Anxiety

Following many years working in the social care sector with vulnerable adults, in which I increasingly found the Human Givens approach extremely beneficial, I have now moved into private practice.

Patrick grew up in the East Anglian countryside and has always loved being close to nature.

“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

I am a dedicated, open and energetic professional. I provide a safe environment, that allows my clients the space to work in a focused manner and challenged to meet their goals.

Expert in anxiety (inc. depression, trauma and grief).  
Psychotherapist with 20+ years experience (news media, military and emergency services).
Psych MA (Hons).

Whilst my Human Givens journey began in 2009, my work in the field began 20 years prior. I have since taught Human Givens on a counselling skills diploma and worked as a therapist with adults, staff within organisations, teachers, parents, young people and children overseas as well as in the UK (particularly Sri Lanka). In private practice my strengths lie in flexibility and creativity - tailor-making my approach to each client. I use an eclectic approach within the Human Givens framework, knowing exactly why each varied and different technique can be effective in accordance with current neuroscience.
