NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is a therapeutic approach that helps you change the emotional responses that attach themselves to specific situations, memories or triggers. When fear becomes linked to something very particular e.g; flying, public speaking, enclosed spaces, certain environments, or specific relationship dynamics — the body can respond as if the threat is still happening. NLP helps the mind safely separate the old pattern of fear from the present moment, so you can respond with more ease, clarity and confidence.
I work with clients who are dealing with phobias, intense or irrational fears, OCD- related thought loops, fear-based relational patterns, and situations where a specific trigger immediately creates panic, shutdown or avoidance. This work is supportive for people who feel held back by something they know is disproportionate, but still feels overwhelming in their body.
In our sessions, we explore the experience you want to change and the emotional response that comes with it. From there, I guide you through a combination of conversational techniques, guided awareness and focused state-shifting methods to help you understand where the fear formed, how your mind has been trying to protect you, and how to release the emotional charge safely. The aim is to replace the old response with something more grounded and manageable so you can move through the situation with greater ease.
NLP sessions with me are clear, direct and supportive. They’re designed for people who want to work on one specific issue, make practical progress, and feel more in control of their internal responses without needing to revisit the same story repeatedly.
NLP can help with:
• Fear of public speaking
• Fear of flying
• Claustrophobia
• Other phobias
• OCD-style looping thoughts and compulsive responses • Relational fear and lack of trust
• Irrational, overwhelming or trigger-specific fears
Femi’s abilities in holistic healing are innate - her presence fills rooms, and the people in them, with a deep sense of safety, love and calm. She holds space for others with a pure heart and grounded compassion. Having experienced all of Femi’s services, I would highly recommend every single one of them. I genuinely wouldn’t be where I am today without her guidance and support.
I was so blown away by how easy it was to switch off and experience peace during the (NLP) session [with Femi], I have such a busy mind and was worried I’d spend the whole time thinking! It’s completely changed my ability to relax my mind and accesses clarity with way more ease, I feel generally much more connected to the part of me that knows peace and excited to see in what other parts of my life I can notice a positive change.
