Course & Client Testimonials
"Andrew Austin is clear, original, and outspoken about mental illness, medication, and psychiatry. His skills were honed by years of experience in the 'trenches' of psychiatry, so he knows what he is talking about." Steve Andreas "Love him or hate him, Andrew is always thought provoking in his communications and the planet certainly needs more people like him!" Nick Kemp, Hypnotherapist, PT & PCW trainer "In a field filled with pretense, Andy's evident openness and curiosity for what is and what could be are very welcome... in addition to his considerable skills." Charles Faulkner "Andy is as insightful in person as his website would suggest. Unorthodox, perhaps, but always passionate; his grasp of his chosen subject is, frankly, astonishing and matched only by the single mindedness with which he pursues still deeper understanding." Dr. Alan Lush PhD "I can't thank you enough for inviting me and my friends onto your most excellent course. It has been the single most productive event in all my NLP studies..." Rob A'Court "Andy's relaxed yet sometime provocative style is a welcome change from many trainers and he has a great grasp of the material. I wholeheartedly recommend it [IEMT Workshop] to anyone who wishes to be more effective in their change work and it has to be the best value training I have ever attended." Chris O'Donnell "...I thought you seemed motivated by a humane and compassionate attitude and one of genuine listening for the meaning behind the language of 'delusion'... I wish there had been a nurse like you in the hospitals I was in." K. N., patient "Hugely congruent and massively practical. Andy's training is clear, concise and very memorable with stories of his own provocative and effective therapy he will have you laughing and crying. IEMT is a rapid and wonderfully content free intervention. Anyone with a serious commitment to really increasing their clinical skills must attend one of Andy's trainings." Nigel Hetherington, NLP and Hypnotherapy Trainer "Andy Austin is a true pioneer. His creation of the HIGHLY effective Integral Eye Movement Therapy is clearly well researched, tested and honed. Having trained with countless supposed ‘experts’ I can quite happily state Andy is one of the greatest minds I have ever had the good fortune to meet and learn from. His depth of understanding of the human mind, psychological conditions, the role of the therapist and the nature of the client is… ASTONISHING! I thoroughly recommend any therapist who is serious about therapy to train with Andy." Michael Christon, internationally licensed NLP trainer and coach "Andy is a class of his own. I like him for his provocative style, humble and funny. His knowledge is absolutely huge. A huge, huge openess for people and even during lunchtime he explained to us issues very distant from IEMT. I was afraid that the training would be quite "technically-academic" and I was pleasantly surprised. Andrew is a hilarious guy." Aleksander Zub "Integral Eye Movement Therapy has been a highly effective tool, that can be simply applied to many of the diverse issues brought by clients, with powerful results. I highy recommend Andy Austin, both as a therapist and trainer, whose expertise is uncontained by the boundaries of the conventional. As a result I would advise you to expect the unexpected, with the exception that you can always expect to be impressed." Kim Leader, Trainer, Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist "Since the IEMT practitioner course I have been using IEMT with 90% of my clients with incredibly positive results. The Advanced IEMT course has given me the opportunity to refine the IEMT technique and to wider the variety of issues I will be using it for.The 2 days were highly informative with a good pace and always extremely interesting. I feel this course has extended my abilities significantly as a Therapeutic Practitioner." Louise Staden, Hypnotherapist and NLP Practitioner "I have known Andrew T Austin by reputation for over a decade and in person since 2004. He is one of a very few people who have the crucial combination of an excellent manner and genuine skills that produces real lasting change for clients. In an era where virtually every person involved in change work and therapy is described as “a genius” it’s rare to find someone who genuinely pushes the boundaries in the field of Changework. His solid clinical background ensures that those clients lucky enough to see him are always in the best possible hands." Nick Kemp,
Creator Of Provocative Change Works™,Provocative Therapy Trainer "The 2 day Integral Eye Movement course was inspiring, enlightening and excellent value for money. I have gone on to use the techniques, which we were coherently taught, with several clients and have had impressive positive results." Louise Staden, Hypnotherapist & NLP Practitioner "Andy Austin is an intelligent and entertaining trainer. He demonstrates high standards regarding working with clients and more importantly, he trains you to become aware of yourself as the clinician/coach in all types of situations. His material is very useful for individuals who want to increase their therapeutic skills. He cleverly leads students to find the answers within and then offers new ideas to challenge their learning even more. I have enjoyed my experiences learning from Andy and I recommend him as a trainer." Rachel Hott, Ph.D. Co-director The NLP Center of NY "I’ve just attended a one-day One Day Weight Loss Workshop with Andy Austin. What fun! His direct and humorous style of communication had me totally absorbed. The course was insightful, informative and very, very useful. The timing couldn’t have been better as my first Sounds Positive Weight Loss Group Workshop starts this week in Henley on Thames. As a result of what I learned I’ve restructured my workshop content to include the material Andy gave us. I couldn’t recommend this course more highly." Lysette Offley, Hypnotherapist and Coach "Your presence, style and interaction with everyone was engaging, playful and fun... which made the learning all that more enjoyable! I particularly liked the stories you told to illustrate (or is that to entertain!?!) certain points." Midgie Thompson, Performance and Lifestyle Coach "I have followed the work of Andrew Austin for a number of years now. He is utterly engaging as a speaker and trainer, and will often challenge perceptions you might have with his often controversial style. What I like about training with Andy is that he has real world experience from his private practice, not just uber-compliant course delegates, and will do whatever he needs to do in order to help people change. His time in Neurosurgery and pragmatic commitment to excellence have given Andrew a unique take on therapy and change. I also like the way he inoculates against some of the barmier therapies with a dose of common sense. I have trained with Andrew on several occasions, He is massively congruent in what he does, as he has worked with some really extreme cases therapeutically, His trainings represent extremely good value, and have personally revolutionised my private practise. Anyone who is interested in personal development, therapy or coaching should train with him." Alan Whitton, Hypnotherapist and Trainer "He uses many stories and examples from his therapeutic experience... Andrew T. Austin is one of few trainers who I've met who knows what he doing and what he wants to do. Absolutely, perfect job. Every time I discover something new in what I implement to my life and job." Piotrek Podgórski, Poland. "Andrew has a truly unique way of looking at all weight issues. The whole day was extremely thought provoking and unlike anything I had previously heard about weight, an excess the which I have carried for the whole of my adult life. Ideas around how people process information & consequentially food were belief shattering. I shall be forever grateful for Andrew putting on this event and sharing his insight with me and "if the proof is in the pudding" I have lost over a stone by doing absolutely nothing accept paying attention and considering the information shared with us on the wonderful life changing day. Thank you Andrew, please run many more, the world needs you!!" Erica - NLP trainer, coach & therapist. |
