The long-term answer to mental illness is not long-term therapy – the long-term answer to mental illness is a life that works
Joe Griffin, Psychologist and co-founder of the Human Givens Institute
We live in an increasingly stressful world, and the pressures of modern life can easily trigger fear, anxiety and depression. You might be experiencing some of these feelings or perhaps struggling to cope with panic attacks, a phobia, or a traumatic memory. It could be that you’re wrestling with an addiction or obsessive thoughts and behaviours. Whatever the case, and whatever the cause, we can help you to recover and get your life back on track – quickly, safely and effectively.
Human givens therapy is an up to date, evidence-based therapy which offers effective relief from emotional distress. Based on a scientific, psychological and biological model of human functioning, it utilises a range of proven psychotherapeutic techniques as well as the latest knowledge from neuroscience, to help aid your recovery. This holistic approach to achieving well-being recognises that whilst it is important to understand your personal history and symptoms, the best results come from looking forward at what can be done now, in the present, as this gives you the best chance of regaining and sustaining your emotional health into the future.
After suffering with severe anxiety, I was willing to try anything to change my life. I didn’t really expect the treatment to be as effective it was and the techniques Cathy gave me to cope with panic attacks and negative thoughts made an enormous difference. I was able to move on with my life and even get through an intense interview and be offered my perfect job, without falling apart as I would have previously.
