubting what I said and feeling I had nothing of value to offer and no path or opportunities existed for me, that was for other people.

Taking Back Control
Then I decided to take control and started to reflect on the reasons that led me to that point in my life and what was really holding me back. I spent years reading, attending courses and exhibitions on personal development and learning the mental, emotional, physical and spiritual aspects of self-healing. I started to look inwards in in order to reconnect to who I'm meant to be be while having an increasing determination to get out of a place where I didn’t want to be.

This allowed me get to a place within myself where I felt enabled to manage my emotions, break through unhelpful emotional triggers and patterns so I could start to change the way I think and feel. Instead of being held back, I locked into more purposeful thinking and learned from the past to build up my confidence, step into my authentic power and lead with authority.

I know how it feels to stay small and miss out on opportunities. Through years of learning and growth, I reconnected to what brings me joy and made the decision to continue my personal development by qualifying with the Society of NLP as a Master Practitioner of NLP & GHSC Validated Training in Advanced Clinical Hypnotherapy (between 2016-2019) for the sole purpose of helping me move along. Now I use my skills to help others move past what is holding them back to unlock their potential and live the life they truly deserve. 

Now I have come to the other side, this is my vision: A world where everyone regardless of background, expresses their authentic self and maximises their contribution to the world.

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.

When I look back I can see how far I’ve come from those days when I so needed to grow authority, confidence and trust in my abilities to get the profession and life I really want. This transformation inspired me to help more professionals break free from anxiety and self-doubt, to reclaim their confidence and design a life they love.

If you've reached a point where you’re so tired of doubting yourself, feeling anxious and not showing your best self at work, sacrificing your happiness, relationships or health and are truly ready to embrace new opportunities, I’d be delighted to work with you.
