Human Givens Psychotherapist - MHGI
Call NowTherapists
I am an accredited Human Givens therapist, and work within this holistic and evidence-based framework to provide you with therapy tailored to your unique needs. I employ various therapeutic techniques including person-centred listening, cognitive, behavioural and solution-focused approaches, as well as guided imagery (Hypnotherapy) where appropriate.
Human Givens is a very practical form of therapy, based on the latest developments in neuroscience. We will work collaboratively to establish what you would like to be different and how best we can get you there. My aim will be to help you in as few sessions as possible, and to equip you with tools and skills for life. I can help with: depression; anxiety; stress; addictions; anger; sleep issues; grief; phobias; or any other issues that are having a negative impact on your well-being. I also work with trauma, and use a very effective, evidence-based and gentle technique - The Rewind Technique - to help people overcome all forms of trauma including those that have led to PTSD and CPTSD.
I hold an enhanced DBS, and have also worked with the Samaritans for the last five years, both as a listening volunteer, a mentor and within the prison outreach service. I have a special interest in the the role of the expectation effect in shaping our experiences, and in the mind-body connection. I believe that everyone has the capacity to overcome long-held patterns of thought and behaviour that may be making life more challenging.
