Welcome to this site which I hope will answer some of your questions about depression and the Lightning Process (LP). Over the years I have worked with many people with depression on their path to happiness I know how complicated finding solutions and answers can be. As you browse the site I am sure there will be some questions that you need answering by talking to a real person. Please use the 'Find A Practitioner' page to find your local practitioner who is there to support you as you find more about the LP and will be very happy to answer any questions you may have.

A huge part of the spiral of depression is the sense of powerlessness and hopelessness that make recovery seem a distant dream. However 80%* of people reported that they no longer had the issues they came with by day three of the Lightning Process course. The Lightning Process helps by teaching a set of tools which have enabled people to change their mood, restore better hormonal and neurotransmitter function and help people rediscover how to influence life promoting behaviours.

Please visit our 'How does it work?' page to find out more.

*feedback from a snapshot feedback survey of 440 people after day three of the LP course.

Our Snapshot Feedback Survey has been designed as a tool to collect data from clients as to whether they feel they have gained any benefit from attending the Lightning Process course.  The results are therefore subjective.  Lightning Process practitioners are not medically trained and are therefore relying on client information about their diagnoses, symptoms and issues that they bring to the course.

The snapshot feedback survey is not a standardised, validated outcome measure; it is designed purely to inform us as to whether a client felt they gained benefit from attending the LP course.  We are currently undertaking a benchmarking exercise using standardised, validated outcome measures in collaboration with an independent research team in order to make any benchmarking statistics more robust.

Imogen's feedback

"I am 25 years old and did the Lightning Process a year ago. I had suffered from severe depression, which eventually led to a complete breakdown at university and subsequently a few months spent in the Priory Hospital. Despite the Priory being a ‘safe haven’ it did not focus on a way of overcoming my ‘problems’ and my depression continued, if anything got worse" Read Imogen's full story here

Martin's Feedback

"Being a non-ME/CFS patient, I felt at first a little doubtful about whether the Lightning Process would be as effective for me as it apparently has been for those with that condition, including a friend of mine, who first alerted me to the Process and its remarkable results."

Due to the nature of the Lightning Process training we cannot guarantee results as everyone is different, however we have received a considerable amount of positive feedback from clients with the varied symptoms that many people with depression experience.
