Deep Victory

Life Coaching

Helping people reach their goals, the other side of self-doubt, confusion, & anxiety.

Choose the statement which best applies to you:
  1. I know I can do more; then, why don’t I actually do it?
  2. I’m forever stuck in the planning phase.
  3. Every good idea is held back with a “yes, but I…”
  4. Everyday things now seem harder; I feel worn out before I even begin.
  5. Too often that “just one more episode” or “just finish this next level” turns into hours of procrastination.
  6. Could it be… that I’m a failure?

Do these sound unsettlingly familiar?

Actually, all these statements are related — they’re all things Deep Victory clients often have been saying to themselves (whether they realise it or not.)

They are also the sort of self-statements that clients free themselves of, through their work with Deep Victory.

  • failure to complete goals
  • poor focus and concentration,
  • inconsistent motivation
  • racing thoughts when faced with decision,
  • low energy,
  • information overload,
  • low frustration tolerance, especially for yourself,
—  these are all in the cluster of symptoms relating to a deep-seated disconnect between what you want and what you expect

Where we get stuck

Are YOU unwittingly your own worst enemy?

If you spend more energy wrestling with mindset and motivation, than actually getting the job done, you are sabotaging your own success.

Simply trying harder, or try-and-try-again, won’t get you any further. It will only wear you out more.

Occasional set-backs are just a part of life.
But persistent failure is not.

Whether the goal is
 to launch a new international product, or
 simply just to get the laundry done today,

— too many painful experiences
of failing to getting it done indicates
an entrenched problem in our psychology.

What if there were a way to systematically unravel the problem, and reveal it for what it is?

What if, armed with this understanding of internal processes, the resistance could just melt away?

How would life be different, if the next thing you decide to do, you did with complete certainty, for joy of the task itself, unstoppably you?

The way forward

That feeling you have of constant worry, of persistent self-doubt — that was not always there. It was something you learnt and, hence, can un-learn!

Don’t let a small aspect of your past define who you are today

Positive life change is always possible.

If that change still isn’t happening, help can still be found in professional counsel.

Deep Victory is a life coaching service helping people to tame their frantic, unhelpful thoughts, thereby freeing themselves to pursue what they really want in life.

Through the process clients gain self mastery and traction toward actually achieving their goals.

Coaching follows scientifically-tested models of human behaviour, and is delivered in a warm and meaningful personalised guidance session.

The service is aimed at capable, creative and intelligent people who nonetheless still struggle with their own internal set-backs, or who feel there’s nothing to gain from traditional psychological or counselling therapy.

Techniques and Methodology

The personalised care and training you get from Deep Victory brings together the best aspects of a personal trainer and a psychology-based counsellor.

Traditional “talk therapy” is brought to life with creative expression and active involvement in your own re-invention.

The techniques used integrate principles and process from a wide-range of disciplines which complement each other in fostering personal growth.
Three major approaches are shown here.

Why Deep Victory?

Deep Victory is the culmination of almost 20 years of educating children and adults, results from a motivational science research group, and experience of having helped hundreds of patients in clinical psychology work across 3 different continents.

I’m Anton deVries, principal coach at Deep Victory.

In private practice I watched my exploited colleagues burn out, I saw personal records leaked to the public, and I saw many, many people unnecessarily suffering due to nothing more than bureaucracy.

I determined to find a more sustainable and humanistic way to offer my expertise to those needing it.

So, what you won’t get from Deep Victory:

  • a burnt-out therapist telling you to avoid burn-out
  • referrals and wait-lists with months of nothing happening
  • patient data passed between health insurance and your employer or H.R.
  • ruthless batteries of questions prying into all aspects of your personal life
  • generic treatment plans taking many months, even years, to get results (or not even get any results)
  • months of extra suffering just waiting for bureaucracy to catch up
 

What you do get, with every Deep Victory session:

  • treated like the real, unique person that you are
  • tools that work in the real world, you can use on a daily basis
  • dedicated coaching plans, focusing on your exact strengths and needs
  • lifelong benefits of results
  • exceptional value for money
  • Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)

DBT grew out of a shortfall in CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) which didn’t seem to be effective for certain people seeking therapy.

I’ve trained and worked at centres focusing on DBT and client-centred therapies. The last 4 years I‘ve been leading groups and individuals through mindfulness practice.

  • Grit, positive affirmations, discipline, life passion, “just do it”, pomodoro, early morning routine, fake it ’till you make it, S.M.A.R.T. goals, be yourself…

It may seem like every person you meet, every blog you read, has their own idea of how to get motivated and finish goals. But opinion does not equal science.

Have you ever been excited to improve yourself after reading a self-help book, watching a youtube clip, or attending a motivational seminar? Did you return to the exact same place you were before, feeling like you’ve failed?

Chances are you were fed a quick hit of “energetic pathos” (hype) followed by basic tips on what once worked for them. What they never tell you, because even motivation gurus don’t realise, is that not all people and not all goals respond to the same techniques equally.

I was fortunate to study state-of-the-art motivational theory in Dr. Oettingen’s research group, drawing from the international pool of data to deliver my Masters thesis in motivation technique, at the University of Hamburg.

Hypnosis fades in and out of scientific respectability each century. Sigmund Freud was apparently terrible at it, and so hypnosis is all but ignored by psychology today, left for stage show and street performers to enjoy.

But just like meditation—hypnotism’s freestyle sister —its therapeutic relevance is gradually being rediscovered and studied once more.

Today, hypnosis is as useful in healing as it was 300 years ago. Or 3000 years ago. The artifice of communicating with the subconscious hasn’t changed, though our understanding of the relevant components has improved.

I have trained with Australian Conversational Hypnosis and the Mike Mandel Hypnosis Academy, and use hypnotherapy techniques with clients requesting this.
