About Andrew
I grew up in Felixstowe and after finishing school I went to Art College in Ipswich for 4 years. I moved to London in 1988 to pursue a career in the Graphic Design industry. I had a great time doing that and it was hard work at times and a lot of fun. I eventually moved back to East Anglia in 2003 and have been living in Mistley, Essex for the last 20 years.
In 2002 I developed an interest in Reiki healing. I did this for several years and passed Practitioner and Master Practitioner certificate exams. I regularly intended practice groups for the next two years and got involved in training.
In 2004 I studied at Colchester Institute taking a Foundation Course in person centred counselling.
Later on I took my first NLP course. My journey into NLP started fully in 2012 and was very much about an interest in personal development. However, in the process of learning NLP it became obvious to me that helping other people with their issues and challenges was very rewarding. This developed into a love of coaching using NLP techniques. I got my NLP Master Practitioners certificate in 2016.
For the past 3 years I have been working in the charity sectore as a support worker with adults who have learning disabilities some coupled with physical disabilities.

Along with Coaching and NLP qualifications/experience I have always had an interest in personal development which has grown over time.
