Confidential. Supportive. Just for you.

Just getting by is no fun

I understand what it’s like to feel the utter despair of living with an unwanted feeling or behaviour, frustrated you can’t live life the way you want to and worrying about the future. It’s exhausting.

I’ve helped thousands of people get back to the lives they deserve, so that life can be good again.

My approach 

Life has not always been easy for most of us, even for the strongest of people. We all need help at some point in our lives, this help is what enables us to recover fully from life’s most challenging problems.

The truth is that we all have our battles to fight, we all have our challenges to face and we all have our crosses to carry, but these battles cannot be fought using the wrong techniques and methods. Unwanted fears, phobias and habits take away the true essence of living. They deprive you of Peace of mind and affect everything around you, from your relationships with family, friends, work, and yourself. Believe me, I know what it feels like because I have walked that path and here I am now hoping to help you find your path right back to a peaceful, bright, and joyful life.

It is never too late to change and start living the life you’ve always wanted.
If you’re interested in becoming a happier, more fulfilled you, I would love to work with you every step of the way. Please send me a message today!

My name is Andy Griffiths and I am a fully accredited Clinical Hypnotherapist registered with the General Hypnotherapy Standards Council and the Complimentary & Natural Healthcare Council.

I am passionate about helping people who are feeling overwhelmed and struggling with Anxiety, Depression, Phobias and unwanted feelings and behaviours such as overeating or smoking. Most people don’t know which way to turn because these problems do not only drain the mind, but they also extend to other areas of general wellbeing.

You may have tried other treatments such as CBT or counselling or have even visited your doctor only to be prescribed a course of tablets that have not really helped, leading to a sense of not knowing where to look for help or who to listen to.

Benefits of HYPNOSIS

Hypnotherapy is a completely safe process that clients find both relaxing and enjoyable. The average person experiences Hypnosis 2–3 times a day, think of a time when you have driven somewhere and not really remembered the journey, or a time when you were so busy doing something and were completely unaware of how much time had passed by.

My highly effective form of hypnotherapy works with your subconscious mind to revert back to a period before your unwanted feelings or behaviours started, this method helps you to successfully start all over again without having to relive that unwanted habit, feeling or behaviour.

What My Clients​​ Say about Me

Google-reviews

I had my first hypno session with Andy today to help me try to eat a wider variety of foods as my diet is very limited at the moment. He is very likeable and calming and has really put my mind at ease about hypnotherapy. I feel a lot less anxious about trying new foods now and am excited to start trying more things. All in all a very good session for me.

I finished my third session yesterday and feel completely different from 4 weeks ago when I first met Andy.
My only regret is that I hadn’t done it sooner.
If you are not sure give him a call and have a chat, no harm in that.
Thanks Andy, Jackie

I find Andy is a great listener and never says my problems can’t be resolved . I’ve seen so many therapists over the years and wasted money along the way. I’m currently having Andy help me through vertigo which I’ve had for 5 years now. He’s been worth the money and the experience of being around someone who knows what they are talking about.

Lisa Blundell

I went to see Andy for help with a specific phobia which had started to take over my life. Not only did he help me overcome my fear, we also did some work to help me prepare for a job interview. I had been through a number of things at work that had badly damaged my confidence. With Andy’s help, I was able to put my bad experiences behind me and focus on succeeding in the here-and-now. Thank you Andy! 🙂

Ian Young

Ian Young

Training & Development

Tagline: Grounded, real and genuinely hard to forget.

Ian is an experienced therapist whose work spans trauma, addiction, anxiety and recovery. His approach is shaped as much by lived experience as by professional training and that combination makes him exceptionally relatable to the people he works with.

People who’ve worked with Ian consistently say the same thing — he gets it in a way that goes beyond what most trainers can offer. He doesn’t just understand the subject. He understands people.

Within Piece of Mind Training, Ian also plays a key role in business and strategic development, bringing a practical, grounded perspective to how the organisation grows and evolves.

David

David Gowans

Training & Development

Tagline: He’s seen mental health crisis at its most acute. And he knows what actually helps.

David’s background is probably unlike anyone else you’ll meet in a mental health training room.

Twenty-three years on the frontline of emergency services first as a police officer, now as an HCPC-registered practising paramedic. He hasn’t studied stress, trauma and burnout from a distance. He’s carried them, in uniform, responding to people at the absolute worst moments of their lives. He understands the culture that makes asking for help feel like the hardest thing in the world because he’s lived inside that culture.

That frontline experience sits alongside his clinical practice as a qualified hypnotherapist and accredited EFT practitioner. David works with real people navigating real challenges every single week. What he brings to Piece of Mind Training isn’t theoretical. It’s current, grounded and built entirely from the inside out.

As part of the team, David delivers training, practises as a therapist and plays a key role in the development and direction of the organisation making sure that everything Piece of Mind produces is professionally rigorous and genuinely human.

David is responsible for development and ensures that Piece of Mind Training programmes are grounded in real-world application. Not what the textbook says should happen. What actually works when it matters.

Iona

Iona Russell

Growth & Partnerships

Tagline: She’s written the book. Literally.

Iona has spent more than twenty years working at the intersection of human potential and real-world impact — across psychology, coaching, education, broadcasting, the charitable sector and social policy, in both the UK and the USA.

She is a Master Positive Psychology Coach and twice bestselling author who has supported hundreds of people through coaching qualifications and worked alongside some of the most respected names in positive psychology and personal development. As a keynote speaker and leadership advisor, she helps organisations rethink what success and human flourishing actually look like.

But what drives Iona’s commitment to mental health work goes deeper than her professional background. She lost her brother to suicide. That experience — and everything it taught her about the gap between what people are going through and the support available to them — shapes everything she brings to Piece of Mind Training.

At Piece of Mind, Iona leads our partnerships, builds community impact and drives our growth across Scotland and beyond. She brings commercial insight, deep human understanding and a personal reason for being here that no CV can fully capture.

Ann

Ann Stewart

Head of Training

Tagline: The person who makes sure the learning delivers every time.

Ann has spent her career helping people make sense of the things that are weighing on them and finding a way forward when everything feels tough.

Her background is genuinely rare. A qualified teacher, certified hypnotherapist, coach and First Aid for Mental Health practitioner, Ann brings together an understanding of how people learn with a deep, practical knowledge of how people struggle. She still works directly with adults and young people every week supporting those experiencing anxiety, low confidence, emotional distress and the kind of quiet difficulties that don’t always have a name but make everyday life feel impossibly hard.

As a trainer, Ann knows that the best mental health training doesn’t just inform people, it changes how they see themselves and the people around them. She brings that belief into every session she delivers, whether she’s working with a room full of HR professionals or a team who’ve never talked about mental health at work before.

As a therapist, trainer, teacher and mum of three, Ann understands that most people are dealing with far more than anyone around them realises. That understanding is the foundation of everything she does.

At Piece of Mind Training, Ann leads on training quality and consistency, making sure that what we promise is what every learner experiences, every time.
