To help come to terms with an “existential crisis” in his early thirties, Chris began a study of channelled metaphysical literature—in particular, The Seth Material authored by Jane Roberts. His Seth studies awakened a passion for psychology, so in 1994 Chris embarked on an academic study of the subject while continuing his metaphysical education on the nature of the psyche.

By 1998, he had earned an Honours Degree in Psychology from the University of London, a Master’s Degree in Organisational and Occupational Psychology from the University of Surrey, and developed an in-depth knowledge of a variety of metaphysical offerings relating to the spiritual and psychological aspects to the ‘Self’ and the nature of our physical reality.

Chris has run Counselling for your Self since 2001, which is a complementary therapeutic practice that adopts an “integral approach”—an eclectic mix of academic psychotherapeutic approaches with alternative procedures such as Energy Psychology techniques and guided meditation. Following his training under Dr. Brian Weiss in 2007, he added Past Life Regression Therapy to his therapeutic arsenal. Further research and experience with clients suggest this may be a misnomer. “Accessing Other Lives (be they perceived as past, present, or future) Therapy” may be more appropriate!

Chris has presented internationally on his interpretations of metaphysical knowledge since 2003. He developed a series of experiential workshops, first rolled out in the autumn of 2009, specifically designed to bring others a fuller appreciation of their “Self” and their life’s intent and purpose.

In 2010 Chris became a Principal Instructor for NewWorldView. NWV aims to establish an educational platform for those who wish to find clarity on who they are and why they are here at this momentous time in human evolution. It also aims to provide a sanctuary for the alleviation of any personal mental anguish or confusion arising from this era of significant change in the collective psyche of humanity (the so-called “shift in consciousness”). He played a crucial role in their online course entitled “Seth Revealed” through 2011 and 2012 – a foundational in-depth study of the compiled works of Seth and Jane Roberts, designed and presented by Paul and Joanne Helfrich. The Seth Revealed course is now available online as an on-demand offering from NWV. Click here for details.

Chris became a member of the Scientific and Medical Network in 2011.

His first book, It’s About You! Know Your Self, was published in 2013. Working with information provided by various channeled guides, Know Your Self explores the breadth of the structure of the Self, from the identity of our Essence self or soul, to the constantly fearful ego-self that so often stymies the full expression of who we are. Know Your Self is a book that also reveals the true nature of the tools you use to create your reality – primarily your thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and emotions.

A New Edition of Know Your Self was published on Jan 31 2020.

Other publications derived from his metaphysical studies include:

Chris began collaborating with George Goodenow on The Light Trigger project in August 2023.
