It is widely understood that human beings have a set of physical and emotional needs, such as the need for security in our jobs and relationships, a sense of our own control and autonomy, and the need for meaning and purpose in life.

There are several other needs also, and when they are met in balance we are happy and healthy. It is when one or more of these needs are not being met that difficulties can arise, such as anxiety or depression etc.

I work to help you understand these needs and to build on those that are being met well, but crucially to look at those that are not being met so well, and most importantly, why?
It may be due to unhelpful conditioning from others, or through difficult or even traumatic experiences that you haven’t moved forward yet, and we will work to correct that.

I work from THE HUMAN GIVENS APPROACH, which is a set of organising ideas that provides a holistic, scientific framework for understanding the way that individuals and society work. This framework encompasses the latest scientific understandings from neurobiology and psychology, as well as ancient wisdom and original new insights, which allows a completely individual, tailored approach to your specific needs, and often provides swift and lasting results to even the most complex lives.

I specialise in: Anger Management, Anxiety, Lifting Depression, Panic Attacks, Phobias, Trauma, Addictive Behaviour, Compulsive Disorders, Stress, Improving Relationships, Sports Psychology and Exam Performance.
