Thanks for responding »PartlyCloudy» ... In no way am I defending practitioners of NLP... Now that I can properly frame the principles and practices of my Mentor, David Peck, I see him as a researcher using the rhetoric of NLP as a tool... The ensuing therapy was mostly mainstream, provided the guidelines of his dual California certifications and licenses: LCSW from the Social Work side and MFCC from the Psychology side...

To play therapist in this bigger pond, he had to complete 5,000 hours of supervised internship working with literally all kinds of patients... Either side only requires 3,000 hours under supervision in order to qualify to take the test for California certification; and, yes, he had to pass both tests in order to get both certifications... Scuttlebutt has it that not many try out this path...

The payoff for him is that he was already a successful business man who hired a stable of therapists, some LCSW certified and some MFCC certified... This broadened his market appeal; and no one gets left behind... At one time, he had a total of 9 therapists plus himself under roof, complete with toddler daycare available...

I, toooo, only use the rhetoric, occasionally, when appropriate, and as an analytical tool... I can't "commit therapy" or I'll probably get charged with "Felony attempt to heal a sick mind"...

PS: Since Reagan closed all mental hospitals and evicted the patients turning them into the criminally insane; later declaring that fully 50% of all criminals are already crazy to ever commit a crime with him as Governor... (chortle, chortle, guffaw, guffaw)... But see, Reagan's Narcissism was a different class of crime; "Inexcusable Classism"....
