Where you are does not matter

The same session, wherever you live

Rob sees people in person in Forster on the NSW Mid North Coast. Most of his clients are not there. They are in Sydney, Newcastle, the Central Coast, Brisbane and Melbourne, and they do the session from home by video.

There is no travel, no waiting room and no parking. You need a quiet room, a laptop or phone, and about an hour. The session itself runs the same way it does in the Forster rooms.

What to expect

How it works

  1. Book the free call

    Fifteen minutes by phone or video. You tell Rob a little about what is going on, and he tells you honestly whether it is something he can help with. Start with the client intake form or email us.

  2. Talk it through

    The first part of a session is a conversation about what is happening and what you want to be different. Nothing is forced, and you do not have to go back over the past in detail.

  3. The session itself

    Rob takes you through Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming while you sit back comfortably at home. It works within a highly focused state of attention created by Clinical Hypnosis. You remain aware and in control throughout, able to hear what is being said and respond if you choose, and you can stop at any point.

  4. Between sessions

    Some people use the MindShift app between sessions, so there is something to listen to at home. It is optional and separate from the sessions. Do not listen to the audio while driving or operating machinery.

Being straight about it

This will not suit everyone

Here is who tends to get on well with it, and who should look elsewhere first.

It tends to suit you if

  • A pattern keeps running even though you know what it is
  • You have tried to think your way out of it and it has not held
  • You want to work with a real person, live, rather than only a recording
  • You want to focus on what happens next rather than go back over everything

It probably does not suit you if

  • You need a diagnosis, a prescription or a mental health care plan
  • You are after something covered by Medicare
  • You want a guaranteed result from one session
  • You are in crisis and need help today

Rob is not a medical practitioner or a registered psychologist, and his sessions do not replace your GP, psychologist or psychiatrist. If you are on medication, keep taking it as prescribed and talk to your doctor before changing anything. If things are bad right now, call 000 in an emergency, or Lifeline on 13 11 14, free and open all night. Your GP can also arrange a Mental Health Treatment Plan with a psychologist.

Who you will be seeing

Rob Edmonds

Rob Edmonds, creator of Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming

Rob Edmonds

Diploma of Clinical Hypnosis and Strategic Psychotherapy

Rob was nineteen and could not speak in front of a room. Not nervous, genuinely unable, and it was costing him exams. He tried something he had run out of reasons not to try, and a few sessions sorted it. That quietly shaped everything after it.

He trained at the Institute of Applied Psychology in Sydney and went on to create Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming, part of the MindShift Method. He creates every session in the MindShift app himself, and works one to one with people by video, wherever they are.

Not ready for a session?

The MindShift app is the same Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming as guided audio, 15 to 20 minutes a day, created by Rob. It is a separate service from his one-to-one sessions, and some people start there.

Online sessions with Rob: FAQs

Do online sessions with Rob work as well as in person?

An online session with Rob runs the same way as one in person. He talks you through it, you sit back somewhere comfortable, and you remain aware and in control throughout. Plenty of his regular clients have never been to Forster. What matters more is a quiet room and a connection that holds for an hour.

I am in Sydney, Newcastle, Brisbane or Melbourne. Can I see Rob?

Yes. Most of Rob’s one-to-one clients are outside the Mid North Coast and work with him by video. If you are near Forster and would rather come in, there is a separate page for in-person sessions.

What happens on the free 15 minute call?

On the free 15 minute call you tell Rob what is going on, ask whatever you want to ask, and he tells you whether it is something he can help with. There is no obligation and nothing to pay. If it is not a fit, he will say so.

How many sessions with Rob will I need?

The number of sessions depends on what you are working on and how it goes, and there is no fixed timeframe. Some people come for one or two, some work through the six-session package. Rob will give you his honest view after the first session, and you are never locked in.

Do I need a referral, and is it covered by Medicare?

No referral is needed to see Rob. His sessions are not covered by Medicare, because he is not a registered health practitioner. Most private health funds do not cover them either, so check with your fund if you are unsure.

Is a one-to-one session the same as the MindShift app?

Both use Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming, the MindShift Method, but they are separate services. A one-to-one session is live with Rob and shaped around what is going on for you. The MindShift app is guided audio you listen to at home. Some people use both, and plenty use only one.

Is Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming hypnosis?

Cognitive Pattern Reprogramming draws on Clinical Hypnosis, Strategic Psychotherapy and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Clinical Hypnosis is used to create a highly focused state of attention. Within that state, Strategic Psychotherapy identifies and works with unhelpful patterns and is designed to help develop more useful ways of thinking, responding and behaving. NLP techniques may be used throughout to interrupt unhelpful patterns and anchor more useful responses. You remain aware and in control throughout, able to hear what is being said and respond if you choose, and it is designed to sit alongside anything else you already use.

Can Rob see my teenager online?

Yes, Rob sees young people aged 12 to 17 one to one, and a parent or carer is present for the whole session, every time. If your child is already seeing a paediatrician, psychologist or occupational therapist, the sessions are designed to sit alongside that care.

Will I be asleep or out of control during a session with Rob?

No. During a session with Rob you stay aware of where you are and what is being said, and you can stop at any point.

Does a session with Rob replace my GP or psychologist?

No. Rob’s sessions are designed to work alongside your GP, psychologist or psychiatrist, not in place of them. If you are on medication, keep taking it as prescribed. In an emergency call 000, and Lifeline is on 13 11 14.
