About The Lefkoe Institute

The Lefkoe Institute is committed to helping individuals dramatically improve performance in all areas of their lives whether in sports, parenting or general self-improvement.

Chicken Soup For The Soul Author Jack Canfield has worked with us and said "Morty's got a technique that works like magic." You can hear Jack's full statement by clicking here.

Many therapists have recognized TLM as a powerful tool for accelerating change in their clients and use it in their practices regularly. Click here to see comments from a number of psychotherapists who use TLM.

Not only have clients and therapists found TLM effective but so have independent researchers in two different studies. The most recent of which was published by the journal Clinical Psychology and Psychotherapy in June 2007.

In this latest study people who had a fear of public speaking were treated with TLM and in less than four hours their fear was eliminated.

Because our work is so effective and we believe you should not have to pay for services that are of no benefit to you, we offer a money-back guarantee to our clients.

Morty Lefkoe

Morty Lefkoe is president and founder of The Lefkoe Institute. He is the creator of a series of psychological processes (The Lefkoe Method) that result in profound personal and organizational change, quickly and permanently.

He has written a book about the Lefkoe Belief Process (LBP), Re-create Your Life: Transforming Yourself and Your World (Andrews McMeel, 1997; trade paper version, DMI Publishing, 2003). The book explains how the LBP works, how it is significantly different from most forms of psychotherapy, its spiritual implications, and how its principles can be applied to parenting, health, business, and social change. It also includes several case histories involving clients who have successfully dealt with dysfunctional patterns. Morty has also written an essay that details research on the mind-body connection in sports and his work with athletes. You can get a pdf of the article by clicking here.

Morty has written over 100 articles and columns for many publications, including the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. He has appeared on over 100 radio and TV shows, including Today, Leeza, ABC World News Today, and Fox Cable News. His work has been written about extensively in the New York Times and a number of other publications.

A member of the American Counseling Association, Morty has written articles describing the Lefkoe Method for The California Therapist (Sept-Oct 2001, Vol. 13, Issue 5), The Group Therapist Perspective (Oct-Nov. 2001), and the California Psychologist (December, 2001).

He has spoken before such groups as the American Management Association, Vistage (formerly TEC), American Psychotherapy Association, American College of Counselors, American Association of Integrative medicine, National Wellness Coalition, Managed Health Care Congress (NE), Association for Fitness in Business, and American Psychological Association-National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health.

Shelly Lefkoe

Shelly is co-founder of the Possibilities of Parenting Center in Fairfax, CA. POPC is a division of The Lefkoe Institute, where she is a Vice President.

It offers several standard and custom-tailored workshops for parents and teachers. She co-designs and leads most of the workshops. The mission of POPC is twofold:

• To have parents discover that self-esteem (the experience of being able and worthy) and a positive attitude toward life are the key to their children’s happiness and success.

• To empower parents to assist their children in the creation of a positive self-esteem and view of life.

She conducts private sessions for parents, teachers, and others using the Lefkoe Belief Process. This revolutionary process for change has enabled over 1,000 people to stop undesirable emotional and behavioral patterns, including criminal and violent behavior.

The LBP also has been used with over 12,000 employees in over thirty companies to make fundamental changes in the corporate culture and to get employees excited about assuming more responsibility for the success of the company.

Shelly has been keynote speaker and delivered workshops to such groups as:

• Parents of Multiples Convention

• National Multiple Schlerosis Society

• United Methodist Church in Norwalk

• Long Lots PTA

• Fairfield County Gymnastics Teachers
