Rapid Interpersonal Neural Integration packages the essential elements from the works of Milton Erickson, Fritz Perls, Virginia Satir, Jeffrey Zeig, and Ernest Rossi to facilitate lasting change through rapid neural integration.

The therapist then helps the client transform the flow of energy and information away from blockages and distortions by addressing the fear(s) underlying and feeding the mindsets and blind-spots.
