Who is HeadGym?
Qualified NLP Master Practitioner
HeadGym was set up in 2011 by Neil Ordish.
Neil is a qualified NLP Master Practitioner and Hypnotherapist. He also hold a level 4 PTTLS certificate and has up to date Safeguarding, Mentoring and Self Harm Awareness training as well as Adult Mental Health and Youth Mental Health First Aid.
Neil has management experience both in the UK and Asia and understands how stressful a job can be.
Why was HeadGym set up?
Eight years ago Neil noticed that people with mental health issues and mental health illness in his local area had limited support, so after looking into it he saw a huge gap in services and support for people.
His findings after speaking to individuals and professionals were:
- GP’s could offer anti-depressants and a promise that they would refer you to a professional
- Professionals have waiting lists of up to 18 months
- Immediate emergency assistance for people with mental health illness was time limited and there is no support afterwards.
Neil decided to make a change, however small it was going to be, Neil wanted to offer support so he set up HeadGym, with a view improving lives. He then became involved with MHAG (Mental Health Action Group), a local group who share ideas on how to make positive changes.
Neil’s philosophy is based upon a goals formula and a other techniques, which ensure that each person is treated individually and that the individual needs are met. Neil believes that to create long term change you have to look at a long term approach, there is no quick fix if you want to create a lasting change.
So far…
Neil has worked with a number of charities, GP’s, UNISON, Early Help, local governments, NHS, Social services companies and private clients and the results have been amazing! HeadGym has grown into the ideal service for individuals and companies through the creation of the ‘Wellbeing at Work’ package; ‘Improve employees well being and as a result improve productivity’, everyone’s a winner!
Progress
Neil supported people in confidence building groups, men only groups, one to one sessions, couples, employees, young people and more. HeadGym clients have made great progress.
Due to the fact that many clients lead busy lives, Neil had to be flexible and introduced a Skype service, which has proven to be very successful.
Coach Training
In March 2022 Neil completed delivery of his first CPD accredited training for coaches, due to the wonderful feedback and the great outcomes for those trained this will now be running on a regular basis.

Cambodia
Neil has been visiting Cambodia for the last 8 years delivering well-being group workshops which were in high demand and very successful. Recognising a real need for mental health support in Cambodia Neil is due to start mental health support for a school in the capital city Phnom Penh.
