What do you like about this subject?

I enjoy working with stress problems as it is one of the easiest areas to assist people to enjoy significant and lasting change, in a relatively short period of time.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

Continue to challenge myself with handling high stress experiences through regular skydiving. I have over 880 jumps to date, and coach relative work students in the art of freefall.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Many problems with stress and anxiety can be managed either by learning self hypnosis from a skilled therapist, or by utilising top quality self hypnosis tapes. Self help products, tapes and books are available to order online at my website at http://www.hypnosistapes-and-cds.com Author of Miracle of Meditation Beginners Meditation Handbook at; http://www.miracleofmeditation.com

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

I enjoy challenging my clients to take more responsibility for their own lives. For the past 4 or 5 years I have had good success with using a provocative approach, following closely Frank Farrelly's techniques taken from his book and teachings - "Provocative Therapy". Surprisingly stress and anxiety allows us to re-evaluate our situation and forces us to make changes.
