The author of numerous articles in professional journals, he set up the IBS Treatment Programme in 1994 and has since worked with hundreds of IBS sufferers from all over the UK.

The IBS Journey To Health self help package was developed in 2004 specifically for those living too far to attend individual sessions. It consists of a specially designed CD, a Handbook and Charts to monitor progress. The package has been sold worldwide and combines the best of all the stress reduction approaches most effective in alleviating IBS.

For those within travelling distance Adrian sees people privately at both his Bromley (Kent) and Norfolk practices.

He has the unique distinction of being the first person to achieve a British degree in hypnotherapy. This, in the late 1980s, attracted much publicity and proved a milestone in the recognition of hypnotherapy as an aid in treating stress related medical conditions.

A graduate of London University, he is a former policy advisor to the 30,000-member British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and has served on the Governing Council of the National Register of Hypnotherapists and Psychotherapists.

In the late 1990s he played a leading part in presenting a nationwide series of courses - funded by the UK’s Lotteries Commission - to help IBS sufferers manage and reduce their symptoms. Subsequently he gave a keynote address at London's Royal Academy to the annual conference of The Gut Trust (formerly The IBS Network) - the UK’s national support organisation for IBS sufferers.

Adrian is a former senior lecturer in counselling at a large UK college and is himself an ex-IBS sufferer.
