A great coach helps their client to find the resources in themselves to rise above their challenges and grow from them. And exceptional coach incisively gets down to the core, operational mechanism that created the challenge in the first place and helps their client make GENERATIVE change across contexts.

"Professionally Endorsed -
I don’t recommend many trainers or practitioners, but Doug O'Brien is as good as it gets when it comes to hypnosis and hypnotherapy – great tonality, really creative content and a precision with language that is all too rare in the field of Hypnosis and NLP. As well as these skills he is probably the best trainer in the world today on Sleight of Mouth and his Sleight of Mouth products are some of the very few I would recommend to my clients."
