			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>At Integrated Personal Solutions, we take your health and fitness training seriously!</strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff9900;"><strong><span style="font-size: small;">KEYS TO SUCCESS:</span></strong></span></p>
<p>Having clear and realistic goals and expectations agreed between both parties before any training commences.</p>
<p>Tailoring all weight loss and fitness programs to each individual based upon your own goals and your initial health and fitness assessment. No ‘one program fits all’ approach here!</p>
<p>An absolute commitment to the process required to make the desired changes, including consistency, frequency and effort made in your training.</p>
<p>Openness to learn, flexibility and willingness to make some changes &#8211; ‘the first sign of insanity is to keep doing things the same way and expect different results!’</p>
<p>To understand that we are looking for long-term lifestyle changes, not a quick fix or another magic diet where as soon as you stop and go back to old habits, you will put the weight straight back on.</p>
<p>A structured framework and lifestyle plan, which enables you to integrate new dietary habits as part of your lifestyle.</p>
<p>Making your sessions both challenging and fun by offering you a diverse range of fitness training exercises.</p>
<p>Different from other personal training programs; we go beyond kilos and centimetres lost, by emphasising positive attitudinal changes that ultimately lead to long-term results.</p>
<p>Building trust in the relationship is imperative, so you can see through my actions that I do genuinely care and that I will encourage and support you through any difficult times throughout your journey.</p>
<p>On-going accountability between training sessions.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #000000;">A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge.</span>&#8230;<br />
<span style="color: #000000;">The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter:</span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;Sweetheart, please hold my hand so that you don&#8217;t fall into the river.&#8221; The little girl said:</span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;No, Dad. You hold my hand.&#8221;</span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;What&#8217;s the difference?&#8221; Asked the puzzled father.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;There&#8217;s a big difference,&#8221; replied the little girl.</span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">&#8220;If I hold your hand and something happens to me, chances are that I may let your hand go. But if you hold my hand, I know for sure that no matter what happens, you will never let my hand go.&#8221;</span><br />
<span style="color: #000000;">In any relationship, the essence of trust is not in its bind, but in its bond. So hold the hand of the person whom you love rather than expecting them to hold yours&#8230;</span></p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;" align="center"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>‘Do you feel like something is holding you back from achieving more in your life?’</strong></span></h1>
<p>Are you <strong>feeling stuck </strong>and unable to move forward? Perhaps you <strong>lack direction,</strong> <strong>feel overwhelmed </strong>or<strong> out of control, </strong>or<strong> are</strong> <strong>you</strong> <strong>procrastinating</strong> and you don’t<strong> know what to do next?</strong> Perhaps you <strong>lack the confidence, the clarity, or the motivation</strong> to take the next step …</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>How much frustration is this causing you</strong>?</li>
<li>How much does it <strong>affect your ability to live to your full potential? </strong></li>
<li>How is this <strong>impacting the quality of your life?</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/-lBoSw1TsT0" frameborder="0" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p>
<p>Well at last here are <strong>unique and highly successful life coaching programs</strong> which make use of the latest solution-focused mind techniques that will help you achieve your goals in a fraction of the time, whilst uncovering a whole new level of self awareness! We will help you <strong>clarify your direction, </strong>whilst <strong>removing the limitations </strong>that are holding you back, and<strong> significantly improve the quality of your life</strong> by helping you to <strong>get off that treadmill</strong> and <strong>get real about the kind of life you want!</strong></p>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“Since my very first session with Michelle, my life has taken a very sharp positive turn. Michelle has <strong>helped me access courage and strength</strong> that I’d not known existed in me. This has allowed me to take responsibility for myself and know that whatever life throws at me, I can deal with powerfully. Michelle’s genuine desire to help me was clear from our very first conversation and <strong>her professional yet personal approach</strong> made it very easy for me to trust and be open to any process we went through. I often think of Michelle, and also refer to her in conversation, as the person who <strong>saved my life but what she did was so much more; she gave me the ability to save my own life and make it an extraordinary one</strong>.”  <em>Jo</em></p>
<p>The major <strong>keys to your success</strong> in achieving more in life, starts with <strong>identifying exactly what you want in your life, identifying and removing the limitations that are holding you back, </strong>and then<strong> developing and implementing a realistic action plan </strong>to get there.</p>
<p>It doesn’t matter if this relates to health, wealth, work, relationships, family or any other area of your life – the 3 step process is still the same<strong>… </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Step 1 – Identify<strong> what it is you really want in your life</strong>. Who do you want to be, what do you want to have, and what do you want to do in this lifetime? Perhaps you’ve asked <strong>what is my real purpose in life </strong>or<strong> what does my ideal life look like? </strong>Without this clarified, how do you know what to do next?  If you were to jump in your car and start driving but you didn’t know where you were going, how would you know which way to turn when you came to a cross road?  It’s the same in your life, that’s why we need to identify what it is you really want, in other words <strong>what is your destination</strong>?</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Step 2 – <strong>Identify and remove any limitations </strong>that act as barriers on the road you are travelling on, and hold you back from achieving your dreams. Perhaps part of your life vision is to build financial wealth but you have a belief that money is the root of all evil! Then there would be a huge conflict before you begin, as part of you wants to build financial wealth and part of you doesn’t! This conflict would absolutely hold you back so it needs to be removed <strong>by working with both your conscious and subconscious mind …</strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Step 3 – With your destination identified and the road now clear of those roadblocks,  it’s time to <strong>develop your road map to get you to your destination</strong>. You’ll develop goals and an action plan to achieve what you truly desire. Then we <strong>support you and hold you accountable</strong> to get those tasks done…</li>
</ul>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“The last session that I had with Michelle has <strong>really turned my life around</strong>. I was suffering from what I like to call the ‘super woman syndrome,’ the one where you think you can do everything… the problem was that I was under-doing everything. I had too much on and was blaming myself for not achieving the results that I wanted. Working with Michelle <strong>has given me my life back</strong>. I’ve re-worked my schedule, decided on the <strong>direction that I want my life to head</strong>, cleared time for fun &amp; <strong>great opportunities </strong>are beginning to come through for me. I know that the results I’ve achieved would not have happened so quickly if I had not met Michelle. She has integrity, spirit &amp; a dedication to helping those around her.” <em><strong> </strong>Kelly</em></p>
<p>As an<strong> experienced and professionally trained Life Coach, Psychologist and Hypnotherapist </strong>I have developed a <strong>highly successful 12 week program</strong> that follows this three step process.</p>
<p>In your <strong>Personal Success Coaching Program</strong> we:</p>
<ul>
<li>Identify exactly<strong> where you are now and where you want to be, </strong>helping you to understand what you really want, <strong>your true purpose and your dreams. </strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><strong>Identify your limitations that are holding you back; </strong>the underlying psychological patterns that are preventing you from achieving what you want.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>We will first <strong>work with</strong> <strong>your conscious mind to expand your awareness</strong> of your current thoughts, belief systems, emotional state, and behavioural patterns at a conscious level, and we will <strong>change your current disempowering beliefs and false perceptions that are holding you back</strong>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Then we <strong>will work directly with your subconscious mind,</strong> as internal conflict occurs when your conscious and your subconscious minds are not working together. Imagine your brain as a ship where your conscious mind is the captain and your subconscious mind represents the crew. The captain may wish to direct the ship in a certain direction, but if the crew aren’t working with the captain…well there’s mutiny! So we work directly with your subconscious mind to align it with your conscious mind by using proven techniques like <strong>Hypnosis</strong>, <strong>Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)</strong> and <strong>Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).    </strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>With a clear vision and destination, and with your old roadblocks out of the way, we’ll then <strong>develop practical goals and an action plan </strong>to achieve your true desires in life. We will then<strong> hold you accountable </strong>in getting those steps done in your action plan to <strong>live</strong><strong> </strong><strong>the kind of life that you truly want and deserve!</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>By the end of your 12 week program <strong>you will have the clarity, the confidence, and the plan to move forward in life and to start living the life you truly desire! </strong></p>
<p>In fact we are so confident that <strong>you</strong> <strong>will find this program both comprehensive and valuable</strong>, that we offer a full <strong>100% money back guarantee!</strong><strong> </strong>If at the end of your program you are not satisfied, and you have completed all set tasks and have attended all scheduled appointments, then <strong>we will refund your money in full</strong>.</p>

<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“Working with Michelle has certainly <strong>exceeded my expectations</strong>. I contacted Michelle initially to deal with issues relating to feeling <strong>weighed down by life</strong> and motherhood. Little did I know that meeting and working with Michelle would <strong>genuinely change my life</strong>. After the first session I had already begun to feel and see the <strong>benefits in many areas of my life</strong>. The <strong>holistic approach</strong> used ensures that no area of my life was unaddressed. Michelle has a genuine desire to help people and her enthusiasm and belief in the benefits of her work is infectious. I can truly say that I am now <strong>more confident, calmer and happier</strong>…..a better mother and a better person. With Michelle’s help <strong>I am now living a life that I previously would not have seen as possible.”  </strong><em>Bec</em><strong><em></em></strong></p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>‘Do you have low self-worth or low self-esteem, or do you lack confidence and live with constant self-doubt?’ </strong></span></h1>
<p>Are you <strong>feeling unworthy? Do you lack self-esteem or self-confidence? </strong>Do you constantly compare yourself to others, and perhaps think ‘everyone’s better than me’ or ‘I am just hopeless’?<strong> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>How much</strong> <strong>unhappiness are you experiencing</strong>?</li>
<li>To what extent is it <strong>impacting the quality of your relationships?</strong></li>
<li>How much does it <strong>impact your ability to live your life </strong>the way you want to?<strong> </strong></li>
</ul>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/xwJVsoa8QWI" frameborder="0" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p>
<p>Well at last here is a <strong>truly unique program</strong> <strong>that has helped hundreds of people</strong> with low self-esteem and low self-worth. Building self-esteem is the first step towards your happiness and a creating a better life!</p>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;"><strong>“</strong><strong>I approached Michelle really confused about why I felt the way I did, unsure of myself and as a result of this my relationships with people were disconnected, my work was suffering and my inner self worth affected</strong>…. The tools Michelle has imparted are like gifts and my understanding of these tools continue to deepen as I continue to grow as a person and use them in day to day life. Michelle has empowered me and taught me to accept myself, let go of what I can’t control and allow myself to grow…. <strong>My life has changed in so many ways and it continues to do so</strong>…Though this <strong>journey I have accepted myself for who I am</strong>, you could say I have a better relationship with me and through this I am forming stronger connections with people and reconnecting with people in my life. <strong>My world has changed, I am present, excited and inspired.”  </strong><em>Nikki</em></p>
<p>The <strong>key to your success</strong> in improving your self-worth and self-esteem, starts with <strong>how you look at self-esteem … </strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Low self-esteem occurs when you compare yourself to other people, and you feel inferior to them.</strong> You may often put other people’s desires over yours; perhaps you are a ‘people pleaser’? And your inner critic; that constant voice of disapproval inside of you causes you to doubt yourself at every turn lowering your self-esteem even further and creating a negative cycle, this often <strong>causes unhappiness, depression and deep insecurity. </strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>But <strong>it’s your self – perception that makes you feel inferior to others and this is created from your limiting beliefs, psychological patterns and mindset</strong>. Habits in both our thinking and behaviours are merely pre-conditioned ways of responding to certain triggers or situations.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>So the key is to <strong>look at what negative patterns you have running in your life</strong> and together we can <strong>change these patterns, both at a conscious and subconscious level to break the negative cycle and start rebuilding your self-esteem …</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“I&#8217;m extremely grateful that I was able to work with Michelle. It is one of the greatest gifts I&#8217;ve given myself. <strong>I see the world in a whole new light and it is amazing</strong>. She helped me understand myself better and discover what I truly want from my life. <strong>I am happy, confident, driven and calm</strong>. With the life tools she has given me I will me able to ensure I feel this way for a life time. <strong>I would recommend working with Michelle to everyone.

<p>As a professionally trained and experienced Psychologist, Hypnotherapist and Success Coach I have developed a <strong>12 week transformational program</strong> that does exactly that; breaks through your personal limitations, it addresses the underlying habits and behavioural patterns that cause you to perceive yourself as inferior, and empowers you with practical tools to turn this around and to be able to utilise whenever you face challenges in the future.</p>
<p>In your <strong>Personal Empowerment Program</strong> we:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Determine the underlying psychological patterns</strong> that are keeping you in a low self-worth cycle.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Firstly we will <strong>work with</strong> <strong>your conscious mind; increasing your conscious awareness</strong> of your thoughts, emotions, and patterns of behaviour. Here we will <strong>challenge your current limiting beliefs and perceptions that are holding you back from being the best you can be</strong>!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>We <strong>will then work directly with your unconscious mind</strong>. Inner conflict occurs when your conscious mind and your unconscious are not aligned. What goes on in <strong>your unconscious mind governs how you feel and as a result how you behave</strong>! We work directly with your unconscious mind using techniques like <strong>Hypnotherapy</strong>, <strong>Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP)</strong> and <strong>Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). </strong></li>
</ul>
<p>By the end of your 12 week program <strong>you will see yourself and others in a completely different way – guaranteed! </strong></p>
<p>This program is absolutely life-changing, and we are so confident that we offer a full <strong>100% money back guarantee!</strong><strong> </strong>If you attend all scheduled appointments and complete all the set tasks, and you are not satisfied at the end of your program, <strong>we will refund your money in full</strong>!</p>

As everyone else who has ever worked with Michelle would know, she <strong>flips your life view on its head and gives you a whole new positive way to approach life</strong>. There were tears, light-bulb moments, and lots of smiles. Every day I thank Michelle for <strong>my new confident, cheerful approach to life</strong>. Don&#8217;t hesitate, ring her today! You won&#8217;t regret it.”  <em>Meagan<strong> </strong></em></p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>‘Are you suffering from stress, anxiety, phobias or panic attacks and can’t escape?’ </strong></span></h1>
<p>Are you <strong>feeling anxious, worried and afraid?</strong> Do you <strong>suffer from panic attacks, phobias or overwhelming stress?</strong> Perhaps you find yourself thinking <strong>‘this is all too hard’</strong> and you feel<strong> paralyzed by fear</strong> and unable to live your life …<strong></strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>How much</strong> <strong>anguish is this causing you</strong> and your loved ones?</li>
<li>How has is affected<strong> the quality of your life?</strong></li>
<li>How much does it <strong>impact your ability to cope with life on a daily basis? </strong></li>
</ul>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/SftezkSsVNA" frameborder="0" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p>
<p>Perhaps a doctor has told you that <strong>you have ‘anxiety disorder’ or ‘….phobia’</strong>, perhaps they <strong>prescribed you some drugs,</strong> maybe <strong>you’ve seen therapists</strong>, but <strong>nothing has changed -</strong> you still feel anxious, worried and afraid.</p>
<p>Well I understand how you feel. I suffered from severe stress and anxiety for many years and nothing I did seem to change how uptight and anxious I felt for months on end, and my health was deteriorating as a result.  It was not until I had a bad ‘wake up call’ one day, that I realised things really needed to change or I was in big trouble!</p>
<p>As a result of that ‘wake up call’, I have now spent many years studying psychology and a number of other modalities, and have worked in the field for over 15 years and as such <strong>I have the knowledge, the expertise and the true desire to help you! </strong></p>
<p>We’ve developed a <strong>life-changing program</strong> that has helped hundreds of people <strong>completely eliminate their anxiety, phobias and panic attacks, </strong>and have <strong>empowered them with the tools</strong> <strong>to effectively manage it, should it ever arise again in the future. </strong></p>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;"><em></em>“I was <strong>a complete mess and I couldn’t leave home</strong>, I was diagnosed with <strong>agoraphobia</strong> by a psychiatrist and was given <strong>drugs and they made me feel more anxious and sick</strong>. I felt desperate and I came across Integrated Personal Solutions on the internet and liked what I read so I went to see Michelle. Having completed her anxiety program now <strong>I am a completely different person</strong>, and <strong>I can’t believe how simple it ended up being to cure my anxiety </strong>that I put up with for so long! If you suffer with anxiety do not hesitate in contacting Michelle, you won’t regret it she is awesome.”  <em>Stacey</em></p>
<p>The <strong>key to your success</strong> to improve the quality of your life and to achieve the outcomes of this program starts with <strong>how you look at anxiety, phobias and panic attacks….</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Anxiety, phobias and panic attacks are the result of <strong>living in fear or constantly worrying about what may or may not happen. </strong>Fear builds up often from something in our past that we link to the future. We look at the future from the view point of the past and live in fear that an event from the past will happen again, <strong>making the future something you fear leading to severe stress, anxiety and panic attacks.</strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Fear and stress is a natural self-preserving human reaction to a life threatening danger, but excess fear and stress is not natural.  What typically happens to people suffering from recurring anxiety attacks is that <strong>when they can’t find identifiable stressors to rationalise their anxiety, they begin to turn it inward – the brain invents the explanation that they must be going crazy</strong>, but this is not the case.  It is important to understand the physical relationship of what is occurring in your body in order to learn to manage it effectively, and not get too consumed about thinking you are crazy, instead you need to focus on <strong>gaining control of your thoughts, your emotional state and your physical body.</strong><strong> </strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>The medical system is quick to<strong> label the problem</strong> and <strong>medicate for the symptoms, but this does not address the causes, nor does it offer any practical coping strategies to manage the problems!</strong> Then you <strong>become fearful and anxious in stopping the medication</strong> because you know nothing has changed, so why would you feel any different right?…and so the cycle continues with medication!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>So the key is to <strong>address the causes</strong>; identify the underlying patterns behind your fears and the triggers to your anxiety, whilst teaching you the tools to alleviate the debilitating physical symptoms associated with such conditions if they do arise…</li>
</ul>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“I was <strong>sick of living in fear day in day out, I was anxious of being anxious and I was having panic attacks on a daily basis, actually I couldn’t see the point of living</strong>! Luckily I had a friend who had seen Michelle for depression and suggested I see her.  Michelle not only made me feel comfortable immediately, but I really got the sense she understood what I was going through and she could help me. And <strong>now I never look back, and I am free to live life without feeling terrified and 6 months later still no panic attacks</strong>, I just wanted to say a huge thanks!”  <em>Mark</em></p>
<p>As a qualified and experienced Psychologist and Hypnotherapist I have developed a <strong>unique 8 week program</strong> that does exactly that; it identifies the causes of your fears and the triggers for your anxiety, whilst teaching you the tools to deal with it when it does arise.  In our proven <strong>Integrated Anxiety and Stress Management Program</strong> we:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Identify the core psychological patterns</strong> (the underlying causes) and triggers that are keeping you in the grips of fear.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Initially we will <strong>work with</strong> <strong>your conscious mind to increase your levels of self-awareness,</strong> and <strong>teach you transformational tools</strong> to change your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours <strong>to get you out of the fear cycle.</strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Then we <strong>will work with your unconscious mind directly, </strong>using powerful techniques like <strong>Hypnosis</strong>, <strong>Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) </strong>and <strong>Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP).   It is y</strong><strong>our unconscious mind that determines how you feel, and also how you behave, </strong>and inner conflict occurs when your unconscious mind is not aligned with the desires of your conscious mind.</li>
</ul>
<p>By the end of your 8 week program <strong>you will be able to move forward in life, without living in constant fear!</strong> <strong>We have helped hundreds of people who have been suffering from the </strong><strong>debilitating physical symptoms associated with</strong><strong> anxiety, phobias and panic attacks.</strong></p>
<p>We are so confident that you will find this program life-changing, that we offer a full <strong>100% money back guarantee!</strong><strong> </strong>If at the end of the program you still suffer from anxiety, phobias or panic attacks and you don’t feel that you have the tools to manage it, then <strong>we will refund your money in full</strong>.</p>
<p><strong>Call 07 5593 2857 NOW</strong> or <a href="../contact-us.html" target="_blank"><strong>CONTACT US</strong></a> to see if <strong>Integrated Anxiety and Stress Management Program</strong> is for you. <strong>W</strong><strong>e also offer private health insurance rebates!</strong></p>

<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“Since my very first session with Michelle, my life has taken a very sharp positive turn. Michelle has <strong>helped me access courage and strength</strong> that I’d not known existed in me. This has allowed me to take responsibility for myself and know that whatever life throws at me, I can deal with powerfully. Michelle’s genuine desire to help me was clear from our very first conversation and <strong>her professional yet personal approach</strong> made it very easy for me to trust and be open to any process we went through. I often think of Michelle, and also refer to her in conversation, as the person who <strong>saved my life but what she did was so much more; she gave me the ability to save my own life and make it an extraordinary one</strong>.”<em>  Jo</em></p>

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>‘Are you suffering from depression and can’t seem to find a way out of it?’</strong></span></h1>
<p>Are you <strong>feeling low, unmotivated, lethargic and unhappy?</strong> Do you <strong>lack purpose and meaning in your life?</strong> Perhaps you find yourself asking <strong>‘what’s the point?’</strong> And you<strong> feel los</strong>t in today’s world…</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>How much misery is this causing you</strong> and your family?</li>
<li>How much does it <strong>affect your ability to function day-to-day?</strong></li>
<li>How much does it<strong> impact the quality of your life?</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/WftnGBNKjWc" frameborder="0" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p>
<p>Perhaps a doctor has told you that <strong>‘you have depression’</strong>, maybe even <strong>prescribed you some medication</strong> and <strong>sent you off for some therapy</strong>, but <strong>not much has changed</strong> – you still feel low, unmotivated, lethargic and unhappy.</p>
<p>Well I know how you feel because I battled with depression for many years and felt desperate…but I was lucky enough to finally find some great help, after many failed attempts and almost ready to give up!</p>
<p>This inspired me to work in the field to help others who experience similar issues. Having spent many years studying psychology and numerous other modalities, and working in the field for over 15 years now, <strong>I have the understanding, the experience and the passion to help you</strong>!</p>
<p>We have a well-established and<strong> highly successful program that has literally helped hundreds of people with depression</strong> and has <strong>significantly improved the quality of their lives</strong>. By the end of this program it’s impossible to be anywhere near to where you were when you started!</p>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“<strong>Michelle has helped me more than anyone else has in my life</strong> and that’s in just 12 weeks. I’m now completely drug free after taking anti-depressants for the last 4 years. And over the last few weeks I’ve <strong>been in a beautiful place of peace and joy</strong>. So I really <strong>thank Michelle for helping me find my way again.</strong><strong>”  </strong><em>Toby</em> <strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p>A fundamental aspect for improving the quality of your life and achieving the outcomes of this program needs to begin with <strong>how you look at depression</strong>…</p>
<ul>
<li>Depression occurs naturally when <strong>you’ve lost touch with what makes you feel fulfilled</strong>…</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Feeling down is a natural human emotion, but it is <strong>how we cope with these feelings</strong> when we feel them, is what counts. The medical system is <strong>quick to label the problem</strong> as an illness; ‘depression’ and then <strong>medicates the symptoms, whilst not addressing the causes</strong>. Too often this leads people to <strong>feel totally disempowered</strong> and then they <strong>fall deeper and deeper into depression</strong> and get stuck in the negative cycle…and then they <strong>become fearful in stopping the medication</strong> because they know nothing has changed in their life, so why would they feel any different…sound familiar?</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Many conventional therapists see clients for months and even years talking about their problems. From our experience, <strong>the longer you talk about the problems, the longer you stay in them! </strong>We have proven over and over again that you do not need to analyse and dissect your problems to the ‘nth’ degree to make changes and move forward! It’s your <strong>perceptions and interpretations of the problems which are the real issue</strong>, and the <strong>patterns that you have developed to cope </strong>with your problems!</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>So we <strong>need to address the causes</strong>, and to help you to <strong>understand why you really feel stuck</strong> and to get you back in touch with what really matters. We will also be looking closely at your current <strong>choices, decisions and behaviours</strong>. With our <strong>solutions-focused program</strong> we will show you <strong>cutting-edge psychological tools </strong>to turn the depression around and <strong>break the negative cycle.</strong></li>
</ul>
<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“Michelle has really <strong>helped me to help myself to change my life</strong>. After being on <strong>antidepressants for many years</strong>, Michelle gave me the confidence to stop relying on them and I have now been off them for over 2 months. She taught me<strong> lots of great strategies for dealing with stress and depression</strong>, and she is very knowledgeable in regards to natural health. Thanks Michelle, I can now look forward to <strong>the rest of my life without medication</strong>!”<em>  Kate </em><strong><em></em></strong></p>
<p>As a <strong>professionally qualified and experienced Psychologist</strong>, I have developed a <strong>comprehensive 12 week program</strong> that does exactly that; it identifies the causes of your depression, breaks through your personal limitations, and empowers you with practical tools to turn it around and to be able to utilise whenever you face challenges in the future.</p>
<p>In your <strong>Personal Breakthrough Program</strong> we:</p>
<ul>
<li>Will work together to fully understand the <strong>underlying psychological patterns </strong>(or causes) that are keeping you in a depressive cycle.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>We will first <strong>work with your conscious mind to increase your awareness</strong> of your thoughts, emotions, and behavioural patterns at a conscious level, and we will <strong>transform your current perceptions and disempowering beliefs that are not serving you.</strong></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Then we <strong>will work directly with your unconscious mind</strong> using transformational techniques like <strong>Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Hypnotherapy. Your unconscious mind is responsible for how you feel and how you behave,</strong> so it is vital to work with this part of your mind to <strong>ensure long-lasting changes occur!</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>By the end of your 12 week program <strong>it’s impossible to be feeling anywhere near the way you were when you started! We have helped hundreds of people who have been on anti-depressants for many years!</strong></p>
<p>In fact we know that you will find this program truly life-changing, and because of this certainty we offer a full <strong>100% money back guarantee! </strong>If you have completed all the set tasks and have attended all scheduled appointments, and you are not completely satisfied at the end of the program, <strong>we will refund your money in full</strong>. That’s how confident we are in our program!</p>
<p><strong>Call 07 5593 2857 or <a href="../contact-us.html" target="_blank">CONTACT US NOW</a></strong> to talk about how we can help you and to see if the <strong>Personal Breakthrough Program</strong> is for you. <strong> Private health insurance rebates also available!</strong></p>

<p style="background: #FFE4B5; padding: 10px;">“Yay at last <strong>the heavy black cloud that was hanging over my head</strong> for such a long, long time has been lifted and I can thank Michelle…<strong>after loosing my baby daughter</strong> and going through a very painful cycle of grieving <strong>I felt lost and unable to break this cycle which was controlling everything in my life</strong>. With the grief came other issues from my past that I hadn&#8217;t dealt with, <strong>everything was stacking higher on top of each other</strong> and I knew it was all going to come crashing down very soon. <strong>After seeing numerous psychologists</strong> earlier on in my life and finding them very unhelpful I had become quite sceptical about ever being able to find someone who could help me. Luckily for me my angels sent me another angel in Michelle. From the first day I met <strong>her she made me feel at ease and comfortable</strong>. She has a beautiful <strong>nurturing soul but is also straight forward</strong> about what needs to be achieved and what we need to do to achieve it. I really felt like this combination made me succeed in reaching my goals. Thank you Michelle for changing my life, not just from me but also my family and friends as well<strong>. I can see my future very clearly now and I like what I see</strong>.”  <em>Casey</em></p>
