Former musician, bestselling author, film maker, podcaster, psychedelic integrator, coffee lover and denim freak, Jerry Hyde has 27 years clinical experience, working with people to access their creativity to live a better life.  He works with couples and individuals and leads the largest men’s group practice in the UK.  He is experienced in working with learning difficulties like dyslexia and ADHD.

An outspoken advocate of shamanic plant medicines he believes for some people a combination of deep psychotherapeutic work and psychedelic entheogens to be the most powerful way of bringing about real, lasting and positive transformation.

However this path is not for everyone - if you're thinking of going down that road for the first time it's a good idea to explore the pros and cons beforehand, whether you're considering microdosing or a full blown psychedelic journey.

Jerry has experience of working with LSD, psilocybin, iboga, ayahuasca, DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, kambo, mescaline and MDMA.

Whilst he does not provide any of these medicines, he acknowledges that what is being heralded as the 'psychedelic renaissance' is well under way and that good preparation and deep integration is an incredibly important and often overlooked requirement for anyone embarking on this journey.

"Jerry's a life stirrer upper.  A really rare person that openly opposes the fucked up way the world is and actually DOES something about it – he’s a natural born killer of bullshit.

He’s a modern day tribal leader trying to reinstate some sense of authenticity into teams of people that have lost it or never even had a glimpse of it in their entire lives. “

Sian – Singer and artist

“Working out of instinct, feeling and the heart Jerry doesn’t analyse me, he experiences me. Jerry seems to work out of the space where he really wants to be, interacting with people that he likes and believes he can help. That may seem selfish but a good therapist has to look after themselves first and foremost and Jerry’s genuine interest in and love for the people he works with is clear. He is sensitive and deeply caring but is always ready to challenge and disrupt, helping prompt the chaos or revelation that allows me to grow.”

Robin, Investment Manager

“I worked with Jerry for almost 6 years. Whilst I came to value him as a friend, his professional know-how ensured that our sessions were at times extremely challenging; if they hadn’t been, I wouldn’t have confronted some very difficult truths. I never doubted his support and came to trust him implicitly. Jerry finds a perfect balance between deep compassion and professional distance. He is terribly clever but never pompous, and introduces humour with impeccable timing. For anyone looking for an intuitive and interactive style of “therapy”, Jerry is the one. He brings you to the nub of the matter gently, but with assurance.”

Joanne, Curator/Garden Designer
