Good grief. Show me meta-analyses of double-blind peer reviewed work - verifiable, repeatable and leading to predicting future outcomes. You can't, because NLP is hocus-pocus. It was so thoroughly discredited way back in the 1980's that you can't even find any credible research that isn't 20 years old. Snake-oil for the modern world. Catharsis as commodity. Any benefits you have noticed are almost certainly merely due to providing someone with empathy, rapport, unconditional acceptance and the precious rare experience of being fully attended to. But that's all. Anecdotes are not evidence. People can go to any free local befriending service for the same outcome. You charge people money for this? Good grief.
