My name is Karla Jordan, founding director of NLP Parent Coaches and mother of two children. I first entered the profession in 1996 after initially qualifying as an NLP Practitioner (Neuro Linguistic Programming). As well as many qualifications, it would be fair to say that I have vast amounts of life experience. Growing up in a dysfunctional family and dealing with many struggles including; relationships, divorce, single parenting, life has not been easy! However I am through the other side and able to face life’s challenges and embrace a fuller and happier life I try to use my experience, strength and hope to help others in the role of parenting.

My passion for my family and working to help others achieve their utmost were strong motivators in starting my business and the NLP and coaching training provided a strong base to build upon.  Being a parent can be the most rewarding and at the same time the most challenging job you will ever do!! “Coaching parents and helping them to take a fresh look at their family life, showing them the importance of their relationships is pivotal in their development as a parent!”

The consultancy’s portfolio has now expanded to offer parent coaching in work/life balance which can be taken into business to support working parents as a group or on a one to one.  It is not unusual for work to impinge on family time and visa versa even if it is just in your head!  We are all guilty of worrying unnecessarily about leaving the children with childcare, what if they are sick or at home you may be worrying about preparing for the meeting the next day instead of concentrating on your time with the family.  It’s about drawing up boundaries and letting go of the guilt factor!  I can help you to look at how you can separate the two and be the best you can be in both areas of your life. Feeling guilty can use up a lot of energy and increase stress levels, the aim is to make this a thing of the past! 

The philosophy of NLP parent Coaches naturally reflects my personal credo; “Visualise Aspire Strive Achieve” .My goal is simple: to guide parents and companies employing working parents to visualise their true potential, aspire to those goals and strive to implement the most appropriate plans to achieve their objectives as parents.”   I believe everyone can overcome any obstacles with the right focus and assistance take control of their lives.
