SOMType
See the silent mismatch sooner.
A framework for classifying response style and approach fit, connected to James Winner’s published research on hypnotic responsiveness and built from more than two decades of clinical observation.
Neurosonance
The research and education home for Jim Winner’s work in language, perception, response, hypnosis, SOMType, and human pattern recognition.
It exists for one question: what changes when we understand how a person actually receives pressure, language, pacing, and direction?
Neurosonance connects Jim’s work in clinical hypnosis, NLP training, behavioral observation, SOMType, and practitioner education. It is a developing home for profile research, practitioner education, and products that connect language, perception, and response.
For the research foundation, see James Winner’s published article on hypnotic responsiveness and the SOMType framework.
The practical purpose is not to replace judgment. It is to sharpen it. A practitioner still has to listen. A client still has to be treated as a person. But the work gets better when the practitioner has a cleaner read on how language lands, where resistance forms, and which doorway is easier to open first.
Systems & tools
The Neurosonance workshop
NLPeak
NLP trained like a language, not memorized like a textbook.
Short daily drills, pattern recognition, and spaced repetition, the way an app teaches you a language. Ten minutes a day.
Resonance for Law
SOMType, built into how a firm practices.
Tools that let firms apply SOMType across jury work, witness prep, and negotiation, plus a certification track in NLP for Law.
What’s My SOMType
A named type and a written profile, in about five minutes.
The consumer twin of SOMType. A free read names your patterns in plain language; deeper reads cover romance, money, career, and more.
Work with Jim directly
ChangeWorker
More than two decades of clinical hypnotherapy and change work, one to one.
Sessions are shaped around how you specifically respond. Not a course or an app. Jim, in session with you, working on the patterns you want to change. Sessions are by application.
Neurosonance and its tools support practitioner judgment and self-knowledge. They are educational and informational, not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Individual responses vary.
