About me

have been a Human Givens therapist for over 10 years and have worked with English-speaking clients living and working in 18 countries.

I work with adults with a wide range of difficulties, including depression and anxiety, phobias, anger, pain management, panic attacks, stress and PTSD. Over the past 10 years, I have worked with about 250 UK veterans with PTSD and many others who have been traumatised.

Before becoming a full-time therapist, I set up and ran an award-winning mental health charity for 11 years. I have also worked in Higher Education and adult education in the UK and in France, as well as spells as a film maker and in IT.

My aim is always to help people as quickly as possible and to make a big difference to their lives. In many cases, a brief course of Human Givens therapy can be a life-changing experience.

Testimonials

I can’t thank you enough for your help. Back on course and prepared for anything!

(P M, construction industry manager, after being off work for weeks following a nervous breakdown)

I would like to thank you for all the help you have given me. You have truly changed things for me and I have now got a great new job. I can’t thank you enough

(L K, professional sports coach, who suffered from depression)

I quickly found his approach hugely beneficial

(D O, charity manager, six months after a nervous breakdown)

He remembers the work you did with him as something special - it was really effective in reducing the PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and the impact of the trauma

Mother of young man, 4 years after treatment for child abuse trauma)

Andrew used visualisation as a way of helping me to change deeply held feelings, and amazingly to stop me feeling the need to keep going over traumatic memories. I found that the changes continued even after my sessions stopped, and I would have no hesitation about recommending him to others

(S F, seven years into her ‘new’ relationship which had a wobbly start)

Thank you for the session today – my brain is processing lots of connections – thank you for the first time I feel as though I have been heard – an amazing feeling

(J N who no longer has a weight problem and has gone on to become a Human Givens therapist)

‘The Rewind (a therapeutic technique used for dealing with traumas) has worked a treat and have never felt better’

(K L after a session working on a childhood trauma)

‘Thank you so much for your help. Getting over PTSD has been a wonderful reaffirming experience that has allowed me to start working on other aspects of life’

(A I, who is getting on with his life which was on hold for too many years)

I have just been to the dentist. I have had my filling. I didn’t cry. I didn’t shake. I didn’t panic. I was cool as a cucumber. Can’t thank you enough’

(R C, no longer scared of the dentist and all things dental, much to her amazement).

Thanks always enjoyed working through things with you

(RC, veteran)

Andrew is very good and I feel I've moved on every week
