“What a gift Andrew has. Sure, Human Givens is the wrapper around his service, but it is he that makes the difference.” Dylan

“There must be a way out of depression and anxiety. And you, Andrew, know this way very well. More than this, you know the alchemy of the mind!.” Alexander

“The Human Givens approach is obviously fantastic but your intuition, compassion and wisdom is one-of-a-kind. The work you do is amazing and you need to know this. You changed my life and gave me professional help when nobody else would. There will always be a special place in my heart for you.” Melissa
