About the Founder
Christine
Sutherland is a behavioural therapist who has a counselling and
training background of 29 years, with a passion for research and
development of innovations in training and therapy. She is an
internationally-published author who has been responsible for
pioneering and developing neuro-linguistic and neuro-somatic therapy
applications suitable for clinical and corporate services.
Christine is the CEO and
founding director of The Lifeworks Group, and was responsible for the
development of an innovative group treatment program for clinical
depression, subjected to experimental trial in December 2000. Christine
was also responsible for the "Get a Life" program for schools,
subjected to experimental trial in April-May 2000, and a treatment
program for unrelieved chronic pain, subjected to experimental trial in
October 2001.
In her work as an
internationally-recognised NLP trainer, Christine has developed a
training program for Practitioner Certification the content of which is
in advance of the current world standard and which is also available as
an on-line distance learning program.
Christine's long
involvement in the corporate sector, particularly in relation to
Quality Assurance and Total Quality Management, Process Mapping and
Systems Development, marketing, human resources, and financial
management has made her a valuable advisor for businesses reaching for
sound growth.
Christine is also a
co-founder of BMSA International,
a multi-lingual on-line resource for medical practitioners and other
licensed health professionals, dedicated to bringing more modern and
effective health interventions directly into supervised clinical
practice.
This is in line with her
commitment to bring new developments in health, well-being,
communication techniques and human performance within the reach of as
many people as possible.
On a personal note,
Christine lives in Perth with her husband John and dog Tarzan, and is
also a mother of 2 children and 2 step-children, and recently became a
grandmother for the first time. She is a keen tennis player who
unashamedly uses her NLP tools to get the jump on the opposition
wherever possible. In her own words “This stuff is too good
to use only with clients!”
If you, like Christine,
have NLP skills, you will want to use them in every single area of your
life to make just these kinds of solid, positive, measurable
improvements.
