NLP
NLP, or Neuro-Linguistic Programming, is concerned with modelling "what works" in peoples lives and transferring those models to other people. Since NLP was developed many models have been discovered in fields as diverse as stock trading, meditation and motivation. For example certain ways of goal setting are more effective than others. What works well for one person can generally be transferred to another person.
NLP has also been called "the study of subjective experience", that is to say how it seems to you. People using NLP techniques do not seek to find statistical norms, but rather to capture the peak of the individuals performance. In NLP terms thought is composed of the internal application of the five senses. If you think of someone, you may see a picture of them in your "minds eye", you may hear their voice, or even sense their smell.

NLP certainly has a relationship to some forms of Hypnosis and Milton Erickson, a leading Hypnotist, was one of the original models during the original formation of NLP. Others modelled include Fritz Perls and Virginia Satir, both exceptional therapists.
