What is Human Givens Therapy?

Human Givens (HG) therapy is a practical, science-informed approach that focuses on helping people get what they need to enjoy good mental health and a more fulfilling life. It is increasingly recognised both in the UK and internationally for producing effective, lasting results in a relatively short time, with many clients experiencing positive change in just 4–6 sessions.

This approach brings together proven methods such as cognitive and behavioural techniques, clinical hypnotherapy, and solution-focused conversations. Together, these tools help uncover what might be missing in someone’s life, while offering practical coping strategies and fresh perspectives that make difficult situations easier to manage.

HG has a wide range of uses beyond private counselling. It is applied in healthcare, education, social services, business settings, corporate environments, technology, renewable energy, conflict resolution, sport, and high-performance coaching, and its reach continues to grow.
