Goals of Neuro-linguistic Programming
The gist of NLP is to change negative patterns found in thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and communication skills. Changing these neurological patterns can improve the quality of life. For example, role models are studied to come up with new ways of behaving.
Therapeutic Techniques Used in Neuro-linguistic Programming
NLP theorizes that people have their preferred representational system (PRS). The PRS is basically a person’s view of the world. The PRS is the basis therapists use to determine the techniques used during NLP sessions.
One of the more common techniques is anchoring or associating a trigger with a better response until it becomes automatic. Next is belief-changing. In this method, negative thoughts are replaced with more positive ones. Similar to this is reframing. In this method, situations are contextualized to have a more appropriate response.
Visualization also forms a big part of NLP practice. The client is taught to imagine a mental picture of the goal they want to achieve.
Therapist's Role in Neuro-linguistic Programming
NLP therapists guide clients in examining their patterns of behavior, thoughts, and feelings. NLP is an empowering method of treatment. A therapist teaches clients ways they can understand and address their issues.
Client's Role in Neuro-linguistic Programming
The client takes on an active role in NLP sessions. They are in charge of challenging their current practices and beliefs. NLP’s effectiveness is based on how much the client is willing to participate.
Benefits and Challenges of Neuro-linguistic Programming
Clients set the specific goals they want to achieve during sessions. However, the core of NLP is to influence the way people think, feel, and behave and these changes should lead to positive outcomes.
Supporters of NLP say it leads to quick, lasting results and helps people understand their thoughts and behaviors better. Some compare NLP to cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), but believe it brings positive changes in less time.
The issue with NLP is that it is still an emerging treatment modality. It also has a lot of variations. Its potential is not yet fully known because it is relatively less studied compared to other treatment methods.
Effectiveness and Research on Neuro-linguistic Programming
While research on NLP is not as extensive as other more popular forms of treatment, they do exist. One of these is a 2009 paper published in Counseling and Psychotherapy Research. According to Melita Stipancic et al., people improved their psychological symptoms when they received NLP treatment. In addition, The 2015 research review published in Psychiatria Danubia found that NLP therapy positively impacted individuals with social or psychological problems, although the authors stated that more investigation was needed.

Conclusion
NLP zeroes in on the way thoughts affect behavior. It recognizes that the brain interprets signals from everything that stimulates it. These interpretations affect the person. With NLP, the role of language in these interpretations is given importance. Someone who goes through NLP learns to become an active participant in this process to achieve the desired goals.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About NLP
Is NLP the same as life coaching?
NLP is similar to coaching in that it helps people achieve goals. However, NLP is concerned with changing neurological processes that people learn from their experiences, and not just in goal-setting.
What is the preferred representational system?
The preferred representational system is a concept in NLP that is basically a person’s view of the world. This view is influenced by sensory inputs. For example, the things a person sees, hears, or feels. The PRS can also be determined by eye movements. An NLP therapist determines the client’s PRS and uses it to map out the most effective techniques used in the sessions.
How did NLP start?
NLP is based on the model developed by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in the 1970s. They published their findings in the book, “The Structure of Magic: A Book about Language of Therapy”. The book laid out the foundation of the authors’ theory that language patterns are indicative of cognitive processes.
Are there criticisms surrounding NLP?
Some experts believe that NLP can benefit from more rigorous scientific study because it is not as extensively studied as other types of therapy. However, there are already studies that indicate it is effective against some mental health conditions.
What should I look for in an NLP practitioner?
Like other types of treatment, it is best to go to a therapist who is a licensed mental health professional. It is also important that the practitioner is certified to conduct NLP sessions specifically.
