What format does the 24-hour program take?

The program is divided up into three sections, and then there may well be some things you need to do, some homework, to follow through.

The first part is about understanding you. We will ask you questions about your problem and the history. The second section is focussed on understanding the success principles that we'll be using and how and what you need to do to get the most value out of the session. The last part of the session is where we teach the techniques that we believe are necessary to get rid of your problem right now. We do not believe that your only option is to control this problem. At The CTRN Phobia Clinic we know that you can get rid of it completely.

When we're done you will have some simple homework to complete to ensure you get the results you want.

 

What if I don't want to change the way I think?
That's a tough one. All the problems we work with are to do with how you are thinking about something consciously or unconsciously, so the short answer is that if you don't change the way you think the problem won't go away. Here's how it works. You feel you have a problem when your mind is only able to see things in single or a limited number of ways. All the processes we use do is to help you create superior unconscious flexibility, and greater conscious understanding.

Seriously — How quick are the changes?
You may have seen The John Walsh show recently on NBC, where a member of our team had an audience member completely and permanently eliminate a phobia in 10 minutes. Most take quite a bit longer than that. We find most of our clients make substantial changes in 2-5 hours, and we guarantee the results when you commit a full 24 hours of your time to the process.

 

Will I need a doctor's referral?
Maybe. If it is the kind of problem for which you should see, or already have seen a doctor, then yes, you will. Simple isolated problems like Fear of Flying or Public Speaking typically do not require a referral, but depending on your history we may ask for one anyway. Click here if you think you are likely to need one.

 

Do you work with children?
Yes, and only ever with the consent of their parent or guardian. Children very much enjoy the processes and are highly responsive to change.

Is it Hypnosis?

No. This isn't hypnosis. Our work is based on the techniques of Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Time Line Therapy™.

 

What is it then?
The technical names for what we do are Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Time Line Therapy™. The problems we help are all to do with the way you perceive the world at an unconscious level. This is important because this is where you have been running the unwanted pattern... your unconscious. That is why you have felt that you had no control over the process once it begins and as it progresses. NLP & TLT processes allow you to quickly make changes at an unconscious level to feel back in control — your 'old self' — instead of feeling powerless. Now you are now able to make the necessary changes and establish the pattern that you want.

 

How can you solve a problem I've had for years in just a few hours?
First, we won't be solving it: you will. You are the only person who can. We have the map of how to get from where you are now to where you want to be — and you walk the path. Its an easy and enjoyable path — but only you can walk it.
As for the speed of change — you've always been able to change fast. You've probably had an experience where, for instance, there was someone you didn't like for a long time. Then one day they said something kind, or you heard about something wonderful they had done, and immediately you felt differently about them. So you'd felt one way for a long time — then in a few moments everything changed.
Problems of the kind we help work like an electric light. It takes the same amount of time to turn it off no matter how long a lamp has been on... you just need to know where to find the switch. We know where to find the switch.

Are these techniques well proven?
NLP was developed at the University of California in 1970s and since then millions have experienced its efficacy. NLP has been experienced by three Presidents of the United States, top sports teams, business people, governments and celebrities including members of several royal families, the late Princess Diana, Greg Norman, Anthony Hopkins and Andre Agassi (who returned from way down in the rankings to #1 in the world within a few weeks). Time Line Therapy™ was discovered by Dr Tad James, Ph D, one of the first Master Trainers of NLP, and has enabled hundreds of thousands to release the 'baggage' of their past.

 

Is your Success Rate High?
We're very, very pleased with the success of our clients. As we guarantee money back to clients who aren't happy with their results we have to ensure great results or we wouldn't be able to offer our service. Overall our success rate is around 95% — we believe it is closer to 100% when you truly want to eliminate the problem, trust and engage in the process and then follow through with any homework you are given.

 

If these techniques are so successful then how come my doctor & I have't heard of them?
NLP is a relatively new process and has only been used for the last quarter of a century or so. Time Line Therapy™ techniques have been developed over the last 20 years. So as far as the medical profession goes, these techniques are quite young. Often the best new innovations can take a while to be adopted widely. 20 years ago very few doctors would refer patients to a chiropractor — now that's the first place you'd go with a back problem.
NLP & Time Line Therapy™ have grown out of and are somewhat based on the techniques of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, developed by Dr. Aaron Beck in the 1960's, Virginia Satir, considered one of the worlds greatest family therapists, Fritz Perls, the father of Gestalt therapy, and Milton Ericson a medical doctor and psychiatrist in the 50-60's.

Will I be in control the whole time?
Absolutely. You feel clear, confident and in control at all times — and amazed at how easily you changed.

 

How do I know I have an unconscious mind?
Have you ever driven from point a to point b, gotten out of the car, and thought, "wow, I don't even remember driving here." Well if you don't remember it, then who drove your car? You did of course, but you did it unconsciously. You could think of other things while driving and still manage to get to your destination safely. And now the unwanted pattern that you have is run in your unconscious and therefore you may not consciously recall how or what sets it off, it just seems to happen.

 

Is it Okay if I don't remember how the problem started?
Yes, its fine. In fact most clients have no idea how the problem started.

back to top

How does Time Line Therapy™ create such fast change?
Time Line Therapy™ is a set of techniques which allow you to eliminate any negative emotions and limiting decisions of your past creating a baggage-free you. Negative social conditioning and our own limiting decisions (which are stored and even created at the unconscious level as values and beliefs) continue to influence our present and future unless we release these roadblocks.

 

How will I feel after a session? Will I be or feel different?
Our objective is for you to become aligned with the person that you want to be — your true self. Freeing yourself of issues in your past that are keeping you feeling uncomfortable in your own skin, feeling like an imposter (others view you one way but you view yourself a completely different way inside and you say things to yourself, like "if they only knew the real me"), feeling like you must always compare yourself with others, or any other thoughts or feelings that hold you back will allow you to create the life that you want.
You may or may not feel immediately different after the session but you will be empowered and confident that you have the techniques necessary to completely release the old issue. About 30-40% of our clients go in to a situation where they may have previously felt uncomfortable and be successful or free of the old issue without even having to think about it. The other 60-70% need to follow through on some simple homework: a conscious conditioning program in order to ensure their success. This conditioning program is a requirement for every client to ensure success because we cannot predict who will integrate the changes at an unconscious level immediately or over time.

 

Do you use EMDR therapy?
No, we don't. We're not trained in EMDR and the techniques are quite different.

back to top

What kind of Doctors are you?
That's a trick question. We're not doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists or any other kind of traditional medical or mental health professional. We are highly qualified in the fields of NLP and Time Line Therapy™, which are considered alternative fields.

 

Are you Experienced?
Every one of our practitioners is not only a Certified Master Practitioner of Time Line Therapy™ and Neuro-Linguistic Programming, but also a fully accredited Trainer, certified by the Time Line Therapy™ Association to teach and license the next generation of practitioners.

 

Should I stop taking my Medication?
Because we aren't doctors we cannot and will not ever advise anyone about whether or not to take medication of any kind. Any decisions in this regard must be taken in conjunction with your physician or other appropriately qualified professional.

How Much Does it Cost?
Either less or a lot less than alternative methods, depending on the complexity of the problem you are solving. And, of course, nothing if you don't solve it. We take pride in our clients getting results as quickly as possible so the true cost of success with us is usually a fraction of any alternative method.

For example, traditional therapy for a phobia might involve seeing someone once a week for two years or more with no guarantee of results. Two years would cost you 100 hours therapy (plus your travel time) and, depending on the prevailing fee, US$10-20,000 or more with a good therapist. Our fees vary from case to case, but are always fraction of that. And in some cases, our fees can be reduced if you qualify for our Founder's Scholarship Program.

 

What is the Guarantee?
The details are spelt out on our guarantee page.

 

How is this so effective by Phone?
Our method starts by asking a series of detailed questions to determine exactly how you have been experiencing the problem — then we simply guide you through a series of easy, enjoyable yet powerful mental processes that create fast change. We've found this succeeds just as effectively by phone. When we started the company we saw clients in person, but soon received inquiries from around the world from people who wanted to work with us and could only do so by phone. We found it is so effective — and so much more convenient for our clients — that we now work exclusively by telephone.

Do you take Insurance?
No, we don't, but sometimes clients are able to claim against their insurance, we'll provide documentation to support a claim if required.

 

Do you offer any discounts?
No. We don't want you as a client, we want you as a successful client, and we have found that you'll get the best results when you make a clear decision to step up and do whatever it takes to be successful getting what you want. Someone who is only going ahead because they think they are getting it cheap wouldn't have the right motivation to be successful.

Our founder, Seymour Segnit, has set up a Scholarship Program which offers significant assistance with fees in some cases. Get in touch to see if you may qualify.
