What people are saying

"Our day with Nick Kemp was a turning point. The solutions are obvious as we look back on them! But on the day Nick found us confused and stressed and left us clear and focussed. We changed the company name to reflect the range of products we now have and this has immediately helped to communicate to existing and new customers so much better. Nick's direction has meant these changes are felt within the organisation as well. The ideas came from ourselves with his guidance - and this means we have so much more ownership of the process. The follow-up from Nick has also been welcome - checking, tweaking and confirming the original plan as it rolls out. The focus and clarity Nick brought to us has meant increased sales activity as well as a more efficient work pattern to deal with this. From struggling to striding!"

Mal Williamson - Director Engage Now - Nov 2008

"We wanted to help our staff consider that there is more than one response to a given situation, and help them explore a range of possibilities in terms of reactions. Alongside that is the awareness of the power and effect of language to help increase rapport, not only with colleagues, but with our customers.

Feedback from Nick's work was impressive, in the highly regulated world of insurance we do have to operate to a script when talking to customers to meet FSA requirements; however we are now looking at the specific words we use.

Additionally our staff are more aware of their 'state' as a major factor in improving our ability to perform tasks, and how to seek to control this."

Sue Lewis - Operations Manager,
Towergate Partnership Ltd

Each trainer will present their own style of working and their own tips and tricks developed from their clinical practices for producing effective therapeutic change.
This workshop will be an advanced level experience and all participants are expected to have at least some prior training in clinical and personal change work.

The Trainers

Nick Kemp first met therapeutic legend Frank Farrelly in 2006 and spent three years intensively studying Provocative Therapy to become a Farrelly endorsed Provocative Therapy trainer having attended many of his trainings as well as having hundreds of hours of one to one contact with him discussing the Provocative Therapy approach.
In 2007, Kemp released a DVD of his "Provocative Change Works™" approach which had commentary and an introduction from Frank Farrelly himself. Farrelly has been pivotal in developing this work and provided a great source of inspiration and encouragement.

Regarding Nick Kemp, Farrelly was heard to say:
"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!"

Doug O'Brien is a Master Practitioner and Trainer of NLP, and a Certified Hypnotherapist. In 1988, while assisting at NLP and NAC training seminars with Anthony Robbins, Doug achieved the designation of Master Trainer. He now conducts numerous seminars of his own around the globe (specializing in the "Sleight of Mouth" patterns of Robert Dilts, NLP Certification Courses, and Ericksonian Hypnotherapy) and helped found Columbia-Presbyterian's Department of Complementary Medicine.

"There are only a handful of people in the country whom I have personally trained and am totally confident in recommending. Doug O'Brien is one of these few." - Anthony Robbins, Author of "Unlimited Power" and "Awaken the Giant Within"

Andrew T. Austin is a controversial and sometimes outspoken NLP therapist and trainer who is now also the esteemed author of The Rainbow Machine - Tales of a Neurolinguist.
He is often the last port of call for clients who have exhausted all other possibilities and has often thought of calling his clinical practice, "last resort technologies."

"Andrew Austin is clear, original, and outspoken about mental illness, medication, and psychiatry. His skills were honed by years of experience in the "trenches" of psychiatry, so he knows what he is talking about" - Steve Andreas, author of Transforming Your Self and other books about therapy and personal change.

This AFPT approved event is an opportunity to learn Provocative Therapy from the source. The weekend will include an opportunity for some to work one on one with Frank Farrelly. Nick Kemp founder of The Association of Provocative Therapy and creator of The Provocative Icon System™ will be teaching many of the latest exercises that assist in developing insights into this therapeutic approach.

What People are saying about Frank Farrelly?

"Frank Farrelly's Provocative Therapy is like a treasure buried deep in the shadow of traditional psychotherapeutic modalities. These CD's provide you with a treasure map that lifts the techniques, methodology and attitude off the page and into the very real world of working with patients and clients. Be warned - while Frank is working with his clients, these CD's will be working on you..."

Michael Neill, NLP Master Trainer/Bestselling author on Frank Live in Leeds CD set

"Frank is a solid co-therapist -- not a carbon copy. His core of lovingness is easily apparent and available... He is also a wizard at destroying the meta-communicating bacterium 'why'. A body free of this bug may never be the same again. You've read Groddeck, Eichorn, Redl, Laing, Kopp... Read Farrelly!"

Carl A. Whitaker, M.D., Family Process.

"...your demonstrations of therapy... were really great. I liked your style enormously. All of your expressions of yourself while here were a kind of enlarging and expanding experience, combined with a total buoyancy we all need. Meeting you was the best therapeutic experience I've had in a long time."

O. Spurgeon English, M.D., Temple University Psychiatry Dept., Philadelphia, PA.

"Frank Farrelly... is a really exquisite example of requisite variety."

Richard Bandler and John Grinder, Frogs Into Princes.

What People are saying about Nick Kemp?

"Do you know Nick Kemp? - (he is) exceptionally bright, and I have immensely enjoyed communicating...The kind of exchanges that I have been having... are the kind of activities that I think can really advance the field."

Steve Andreas, NLP Author, Trainer, Developer

"Nick Kemp is what a trainer should be."

Doug O Brien - Master Trainer & Hypnotherapist

"I have known Nick Kemp for a number of years as both personal friend and mentor... no one has done more to promote Frank Farrelly and his highly effective treatment modality of "Provocative Therapy" than Nick Kemp. In 2004 when both myself and Nick met Frank Farrelly for the first time, the only readily available material was the classic 1973 book, "Provocative Therapy." Since that meeting, Nick and Frank have become firm friends and there is no doubt the rest of us have benefitted enormously from this unique relationship. Now with numerous audio and DVD training products produced and promoted by Nick Kemp, Frank Farrelly's work is more readily accessible than ever before.

With this is mind, I had the very great pleasure of attending Nick's first "Provocative Change Works™" course in Leeds. Having extensively studied Provocative Therapy and seen Frank work one-to-one sessions live with clients on several occasions, I was astonished at the level of expertise demonstrated on the stage. I have no doubt that with his modelling skills, Nick Kemp has managed to "get" the PT model in its entirety. Watching Nick interact with his clients left me in no doubt that he is the very embodiment of Frank's humour, wit, skill and flexibility. I suspect that anyone familiar with Frank Farrelly's style of working will get that spine tingling sense of familiarity when watching Nick work and that the mantle of Frank's ground breaking work has truly found its lineage, and his experience and dedication to detail makes him one of the best trainers and change work therapists in the UK today."

Andrew T Austin
Clinical Hypnotherapist, Neurolinguist & Author of "The Rainbow Machine"

Frank Farrelly's Provocative Therapy is one of the most fun and EFFECTIVE ways of helping a client to actually change since, well, ever. Nick Kemp is one of the few people on the planet who really understands what Frank Farrelly is doing in his Provocative Therapy AND CAN TEACH IT TO OTHERS. How do I know this? Because even after reading Frank's books, listening to his recordings and even sponsoring a live Provocative Therapy workshop with him in New York a couple of years ago, I was still in the dark as to what specifically it was Frank was doing and why it worked. When did I start to understand it all? When I sat down with Nick and he explained it to me. Nick has integrated Farrelly's Provocative Therapy with Ericksonian Hypnosis in a unique was that makes the original even better. He calls it Provocative Change Works™. He teaches it in a way that is fun and EASY to implement. YOU will be DOING it before the weekend is over.
