Daniel Hadjiandreou
Relevant Credentials
University qualifications and experience which is used extensively when working with you:
- BA (Human Movement Studies and Distinction in Psychology), 1989-1991, Rhodes University, South Africa – my entry point into a vocation which works with people holistically, where all parts of themselves are integrated into wholeness
- BA (Honours) Psychology, 1992, Rhodes University, South Africa – here experiential and conceptual knowledge was integrated into a knowing of how to relate with other humans as a human who has worked through his own ‘stuff’ (and continues to do so). Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) was a substantial part of my degree, which has been used in my work for over 20 years.
- MA Research Psychology, 1995-1996, Stellenbosch University, South Africa – although didn’t complete this degree the person in my action research overcame a fear of deep water and became a world champion swimmer. Happy to share why the degree was not completed, it is quite an interesting story. Give me a call if you like.
Keeping my knowledge up-to-date with relevant CPPD is a joy, and I am a long standing member of the Health and Care Professions Council and British Psychological Society.
