Tony Burgess
NLP Practitioner in Stafford

I am a certified Havening Techniques® Practitioner and Trainer, listed with all certified Havening Practitioners and Trainers on the originator's website www.havening.org

PLEASE NOTE: If a therapist is offering Havening Techniques to you and is not listed amongst the Certified Practitioners on www.havening.org then they have not completed the necessary training and assessment to be certified as a Havening Techniques Practitioner and should not be offering to work with you in that way

I've had the privilege to have been Head of UK and Europe for Havening Techniques® from August 2014 to April 2017, having worked closely with the originators, Drs Ron and Steven Ruden. I've been honoured to have had the opportunity to personally train many Certified Havening Practitioners and Certified Havening Trainers globally. I have shared Havening in 11 different countries to. date and was Head of Trainer Training for the organisation for many years.

My Specialisms

Therapeutically, my main specialism is in working with people who are negatively affected by past traumatic events that they have experienced.

Approach to NLP & How I Work

For my main therapeutic work (helping people to ditch their past traumas) I now mainly use Havening Techniques®, NLP or a combinaton of the two approaches.

Therapies & Rates

Please note the rates detailed below are there to give you an idea of the therapists standard rates, we strongly advise you contact the therapist for more detailed rates and any offers they may have.

Therapy	Appointment Type	Rate

Additional Rate Information

Obviously, people contact us about very different situations that they want help with. Sometimes it is a very specific thing they want help with, such as wanting help to get rid of nightmares about a car crash they had recently. Other times it may be that there's a whole range of issues that are multi-faceted, such as having had years of abuse as a child plus a series of traumas and bereavements in adulthood plus working in a highly stressful job.. There is generally more work to be done in the latter case than the former. As a guide, my rates for therapeutic work are generally £180 per hour (= £150 + vat)
