About Speaker

Dr Trevor Griffiths studied medicine, neuroscience, and immunology at Oxford University before becoming a pioneering doctor for 25 years in systemic family healthcare, promoting healthy communications. He founded a Charity to prevent illness and socially disruptive behaviour by teaching about ‘the rough end of emotional literacy’. The Emotional Logic Centre is now international on five continents with a strong and growing schools’ programme. Trevor now trains trainers and supervisors of Emotional Logic Coaches full-time, with an aim to have every family able to use Emotional Logic language to manage disappointments and setbacks in the most constructive ways. He started publishing in this field in 1999, and has two books, a children’s illustrated book series, and several papers in print.

With his wife, Marian, also a doctor, they ran their home as a therapeutic community for 20 years along the lines of Celtic Christian hospitality. Trevor nearly left medicine to study comparative religion, but has maintained that interest as a hobby in the decades since. His main joy is in promoting the unity that underlies ever-diversifying and ever-renewing life, while working with the many sources of grief that trouble people. Trevor and Marian have two daughters and four grandchildren, all of whom exercise their powers of choice in diversifying ways to keep their parents on their toes.
