Time Line Therapy
Time Line Therapy has its roots in the work of Milton Erickson, a prominent psychiatrist who until his death in 1980, was the world's foremost Hypnotherapist. Erickson almost single-handedly brought hypnosis out of the closet, and made it possible for the American medical and psychiatric community to accept it as a "legitimate form of treatment." He created many innovations in the field and in the 1960's was using an hypnotic technique which was quite like Time Line Therapy.
In the 1980's, Tad James, also one of the developers of NLP, devised the system of Time Line Therapy. This is another revolutionary and rapid alternative to traditional and talk therapy. It is based on the theory that everyone has a "time line" that consists of all a person's recorded history - joys and fears, happiness and sorrow, loves and hates, limiting and empowering decisions - and it's a major part of the personality.
Intervening in a client's Time Line therapeutically, a therapist is able to assist the client to create seemingly miraculous changes- changes that extend even to the deepest level of personality, all without having to re-experience the unpleasant content of what's shifted. Your map of reality can get rearranged in such a way that you've convinced your subconscious mind that certain negative feelings or thoughts don't exist anymore. It's like rewriting your Life Story, and not having to remain stuck in the past. Finally, having resolved the issues and pain of the past, Time Line Therapy gives us a specific way of creating a new future time line, using our imagination and Time Line principles.
I was trained and certified by Tad James in Time Line and NLP, and received additional hypnosis training from him, as well.
