10/10 “”I loved it. Life changing in the most inexplainable ways one can ever imagine. I’ll warmly recommend it to everyone who takes their life seriously enough to want to have the most fun getting what they dare to dream. Thank you.
Exercises – when we practised and applied the techniques it was really helpful to have a trainer around at all times.”

“Explained each topic and demonstration (really well). Made you feel very comfortable on the course. I found her to be very approachable. She knows her stuff (NLP) really well!”
The NLP course is mind blowing. The techniques used are extremely effective. You need to do the practical course to believe it. Fascinating stuff. I loved everything to do with the unconscious mind. You need to do the course to fully understand and then came the ‘light bulb’ moments. I would definitely recommend this course. Sheila and Lenka are great and have perfected and ‘fine tuned’ the training to an art form. It was a pleasure to be on the course.” DS, Berkshire, March 2009
“Delivery style worked for me, a combination of visual and auditory has satisfied my learning style and I have enjoyed the course. Thank you. I have got very good value from the training. For me the combination is the course content, trainers personalities and style has made the course accessible.” RS, Hillingdon, March 2009
“What did we do really well – balance between practical and theory, creating right learning atmosphere, keeping a good pace and very good ‘live’ examples. Very helpful and practical even if you just used is as your own therapy, you would get lots from it!!” KO, London, March 2009
“I approached NLP with sceptism initially but through receiving several treatments from Sheila Patel - her high levels of professionalism and gentle empathy and manner delivered a highly successful outcome."
"When I discovered Sheila had now started training I decided to attend her first course as a personal development opportunity. I think it is probably the best money I have ever spent on a training course. Thank you Sheila.”

“I was a little anxious when I arrived for the training and I can hardly believe the transformation. Sheila has exceeded my expectations. What a fantastic week!
She has such incredible knowledge of the subject and is able to articulate it in such a way that it’s easy to understand and digest. Her attention to detail is such that she made sure everyone was where they needed to be. I was most impressed by her delivery style which is enjoyable and builds such enthusiasm for the subject. As a result we have bonded as a group. Plus we all got individual attention as Shelia was passionate about our needs being met. Incredible. This course has changed my life. Thank you for everything Sheila.“

“Sheila came to our office to hold a one-day ‘Business Excellence’ course for staff and managers, to show how our attitudes can affect our colleagues and customers and how we can improve how we communicate to others.
Some of the attendees were extremely sceptical about the benefits and didn’t see the point of giving up the day, but by the end of that day they were completely won over – to what Sheila was explaining and why people can act in a certain way without meaning to be off-putting to others.
The time was well spent and everyone agreed that Sheila is an excellent presenter who really knows how to put her point across. We have already decided to arrange the follow-up sessions with Sheila – this time with the full agreement of the staff.” MS, Harrow

"Dear D,
I have had exactly the same problem with my 9 yrs old son. He saw pics of missing madelaine and then developed this 'scared to go to sleep'. It began in August and we are still not 100% there as yet. I like you was at my wits end. He stayed up until 10pm everynight with me sitting upstairs until he feel asleep. I saw a CAHMS specialist who was rubbish. I then paid a lot of money and saw a... claybrook NLP therapist. She is based in Eastcote and she worked wonders. let me know if you would like her number.
Please contact me directly via email if you want her details. I only saw her once and she did something called Time line therapy. Good Luck"

“I wanted to start my own business and was very indecisive about the nature of the business. I kept changing my mind and then became very frustrated. I went to see Sheila and she was very quick to get to the bottom of the problem. Through the questioning she was able to hone in on problem areas almost instinctively. Using powerful techniques she worked on my beliefs and decision-making strategy. I thought Sheila had some amazing insights and I learnt so much from her. Sheila is very inspiring and I related to her gentle and caring approach. She has a way of bringing the best out in you. Soon, what I thought were problems, just became opportunities. I left with enthusiasm and clarity about my own strengths which I applied immediately to get my business off the ground.
I can recommend Sheila to anyone who wants to overcome problems, realise future goals and transform their lives.” NR, Manchester (March 2008) “Working with Sheila is very empowering; she has a knowledgeable, approachable and positive style. During our session Sheila was very focussed on helping me to resolve my problems and has helped me to see I have many more choices and possibilities than I ever thought possible. My motivation has increased tenfold enabling me to get much more done with the time I have available, it has stopped me procrastinating and wasting time. I am now more focussed on my future goals and what I want to achieve rather than on what I thought were problems. I am very grateful to Sheila for helping me see my future and know I can achieve it.” IM, Organisational Change Consultant, CHESTERFIELD.(March 2008)

“I have seldom had the pleasure of working with someone as professional, energetic and motivating as Sheila. I came to Sheila’s practice with a serious lack of self belief which was holding me back from building my own business. Sheila confidently led me through some very simple techniques which were both relaxing and empowering, in a way that built immediate trust. She has such an excellent command of a wide range of compelling techniques, that I was able to build my self belief to a level I’ve never experienced before. I left her practice feeling empowered, energized, motivated and have since moved forward in leaps and bounds with my company. I would recommend Sheila to anyone who is ready to make a transformational change to their lives, worth every penny!"

“Sheila worked with me for on an NLP session to address the issue of uncertainty over levels of business sales particularly where we had clients moving dates or canceling them. Within half an hour this had been addressed and I felt much more confident when situations like this occurred again. I was able to reframe the situation and focus on the positives e.g. getting more work”.

"I wanted someone of excellence to help me, Sheila did exactly that. Through her skilful use of NLP, Time Line Therapy and Hypnosis she has helped me make great positive changes that have given me the motivation and direction to change my career and ultimately my life. Sheila’s ability to weave different techniques together and her totally intuitive way she does this was so inspiring that I am sure Sheila will be able to do the same for anyone."
