PRESENTING PROBLEM - Frustrated client new to Coaching looking to create her ideal career.

Four months ago, I lost my job in broadcast news and asked Jonathan to help me find another. I was in an awful situation - a colleague had been promoted over me and it was clear I was never going to get ahead where I was. When Jonathan said the situation was "absolutely perfect" right now, I could have laughed.

But it was perfect. And in the months that followed, Jonathan helped me see the bigger picture and focus on identifying my needs and meeting them.

That was really vital because for the first time ever I began to understand why I'd made the decisions I had in the past. It also gave me a solid foundation with which to take my next steps. He introduced me to the principles of "attraction" (the idea of attracting people, ideas and opportunities to you instead of striving for them) and suggested that I take a number of his workshops, one of which was on Presentation Skills. This alone opened up several new avenues to me.

Amazing things started to happen. Suddenly the interviews began to appear... and offers rolled in. In the end, I had three exceptionally strong offers, all of which could have been perfect for me. The job I took, as a radio skills trainer for the BBC, paid almost 50% more than what I had been earning yet it was in an area I hadn't considered prior to working with Jonathan. It was an outcome I couldn't have believed was possible, but it became possible because my coach believed in me.

I have to admit I was skeptical about hiring a coach at first. It was no small challenge to be paying the price of a small mortgage at a time when I had no regular income. But I can assure you that if you want to achieve truly remarkable things and are willing to put in the work, hiring Jonathan as your coach will be the best investment you ever make. You will recoup your money many many times over.

Put simply, Jonathan offers unconditional support and encouragement to be and do whatever you desire. Now, who else do you know who can do that for you?


PRESENTING PROBLEM: 48 year old woman diagnosed with M.E.

To any fellow “ M.E.” sufferers, I was a primary Teacher, a “workaholic”. I loved and lived my job, but ended up having to take Early Retirement due to my falling prey to “M.E.”. I have had this condition for over three & a half years. The pains, tiredness, lack of energy, inability to sleep, the constant dragging feeling that I was never properly rested, always waking up with the pains still there. I had a constant “buzz” through my body. This possessed me and I knew it as a fiery red snake which writhed and coiled relentlessly through me. It was awful in my head, for then I couldn’t think straight or concentrate, Conventional medicine had nothing to offer me, instead, I enlisted the help of a Medical Herbalist and an Osteopath. I hit a dreadful bout of depression, and nothing seemed to pull me through, until my Osteopath suggested that I paid a visit to Jonathan Clark. Through Jonathan, I was introduced to the wonders of NLP. Jonathan is such a positive person, that you feel that there is nothing that you, he and NLP can’t conquer. I was apprehensive at first, but quickly learned to accept that my unconscious mind could heal me. In my second visit, Jonathan physically took away my “snake”. This had plagued me for three years. I just can’t explain the peace and relief I felt. It was wonderful. I don’t profess to understand NLP but all I can say is that it works. Over the summer I have grown stronger and stronger. I have found myself doing things that were beyond my capabilities for so long. Jonathan has given me a bubble of happiness and a positive feeling that I am going to beat my “M.E.” I still have many family problems to face, but I can handle things more effectively now. I have often read “Testimonials” from people and never believed that I would be in a position to write one. I am delighted to do so now, and would like to shout it from the tallest building, so as many people as possible could learn how to help themselves. My problem was “M.E.”, along with a mass of unwanted emotional baggage. NLP, through Jonathan’s capable expertise, has made me a new person. I know now, that so many other problems can be resolved by this process. I am so grateful to Jonathan. He has become my “fairy god-father” who waved the “magic wand” of NLP and created a miracle for me. I have energy now. I can feel happy. I even feel “normal” again. I have been given back my life. I sincerely hope that Jonathan’s work can expand, so that as many people as possible can receive the help and healing which is awaiting them. If you are feeling the way I did, do not hesitate, contact Jonathan Clark and experience the wonders of NLP. Yours sincerely,

PRESENTING PROBLEM: Female Primary School Teacher, panicking at the thought of standing up to do presentations at parents’ meetings.

Dear Jonathan, A quick, overdue letter to let you know that my presentations to the parents in my school went very well ! Apart from initial nerves at the beginning of the first presentation, everything fell into place, and by the time the second talk was due, I started to enjoy myself ! Far removed from the way I felt before my first session of NLP ! I am very interested in learning more about NLP and would be grateful if you would let me know details of any future NLP courses you will be running this year. Thanks again for all your work with me and for making it so enjoyable and interesting. Yours faithfully,

PRESENTING PROBLEM: 21 year old woman suffered repeated sexual abuse as a child, by a male relative.

Hi Jonathan, How are you. Firstly I would like to apologise to you for not writing a letter to you letting you know how I felt after the therapy. The therapy has really helped me out a lot. I needed help because there was a lot of frustration and anger. I always felt depressed. No inner happiness. There wasn’t any hope in life. I thought the therapy would be a bit like counseling, but it was perfect, relaxing, soothing. I felt as if I was telling my pain to a friend. I know that I can come back to you with confidence if I have any other problem. I have actually recommended your therapy to other people, especially the ones who have seen the positive change in me. Your approach was very sensitive to my personal issues, very understanding. Anyone that has sorted out my problems has got to be a brilliant professional, meaning you Jonathan. It has totally changed my life. I am able to control my emotions. I’ve not been depressed since the therapy, which I’m really glad of. I have been very happy and relaxed, a bit too much. I have made new friends. They are very nice, friends who like me for who I am. Sort of friends I always wanted to have. Jonathan, there have been many positive changes in my life for which I am very grateful to you. Thank you very much for your help. I wish I was able to say all these things to you in person. Take care, bye.

PS Thanks again.

PRESENTING PROBLEM: 36 year old Manager under pressure at work, complaining of deterioration of health

Dear Jonathan Ref.: My recent Breakthrough Session with you

A very Happy New Year to you. I know it’s going to be a great one !

I am writing to you to express my heartfelt thanks for helping me to achieve a series of fundamental breakthroughs in both my personal and professional life. These monumental life changes were only possible because of your undoubted expertise in the areas of NLP, Hypnosis and Time Line Therapy. This expertise, together with your professional approach, likable disposition and structured intervention have left me with the tools to sustain these positive changes. Being a commercially orientated individual, the only complaint is that you are far too cheap and as such over provide ! I hope you have put your prices up. I look forward to a “recharge” session with you in due course. Best regards

PRESENTING PROBLEM: Female ex-athlete in mid thirties, suffering recurring ill health & depression every few weeks.

I came to see you to improve my physical and mental health. I was impressed with your relaxed and adaptable approach, and that you allow the client to dictate the direction of the sessions. Now that we’ve worked together, I have a much improved energy level; more confidence in health; the panic and worry I was experiencing daily has gone; now have a framework for the direction and purpose of my life; more positive and enthusiastic; calmer, more contented. I feel I’m now moving forward to a really fulfilling & rewarding future. I am extremely happy to be one of your clients. I am thrilled with the progress made in such a short time and would have no hesitation recommending you to anyone. {This lady was so inspired by the speed and efficiency of NLP that she later went on to train and qualify as a Master Practitioner of NLP, Time Line Therapy and Hypnosis}

PRESENTING PROBLEM: Woman in early forties with congenital spine defect seeking help to lose weight, also advice for her uncle who had cancer

Dear Jonathan, I had this “compelling urge” to write you a letter. I cannot imagine why. However, please find enclosed the NLP information of which we spoke - this will make you even cleverer - can the world cope ? I feel extremely well, stunningly positive, determined and full of resolution - worked very hard at the gym on Sunday, also did some callanetics with my sister-in-law (she’s an instructor for same). Watched Paul McKenna’s video, ate very healthily - I have been as good as gold and am feeling wonderful. Also, my uncle said yesterday that he no longer has the awful feeling of dread which he had, and nor is he any longer afraid to go to sleep so that is through my “pottering about” with your guidance, so thank you for that. I shall keep you informed of progress. Thanks again. Love,

PRESENTING PROBLEM: 15 year old girl with phobia of spiders.

“I used to be afraid of spiders. If I came near a spider, my back would stiffen and my vision would go hazy with the only thing in sight being this menacing, hissing spider ! Jonathan cured me and now I can pick the little things up and get them to safety away from other arachnophobia sufferers.” {This young woman now works in Pet World !}

PRESENTING PROBLEM: 43 year old woman addicted to chocolate & painkillers.

“I’ve had a year of counseling, to no effect. Just 3 hours with you and I feel wonderful ! I’m no longer addicted to sweet things and at last I’m off the tablets.” {This took two appointments, and the lady later went on to qualify as a Practitioner of NLP}

PRESENTING PROBLEM: A Training company complaining of an unmotivated class who were bored and unreceptive.

Dear Jonathan, Just a note from your crazy friends to thank you ever so much for all your hard work last Tuesday. From what we have heard, everyone seems to have found it somewhere on the continuum from Enjoyable <--------> Astonishing. Anyway, it gave them plenty of food for thought. However, here it is, Tuesday again, and tonight we will have to work like dogs to get some life into them - think of us ! Thanks again and love from

PRESENTING PROBLEM: Difficulties in a business run by two female directors.

“I saw a card in a shop in Perth. It had a phone number on it. I must have seen thousands of these cards in my life, but this is the only one that changed my life because it brought Jonathan Clark into it. Here is someone who uses something simple, straightforward and acceptable to make changes in my life which were complex, multifaceted and marvelous. It doesn’t hurt and it only works.”

PRESENTING PROBLEM: None at all, this lady was simply curious as to how I could help her.

Dear Jonathan, How to ponder the imponderable. My personal energy levels were significantly raised, so much so that by eleven o’clock in the morning six hours of solid work have come about. Sleep has taken on a new form, more of rest than deadness itself, with continual awareness throughout the night. The balance that was brought about can only be described as one of magnitude. As you yourself know not something that can be truly explained. Only to be understood. July was especially a month of major shifts, always upwards. Meditation took on a completely new dimension. One of power and instruction and deep rest. Listening improved, hearing improved, understanding improved, courage improved - duties which were sometimes of extreme demand could be faced head on and immediately engaged upon. Sight improved and took on an extra depth which was absent before. The voice improved and singing has become a delight. The exercise of art, drawing and painting is far more effortless and swift. What you suggested on the friendship area surpassed all imagination - I myself became my own very best friend, complete in reliability and self-sufficiency. Life is shown to me in glimpses of a massive orchestra, of which I am the conductor.. Thank you for a service rendered with such pure intent. In divine friendship and love,

 - Ros Toynbee, Career Coach

Although I’ve done presentation techniques for 30 years it had never really gelled in my mind.  I can’t get over the difference it’s made for me.  I’ve done NLP before, I’ve done the Tony Robbins courses before, but until you get somebody who actually touches the inner core of your unconscious, it doesn’t work, and Jonathan does that.

 - Carol Bentley, Copywriter and Published Author

Someone once told me this would be a “life changing” experience and I was skeptical, however after the past 7 days, I feel the changes – I feel different, I think differently.  Wow!

- Debbie McCormack, Trainer

I can’t even see my obstacles!  I don’t have any obstructions now, the path is just opening up.  For the first time in many years I no longer feel overwhelmed.  There are things going on which I know that I’m not doing, and yet there is no other explanation other than it’s me.  Every time I go into a shop or restaurant they love me at first sight.  I know that I’m not doing it consciously, but the rapport skills have soaked in.  Things are really clicking into place, it’s such an amazing experience.

 - Jules May, Inventor

I have methods to control my emotions and feel my self esteem has directly improved – in addition to being well on the way to becoming a master communicator.

- Dr Tricia Granger, Dentist

My whole outlook has changed.  I am now more confident, happy, contented and relaxed.  I believe that this is where I was supposed to be.

- Susan Forde, Researcher

I wanted to be confident in my abilities, learn how to communicate with maximum effectiveness, let go of stuff, free my potential and go forth and practice.  Jonathan was very helpful and considerate, cared how we were doing but remained detached enough to be effective.  I have trust and confidence in myself and you.  Things are infinitely more open and bright.

- Kari Gillies, Scottish Power

I feel that I am released from so much that held me back – like a different person in the same skin, and changed forever.

- Maria Doherty, Hypnotherapist

Standard of conduct and professionalism was very high, the most complete training I have ever participated in.  I am confident in my choices and path in the future and have left the baggage behind.

- Tom McNamee, NLP Master Practitioner

As always well planned, beautifully delivered and great fun as well as many new learnings.  Feel more confident and more excited about my career.  What can you do to improve?  Not much – it’s hard to beat 100%

- Karen Lawson, NLP Master Practitioner

Instead of just knowing that I am in control of how I feel, I know how to do it!  I am enjoying increased energy from the Ha Breathing.  I am communicating far more effectively and my relationships with my family, friends and girlfriend have improved dramatically.  I really enjoyed the opportunity of spending a week with you – you are an amazing guy and your ability to deliver and your in depth knowledge inspires me very much

- Sandy Newbigging, Coach

My investment in your Practitioners and Master Practitioners training equates to approximately 1/3 of the total cost of my MBA.  In terms of value and return on investment your training puts the MBA in the shade.  There is direct application and immediate return on so many aspects of the trainings.  Thanks!

- Mike Tierney, Managing Director

I found the course absolutely mind blowing. Your presentation skills (something I know quite a lot about) are superlative. I learned a lot from you on so many different levels. Thank You.

- Erick Rainey, Coach & NLP trainer

I have received everything I expected and a whole lot more.  This has been a very emotional, fun and profound experience.  If people are interested at all in growing and changing for the better, you have to start training with Jonathan!

- Liesha Ross

HGE has far exceeded my expectations of NLP

- Kim Macleod

A fantastic journey – change, breakthroughs, learning, wisdom, it was all there.  Seven days of immersion with some fantastic people, its hard to find the words.  Enlightening, enabling, freeing, awe inspiring are a few that filter through.  It’s really whetted my appetite for what comes next.  Keep evolving.

- Ron Mills

I’m getting more out of this course than I did when we did it in Hawaii

- Pam Neill
