Your Nearest Human Givens Therapist

Hello, I’m Mike. Since 1990, I have worked as a music teacher and freelance musician.

Until recently I was the CEO of a specialist mental health charity, which I set up and managed for over ten years, working with clients who suffer from trauma, anxiety, depression and problems mana

With 26 years of experience working with the public and qualifying as a human givens therapist in 2019.

My approach is compassionate, non-judgmental and fully supportive.

Online sessions available (therefore no limit on geographical distance)

I have enjoyed working in the field of social care for over 30 years. I have gained experience working in the NHS, Community Mental Health Teams, GP surgeries, HMP Prison service, the probation service, Supported Housing, the charity sector, and in schools and Pupil Referral Units.

I am passionate about working with you to help you to regain control and understanding over your physical and mental wellbeing. 

I originally trained in biological science before becoming a medical doctor in 1990.

If you would benefit from help with step-by-step solutions and/ or require release from the trap of 'over-thinking', I would love to help.

My counselling training and experience has ingrained my commitment to empower you to both draw and build upon your inner resources - which may prove to be greater than you thought - to get a life that works without investing in long-term and costly therapy. 

Cath has established her therapy practice in the centre of Edinburgh.
