The Life Doctor
My name is Paul Sheppard and I am the founder of The Life Doctor Therapy Practice in Hove.
Based in Fourth Avenue in Hove, The Life Doctor is a pro-active Hypnotherapy, Mind and Life Coach, NLP, EFT, IEMT and Counselling therapy practice.
I have worked for 20 years exploring various healing techniques and trained throughout the years in various therapies to see which ones are the most effective when working with a clients mind. I trained as a hypnotherapist in Brighton 7 years go and have added other therapies such as NLP (Neuro-Linguistic-Programming) which is changes the way your brain processes the world around you. EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) which I was highly secptical about until I saw the results. IEMT (Intergral Eye Movement Therapy) which is brilliant at changing negative brain patterns and feelings. MET (Metaphoric Energy Transformation) is my own creation which works with how your mind and body subconsciously communicates the problem and solutions to the issue. Various forms of Counselling and some of the most amazing life changing perspectives which clients have been shocked to learn. I also work online worldwide which is also very nice so if you live in another city or country you can still get help by working with me.
My therapy is unusual due to the therapy techniques, counselling and perspectives I share with clients. It is more pro-active than normal therapy as my intention is to quickly, thoroughly and successfuly fascilitate change, not to keep you coming to sessions. I really am busy enough without having to drag out therapy for clients. If you are though looking for a placid, smiling and nodding therapist who just hands you the bill after an hour of you rambling please don't contact me as it's a waste of your money and would bore me rigid. If you fancy exploring with me to help you get some radical change then please contact me for a chat.
I know coming to see a therapist like myself at my office in Hove can be a bit nerve wracking, you can even bring someone with you if that helps or do the consultation via Skype. I have to admire the people who do take the plunge and book to come have a chat and see what happens from there.
If you are experiencing anxiety. stress, panic, confidence or depression issues here in Brighton & Hove then please contact me to come and experience my anxiety management program which works to help transform the way you feel to a calmer, more focused and confident you.
I abide by a strict code of ethics which can be found on the General Hypnotherapy Register.
I am also listed on the NHS Directory of Complementary and Alternative Practitioners.
I look forward to working with you!
Paul Sheppard.

E.Power - Brighton
Using a range of techniques, Paul helped me to see past my confusion and anxieties and I have become a far calmer, more confident person! Invaluable experience, thanks!
Kirsty - Brighton
I was concerned at first if hypnosis would work on me for my anxiety and if I could actually be hypnotised. My body felt so relaxed for the first time in ages and Paul showed me under hypnosis how much I actually can control my body with a simple thought. I feel much calmer and confident about life, thanks to his techniques and I recommend Paul to everyone I know as they are definitely in good hands!
