My work as a hypnotherapist is grounded in a new school of therapy, known as the Human Givens Approach. This is a large organising idea that draws on findings from psychology and brain science about how people really function.
It is informed by international studies that have established which psychotherapy techniques and methods are the most effective.
This approach focuses on basic human needs and highlights the resources we can make use of to meet those needs. The extent to which we can utilise our resources is a good measure of how well we are mentally as well as physically.
Our basic needs include:
In addition to these basic needs we have an inner guidance system that allows us to obtain these needs from our environment. This is human "tool kit" includes:
Together these needs and resources make up what we call the "Human Givens". As long as these are present and in balance we will be well. Problems arise whenever one or more of these are lacking for some reason.
The most effective types of therapy are those that take this into account and help the client to utilise those wonderful resources to get needs met in balance.
