Alfred Astor

Change is not only possible, it is inevitable. Let’s work together to guide your life through the positive changes you would like to see.

As we say in the Human Givens approach, sometimes what we need is to borrow another’s mind, temporarily, to find our way again.

My name is Alfred Astor – BSc, MHGI – and I am a member of the Human Givens institute and a practicing Human Givens therapist.

We all are working to meet our emotional needs in our daily lives. However, there are times, for everyone, when we are not getting the emotional nutrition that we need.

At these times, part of the problem is figuring out what the obstacles are and how you might overcome them.

Together we can work out what’s in your way, and we’ll use a combination of your qualities, abilities, and resources and my tools and training to overcome this difficulty and move in the direction you would like to go.

The Human Givens approach is practical, holistic, and evidence-based. It aims to provide solution-focused support in the minimum possible number of sessions.

I have an enhanced DBS check and I am under regular supervision of a Human Givens supervisor.

My areas of concentration are anxiety, depression, phobia, trauma, relationships, addiction, stress, anger, sleep, confidence, self-esteem, and behaviour change, with a particular interest in helping people to overcome feelings of inadequacy.
