Neuro-Linguistic Programming
“You don’t have to suffer continual chaos in order to grow.”
~ John C. Lilly
This is a sophisticated cognitive therapy whose effectiveness comes from a means of tracking the more primitive survival responses of our brain’s -which in moments of emotional overwhelm/sympathetic response often hijacks our capacity to make more intelligent empowered choices. NLP helps one both see the survival response for what it is, while re-orienting the power of decision making to the present time neo-cortex center of the brain. NLP focuses from the perspective of what the client wants in order to make logical levels of change which can be sustained over time.
Often, we find that the patterns of thought, belief and identity, which drive survival are a product of the family system we come from. We will explore and reorient your experience of your own choices as well as your inherited ancestral patterns in order to bring you to a clearer sense of where your ‘yes’ lives- so that you can act from it in an unopposed manner.
“I cannot recommend Akasha Christy enough for the NLP and Family Constellation therapy. My appointments with Akasha were amazing healing opportunities where I was able to unearth and examine deeply seeded wounds, look at them with compassion and find my way to releasing them with love. I have used many forms of healing therapy to address my childhood wounding, but this work was the most effective in the shortest span of time. The process of role playing and engagement with different family of origin members was instrumental in helping me to look at these wounds with fresh eyes and realize deep forgiveness through new understanding within myself. I appreciated Akasha’s sensitive and patient demeanor and her plethora or healing tools and processes. Her kind energy and soft voice were engaging and put me instantly at ease.I am happy to share my positive experience and recommend her to my larger circle of friends and family.”

“As far as the NLP therapy sessions I’ve had with Akasha, I’m still amazed, months later, at how effective they were. She held a very present, caring, patient space as we discussed the issues, and took as much time as needed to thoroughly address and shift them. In fact, it was so effective that I can barely remember WHY those issues were bothering me! The charge around these things that were so painful that they caused me to seek out therapy is GONE. I’m still amazed. NLP is powerful stuff, and she clearly has a passion and gift for it. Really, if you need either NLP sessions or Massage, you’d do well to work with her. She’s a rare gem, and has helped my healing a lot. Intuitive, caring, strong, patient, skilled, deep, & charming. She’s been a lifesaver and a great ally to have when I need some healing work.”

“I came to Akasha for some NLP work. I had heard a little about NLP, but just generally & didn’t really have any knowledge of understanding of what would be involved. I have to say that in *one* session, I learned more about myself & my inner tickings that have been at work for basically my whole life. I was truly astounded. Cut to about 3 weeks later, a family member who Akasha & I had discussed in our session & with whom I had a very rocky relationship came to town to visit. It turned out to be the absolute best time I had spent with him in as long as I can remember. Something in our relationship had clicked, opened, changed. Like Akasha said, “When we shift, everything shifts.” And this tense cloud which I had been walking under for years magically lifted. My head felt clearer & my heart lighter – literally! A massive thank you to Akasha for bringing me to a new vista within my own self & relationship. She is present, caring & fierce when it is called for & completely committed to my transformation. It is such important work, & she’s amazing at it.”
