NLPAA Event Understanding the RTM Protocol with Robin Hampton - August 2025
This session will provide a unique opportunity to learn about the history, evolution, and profound effectiveness of the Reconsolidation of Traumatic Memories (RTM) Protocol—an innovative, evidence-based intervention grounded in the NLP technique Visual-Kinesthetic Dissociation process.
Originally developed as part of the NLP Research and Recognition Project, the RTM Protocol has rapidly emerged as one of the most effective non-traumatizing treatments for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Spearheaded by NLP Master Practitioner Dr. Frank Bourke, with key contributions from renowned NLP experts Tim Hallbom and the late Steve Andreas, RTM was first applied in clinical settings to support Vietnam veterans and first responders affected by the events of 9/11.
What began as a focused research project has evolved into an international movement to provide fast, reliable, and accessible trauma relief without requiring clients to relive the traumatic event. With peer-reviewed studies reporting success rates above 90% for eliminating PTSD symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, and intrusive thoughts, the RTM Protocol is gaining global attention and credibility, including within U.S. veteran hospitals, mental health institutions, and academic research circles.
