Who else want to get paid $300 an hour to work with professional athletes, Broadway actors and rock stars and have them singing your praises afterward?

I’m humbled to say that this describes my life as an NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) Practitioner.

As an NLP coach, I’ve also worked with everyone from Presidents of corporations to drug addicts and schizophrenics… and some times that’s the same person!

It’s not just a job. It’s fun, challenging and fulfilling. I set my own hours, I don’t have to answer to a boss, and I travel the world as a trainer.

Best yet, I can teach you how to do it too.

Sign up for this year’s NLP Practitioner Certification Class and change your life.

Here are the dates: seven weekends over seven months: Nov. 5 & 6, Dec. 3 & 4, 2016; Jan. 7 & 8, Feb. 4 & 5, Mar. 4 & 5, April 8 & 9, 2017 (an additional weekend will be added either in May or somewhere in the middle of the schedule)

It’s not easy, but you can do it. Just ask our past participants.

A full fledged NLP Certification course is challenging, requiring an investment of time and effort on your part. Are you up to it?

Here are some notable comments from some notable commentators:

“There are only a handful of people in the country whom I have personally trained and am totally confident in recommending. DOUG O’BRIEN IS ONE OF THESE FEW!” Anthony Robbins, Author of Unlimited Powerand Awaken the Giant Within

“Doug O’Brien…impeccable professional expertise and integrity…caring commitment to helping people create empowering solutions. Rarely have I seen a therapist consistently demonstrate a caring that is equal to his skill as does this man.”Dr. Robert Bays, Author of The Five Lessons of Relationships

“I have known Doug O’Brien for many years and have been consistently impressed with his skill and integrity.  Doug is one of the rare teachers who are able to integrate NLP and Ericksonian hypnosis, so that students develop both conscious and unconscious competence. I confidently endorse him as a trainer, and as a person.”  Robert Dilts, Co-developer of NLP, Author of Sleight of Mouth

“I highly recommend Doug O’Brien of D.O.B. & A. He is  continually updating his training with the most up-to-date skills I have developed and is one of the few centers licensed internationally through the Society of Neuro-Linguistic Programming.” Richard Bandler Co-Creator of NLP™

“Doug O’Brien is that rare combination of humor, integrity and top-notch skills. If you want to learn NLP™, do this class.”  John LaValle, Co-Author of Persuasion Engineering

“Doug O’Brien’s ability to use NLP to teach NLP is probably the best I’ve seen in the business (and I don’t say that lightly – I’ve trained with pretty much all the big names).” Brian Mahoney, Boston Hypnosis

You might find you have an experience like these recent graduates:

“Doug demonstrated how to remove a phobia in our NLP class by using me as a volunteer.  Today, my anxiety with crowded elevators no longer exists!”  Jamie Friday, Wardrobe for THE BOOK OF MORMON a Broadway Musical smash hit.

“I signed up for Doug O’Brien’s class thinking I was doing it to help others, but I had a profound change in my self. After learning these techniques I had a shift in my trajectory; my focus became defined. My ability to “work out” my mind, control my emotion’s allowed me to lose a great deal of weight and become more successful in my career. People come up to me daily and say I look 10 years younger and there is something different about me. I discovered that ‘You can’t help others until you are in a strong place yourself.’ So if you are thinking about doing this course, make the jump. You will be amazed in the results and isn’t that what we all want? Change your trajectory now.”   Sean Claffey, Film Maker

“When I was an executive in the financial services industry, I worked with an NLP coach to help me navigate hurdles in my career and personal life.  After I retired, I pursued my passion for NLP and Ericksonian Hypnosis by enrolling in Doug O’Brien’s courses.   Now, instead of being a bored (and boring) retiree, I am certified and have a coaching practice I love. It’s deeply rewarding to witness clients making meaningful shifts in their lives. Enrolling in Doug’s program was a life-changer.” Nicole Young, NLP Coach
