Live Life 2 The Max

Live Life 2 The Max Narelle Stratford Psychologist, NLP, Timeline Therapy, Clinical Hypnosis for Couple's Therapy, Traum I’m known for my laugh around the world.

It’s a funny thing, I can call someone up on the phone and start laughing as I say, “guess who this is,” and they will instantly know it’s me. There's a warm feeling that someone has had a rush of endorphins and feels good just because I am being me, so you can rely on that stability of presence in your sessions. I am always looking for what might block your success, what beliefs might sabotage yo

ur dreams, what associations might be damaging for you. Even culturally, there are those who are slaves to their culture and will find it difficult to advance if those ties are not lovingly severed while retaining the values that are right and good for you. I’ve met amazing people along the way who’ve had their share of issues. I’ve always been good at helping people to remove the obstacles in their thinking and encouraging him or her to see the dream, the big picture. And remember, it’s as important to check on how you are looking after yourself as it is to see if you are looking after your business. An axe left blunt does not cut down trees…

It is so valuable to let go of the old, to learn new ways of being, doing, having, and to know that you can call on these internal resources whenever you want. It’s about inspiring you to be the change you wish to see in the world and I look forward to your vision as much as you do. I have an innate curiosity that drives me and takes me into unexpected realms, like Quantum Physics, Spirituality and Past Life Regression. The Past Life and Spirituality side of things annoys the heck out of some psychologists and that’s okay with me that we disagree. Of course, I also have the requisite qualifications with Uni degrees, and others, which have helped me to understand how the human mind works, and how your soul can need as much and more help than your body. I’ve been privileged to have studied with Dr Rosita Rodriguez of Arche International, in Chicago, on Principles of Consciousness. It was after attending a 2 week program with Rosita and her team that I decided I wanted to become a psychologist. So, as a mature-age and recently-single Mum many years ago, within 2 months I found I’d been accepted at Uni and then spent the next 5 years studying. Along the way, I also trained in NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). In 2007, because of my business-coaching side I was fortunate to attend a Terri Cooper Networking event, meet the President and Editor of the then Australian Organisation for Quality and it’s journal and travelled extensively for the next few years, speaking in Australia, Iran, Nepal, New Zealand, India and South Korea, and attending conferences in the United States. How lucky can one person be? I feel so blessed and grateful to be able to share my knowledge through consultations, training and retreats and I trust I will see you soon!

As someone who experienced the full blast of Cyclone Alfred from 3.30pm Saturday 8th March 2025 until 11am Sunday 9th March 2025, as it moved over Macleay Island, I can assure you that it was at times a little harrowing.
I was able to maintain my calm state and keep worries to a low level of concern but many others would not have been able to do so. If you are a support worker who was called on during this event or similar with flooding or bushfires, and found that it was a challenge to look after yourself and your client, you might find a Support Worker's Workshop on Burnout Skills to be a helpful resource. https://www.livelife2themax.com.au/burnout-skills20250413/

Most therapists do not know how to protect themselves from the emotional distress of their clients. I have a wonderful process that I refer to as the Emotional Protection Technique which I will cover in the upcoming April workshop in Mackay. Check it out here:

It all depends on how you look at things, as to whether you are philosophical or p*ssed off and stressed. I wanted a worm farm and proceeded to set it up.
I did not anticipate the mess around the 3 tray tiers of my little farm... so I can choose to be upset about the mess, or focus on the wonderful worm tea and castings my worms are giving me. And that they are eating fruit and veggie scraps instead of adding to land waste. It all depends on how you interpret the message, doesn't it? This is called cognitive reframing when you refocus yourself on the positive aspects.
