Centre for Life Therapies - Life Coach - Therapy - Meditation - NLP & Matrix Therapies Training

Sonya is a dynamic teacher who is valuable to the variety of business professionals and outgoing, fun people that connect. Learning to be a Hypnotherapist, NLP Practitioner and NLP Master Practitioner as well as a Matrix Therapy and Advanced Matrix Therapy healer touches on all the categories that differentiate AI from humans. This is a skill that is in demand now, and more importantly will remain a skill for the future as we master the Artificial Intelligence tools that sharpen the way we interact with each other and communicate on a global scale.

I highly recommend Sonya Furlong and the Centre for Life Therapies. 5 stars.

Sonya's NLP and Matrix Therapies training was fantastic! She makes learning easy and fun, adapting to different learning styles. Her welcoming environment allowed us to express ourselves comfortably.

A truly great course and environment to better understand yourself, others and circumstances around you. It is a boot camp for the most important muscle we have, our mind.

I have gained a deeper understanding of what NLP has to offer following on from the NLP 4 Leadership course. I had many breakthroughs during this training in particular Parts Integration and listening to Sonya’s live examples. I thought my reaction would not have been that intensive, but it was an intense moment and feeling of relief after the practice session with my partner. Also sharing my own life experience based on Matrix Therapies after Sonya’s demonstration helped me release some emotions that I thought I never had.

I have gained a tremendous amount of learning about myself, how NLP can help me in business, personal life and be a better person. Sonya is an excellent presenter and trainer, the Queen of NLP!

Sonya’s communication techniques, knowledge and expertise of the topics are excellent, and help us throughout the course, especially when we are stuck in a live practice session with our partner in class, she comes and offers tips where necessary. For example, in Parts Integration, I got stuck not knowing what else to ask about “intentions” and she helped. Fascinating to see the response and outcome from the Parts Integration. 10/10

Recently, I spent around 10 hours, over a few weeks, as part of a select group of BNI leaders in Sonya's NLP Leadership Mastering Language program. After 45 years in the business world, I honestly thought I'd heard it all and most courses and learning opportunities were 'refreshers' - openly embraced as reminders of all the best-practice things I should be doing and passing on to others.

If you have ever completed a course in DISC, Situational Leadership, Project Management or similar training, Sonya's NLP program will add another, deep and extremely valuable layer to your knowledge and skills set. The course tied up loose ends, cemented what I knew to be the 'right way' to communicate and showed me some great new tools to use in my own business.

I'm revising and, I KNOW, improving my communications training material as a result of what I learnt in Sonya's program.

Go with an open mind, whether you have completed courses in the past or are a 'newbie' - you WILL learn something that is new, valuable and useful - I promise.

Working with Sonya allowed me to better understand my motivations and my limitations. I was able to move past not only my most destructive behaviours but also to start to repair the causes of them.

For the first time in a decade I am able to genuinely relax. My life is by no means perfect but I now no longer fear the worst. The anxiety and fear that had become so part of my everyday life has gone, and as a result I have found that life has changed in unexpected and unintended ways from no longer biting my nails to losing weight.

I highly recommend Sonya for anyone that wants to improve their life or who has a particular issue to deal with. I can say from experience that you will be pleasantly surprised by the results if you let yourself go on the journey.

It's been a year working for Sonya and it has indeed a very enriching experience for me. I have not only learned a lot but has helped me in my overall career. Sonya also have a very proactive approach to employee wellbeing. Thank you Sonya! You're a great Boss!

This training helped me realize so many things about myself, my past, my way of thinking and feeling. I learned about some cool processes/tools to help me and others in the future (e.g. Anchoring, swish, etc.).

I have become aware of some limiting beliefs and have taken steps to clear them. I now also know how I can use some NLP tools in client services.

I can be very stubborn, but learning about the ‘134 bits per second’ info will be a good reminder that we’re all seeing the same thing differently. This will help me avoid conflict, disappointment, and heartache.

One of the presuppositions of NLP is: 'We have everything we need within us' – soo powerful. I can look outside for tools, prompts, and support…but I should look inside myself for what I need.

I see myself reviewing the manuals regularly, especially the sections on the presuppositions of NLP, the Milton model, reframing.

I initially joined this course to work on myself but came away with some ideas for the next phase of my career.

I also appreciate Sonya’s offer of monthly catch ups and weekly coaching calls. They’re great ways to follow through on the NLP course. I appreciate it very much.

Thank you Sonya, you’ve been so kind and generous and wonderful. Thank you for making the NLP training via Zoom sessions work for me! I am so grateful.

I was gifted a session from Sonya and I was amazed by the experience she provided through “Parts Integration” (NLP). So often we are ‘in conflict’ with ourselves, be that indecision, or feeling torn or worn out by the feeling of being "split"… I was in this very position and Sonya suggested this style of session. I have worked with several coaches and loved the way Sonya worked with what was “in the room” and made a recommendation based on what felt right.

The experience was hard to describe and far more than I expected. A few words come to mind: helpful, insightful, educational, resolved, emotional, spiritual and healing.

I am someone who continually works on myself where possible and I learned so much about myself from this experiential process. This time with Sonya was a gift and in saying that, Sonya is very gifted!

Thank you Sonya for such a wonderful experience and helping me resolve this challenge within myself. Truly grateful and I am so happy to recommend you.

I feel more aware, more awake and that I have received great insights.
The training was very well structured, and Sonya’s delivery techniques are clearly very well thought and planned out.
Sonya was clear, had an answer to all my questions, and very supportive when I doubted my capability to learn so much new info (in perspective of my conscious mind). Thank you. I am so many steps closer to complete healing, which will only make me a better leader.

As a cynic, and as such am always wary when asked to take a leap. I have also done a number of similar personal and professional development programs (Traction, Gallop, Landmark) and NLP was the best by far. It gets to the point and one quickly understands that these techniques DO work. I now have a much greater appreciation for how different everyone’s interpretation of the world is. Sonya’s instruction was a pleasure and the seven days of the program have flown by. I’m excited to get back to life and practice these skills.

Sonya really is an amazing trainer and teacher as well as an expert in her field of NLP and Matrix therapies. She explained all the processes and tasks in very simple yet effective ways and made it easy for the students to know exactly what each process was and how to use them to create healing.

I recommend that anyone who is interested in learning NLP or who wants to have the best life through healing the past should contact Sonya.

NLP is great and fun to learn, Sonya, you have made it so much easier with your warm personality and easy to approach as I have journeyed along with others on this path. It has been an absolute privilege to go on this wonderful journey with you Sonya and the class. I was very comfortable asking any questions, having a laugh etc. Most of all I had a breakthrough in my personal life, and I am very grateful for the experience.

Training with Sonya is not just about learning NLP techniques and ideas, she brings her amazing energy, experience and empathy to the training as well. I really enjoyed my seven days and was convinced after day 1 that I needed to do more training. I gained far more than I thought possible, not just learning techniques but healing and insights into myself. Thank you Sonya.

Sonya, you’re awesome. You’re the best part of NLP experience. You strike a lovely balance between knowledge, lived experience and client case studies not anyone in particular but I will go out and share my experience. I might have some people for hypnosis training.

If you are ready to step into your power and reach your full potential then NLP is for you.

Sonya is an incredible presenter and advocate of living your best life using NLP and Matrix Therapies. If you feel unsettled in your life, it is because you were meant for something more. Doing this course is an incredible vehicle for that.

I completed my NLP and Matrix Therapies training with Sonya in March 2022. The program is packed full of opportunities to have breakthroughs and develop a deeper understanding of human behaviour including your own. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to develop themselves personally or professionally.

I highly recommend Centre for Life Therapies and found working with Sonya a real pleasure. I gained valuable skills and thorough understanding of my shortfalls and past beliefs handed down to me &
I personally found Sonya to be compassionate, understanding and a wonderful coach. I now know which areas of my life need more attention, what to focus on and what to let go of. The skills I have gained through doing a course with CfLT will no doubt put me on the right path to a more centered and focused lifestyle where instead of "pleasing others", I please ME first! There you go, groundbreaking! Love & Light Sonya

Thank you Sonya for presenting your Corporate Workshop to our team at Atelier Wealth. Your insights and energy had a deep impact on myself and our team - helping us work through blockages on a personal and business front. Would highly recommend any business - small, medium or large engage you for a workshop.

You challenged us and we are grateful for your profound impact. Thank you!

I really enjoyed Sonya's focus workshop. It gave me a lot of motivation and the tools I needed to achieve my goals. I really recommend doing the webinars that are available after the workshop as well. It is great for keeping yourself accountable.

I attended one of Sonya's NLP training courses earlier this month. I've learnt so much from Sonya's training. NLP is a way of life that touches all parts of our world and to learn about it and practice it in the future is going to enhance my business and personal life beyond recognition. Sonya is a great presenter, she clearly knows her stuff and she knows how to communicate that knowledge. Sonya made everything clear and understandable, demonstrating the practical uses of all techniques. I highly recommend everyone to attend Sonya's training courses.
