Depression

“Having struggled with depression and anxiety issues on and off for several years and having no luck with other methods, I was pleasantly surprised at how much difference was made in so few sessions. Rob provides practical advice in a relaxing, non-judgmental atmosphere and I would highly recommend giving his techniques a try. He has given me the tools I need to feel much more like my old self again.” – Alice

With 35 years of experience in a variety of settings, I am a fully-qualified and registered Human Givens therapist.

These are some of the things people may be thinking or saying when they decide to seek professional support: 

My aim is to teach clients calming techniques and develop positive coping mechanisms using tools that are based on current neuroscience. To help them change distress into decisions, plan a way forward whilst facing challenging circumstances, develop achievable goals and have a fulfilling life that works.

I am a former Senior Director of a large software company. I am now a professional coach and psychotherapist who loves helping people resolve problems that are holding them back. I work on the basis that taking one small positive step often leads to much greater change that can transform lives. I work with a range of issues from people having a mid life crisis to helping teenagers and students with exam anxiety.

I believe in people's capacity to change, grow and discover parts of themselves, that for many reasons they have not been able to see. I work with people to change the narrative of their circumstances, into the story they want to share with the world. I can aid you in whatever this journey looks like for you.

I run face-to-face sessions in Yorkshire including in Leeds, York, Hull and Bridlington. I run online sessions wherever you are in the world. 

I have a deep understanding about mental health and wellbeing, and experience of working with people in tnany different situations in their lives. Clients feed back that I am calm, warm and approachable - that they feel accepted and comfortable being themselves. The approach aims to help people to overcome problems that might at first feel overwhelming, breaking down complex issues into practical, manageable steps. My goal is to build hope, motivation and a clear focus to achieve the positive changes that matter to you. 

I have journeyed with individuals facing challenging circumstances for many years and am a qualified psychotherapist.

My practice is now entirely online, and therapy sessions can be booked UK-wide on Zoom, Skype, Facetime or the telephone.
