Background on Nick Kemp

In 2004 Nick Kemp first met Frank Farrelly at a small gathering on the south Coast of England and subsequently spent three years intensively studying Provocative Therapy to become a Farrelly endorsed Provocative Therapy trainer.

In 2004 Nick Kemp began presenting NLP workshops in the UK as well as writing numerous articles for a number of international magazines. In 2005 he set up the acclaimed website,  NLPMP3.com as a free NLP resource which reflects views from many different schools of NLP in order to share resources anf promote healthy NLP discussion and debate. In 2006 Nick was invited as a special guest on BBC Radio and for a 26 week period worked with numerous phobics live on the radio for an hour each week, successfully curing all the phobics who volunteered as clients for these sessions. In 2007 Nick released a DVD entitled  "Provocative Change Works™"  which has commentary and an introduction from Frank Farrelly himself. Frank Farrelly has been pivotal in developing Kemp's own work and has been a great source of inspiration and encouragement:

"You are totally disarming and beyond formalisation. There is ease and naturalness about you and you make people relax really quickly. You got the power man!" Frank Farrelly to Nick Kemp

Nick is currently working with Steve Andreas to formally write up some of the exercises he (Nick) created for working with clients. Nick runs Nick Kemp Training which offers corporate trainings to business and "The Art of Good Fortune" workshops which explore the power of intention and attraction.

Private Therapy Sessions

Nick also owns a highly successful private practice in Leeds, where he sees numerous clients privately per year using the Provocative Change Works™ approach to successfully deal with a wide range of client conditions.

Nick Kemp Testimonials

"I’ve watched the work of Fritz Perls, Anna Freud, Carl Rogers, Moshe Feldenkrais, Alexander Lowen, and a few more of the “names” in the psychotherapy field. Your clinical work surpasses some of them now, at a comparatively young age. Given your passion for clinical learning, love of people and creative spirit, I suspect I’ll be dropping your name onto that list of recognized “names” in the psychotherapy field one day." Frank Bourke Ph.D Executive Director of the NLP Research and Recognition Project, former lecturer Cornell University and researcher London University

"Nick Kemp, what a guy, I mean he's really something else. He helps people get rid of phobias that they've had for 34 years. Well the BBC heard about him and they went and saw what he was doing and... 'We want you on, you know, every week' and stuff like that and said 'Why don't we do a couple and so he did'. This is BBC radio and so he did it. People called in and stuff like this you know. So then they got so excited because the calls... the switchboards just lit up like a Christmas tree you know. So any rate this one gal... he would do this help her get rid of her phobia 'Are you sure you want to get rid of this phobia now'? She was terrified of birds, any kind of birds. Anywhere near her. Any kind of bird for 34 years. And her husband said 'That's all true too'. Everything. She had to go round them etc. He got her. He did the therapy and then walked her outside and they followed her with cameras and stuff like that and they showed the studio audience... and she was feeding the pigeons. And her husband said 'This is surreal, it's unbelievable'. This can't be true, but there it is.

The BBC wanted him every single day for the rest of his life but he said 'No, no, no, once a week is ok'. On his website and on mine he talks about (a) having heard about Frank Farrelly (b) Frank Farrelly's still alive and doing workshops and Frank Farrelly is coming to England and where? Finally he finds out down in Bournemouth which is on the south coast and on both those two websites he talks about his experiences of coming to a workshop and he's a big NLPer and has worked with Richard Bandler. So he thinks "I'm going to follow this guy and see what he does". If you're interested in NLP and provocative therapy you want to read his stuff on the internet. What a guy. What a guy. And he's got a heart of 144 carat gold!" Frank Farrelly

"Nick Kemp has modeled two different simple processes which are part of his Provocative Change Works™ set of tools for working with anxiety and other strong emotions that I have found enormously useful in working with clients. He has also modeled the different patterns in Frank Farrelly's Provocative Therapy so that they are easy to learn. In addition, he is everything you might wish for in a colleague - available, creative, eager to discuss ideas and learn as well as teach." Steve Andreas

"Your presentation for the HypnoSummit was GREAT! It was exactly what was needed. I don't know if you were watching or not but you had a full room and they were all loving it. You are a great presenter and your material has great value. I've already heard some feedback that people would like to take training with you. I told them you will be presenting with Steve Andreas this summer. I hope some of them show up for that. Thank you for your support and participation. We look forward to working with you again for future HypnoSummits." Melissa Roth and Scott Sandland
