Trevor Emdon	Trevor Emdon R.M.N., DipNLP, was fascinated from an early age with human happiness.   His family was struck by a series of personal tragedies which came to an end when Trevor was 13.  He began then to look for adult role models who were happy, content and fulfilled by life but to his astonishment he realised that most people were, in fact, quite the opposite.   This phenomenon struck him as extremely odd since what he saw were sad, angry and mostly disillusioned people.   By age twenty Trevor was knowledgeable on on subjects as diverse as Jung's autobiography, to Zen Buddhism, Taoism and Gestalt Therapy!  His purpose became to teach and show people how to be happy with life, and psychotherapy became his chosen tool.   He joined the British National Health Service in 1976 as a registered Psychiatric Nurse and has managed one of the most forward thinking psychiatric adolescent units in the world.   Trevor is educated in Family Therapy, Art and Drama Therapy, Brief Therapy and gained his diploma in NLP and Ericksonian Hypnotherapy.   Renowned as an excellent educator and workshop leader, and an expert writer on psychotherapy topics. He was published five times in the "Nursing Times."   Trevor continues to write and teach "personal growth" - these days mostly on the internet through his Life Coaching practice.   Let him help you through developing a positive mind-set and the ability to see yourself succeed!   His websites include: http://www.wizardofwisdom.com and http://master-success-secrets.com
