What We Do is Unique



We offer a unique and effective mix of advanced interventions you won’t find elsewhere in counseling and coaching.

Rapid-Change Therapy Techniques

Our approach is designed to facilitate significant, profound change, often in as few as one to four sessions. Our chief therapist, Larry Westenberg, has over 40 years of experience and has spent more than 30 years studying and utilizing Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) to maximize its effectiveness for individual clients.

 

Mr. Westenberg holds multiple certifications in NLP, including Master Practitioner and Certified Trainer. He has dedicated the necessary time and practice to truly master NLP’s complex skills—unlike many who learn only introductory techniques—and applies this powerful technology to achieve lasting personal change.

 

We treat every problem as a “programming error” in the brain. The focus is on:

  • Releasing the effects of past trauma and limiting behavior patterns.
  • Teaching new ways of thinking about your issues, enabling you to gain clarity, align your skills and beliefs, and achieve positive goals.
  • Supporting deep transformational change, which also includes the use of The Seventh Degree of The Radiance Technique® (TRT®).

The Way Beyond Difference: Beyond Conventional Approaches

Unlike traditional methods that may require endless sessions to uncover causes or simply rely on willpower for change, our process is systematic and focused on resolving internal barriers. We treat you as a partner and client, leading to rapid, lasting results.

 

Our unique process involves:

  • Conflict Resolution: We help you identify and clarify your genuine, core values—even conflicting ones—and use advanced NLP techniques to resolve internal conflicts. This negotiated synergy frees up an amazing amount of energy and motivation for growth.
  • Value Alignment: We strategically expand your awareness so you can experience how your work, family life, and goals are all rooted in your values and beliefs, providing clear direction for growth.
  • Customized Systems for Change: We develop a system tailored to your life that helps you enact changes while respecting other people and the demands of your larger life. This system includes a “warning system” to help you stay on track with your goals, even when you make occasional small deviations (like eating ice cream on a diet).
  • Building Resources: Our work builds tremendous internal resources so that when challenges arise, you automatically apply your new skills to overcome, change, and even enjoy them.
