Dr Alex Howard

Founder and Executive Chairman

Dr Alex Howard is Founder & Executive Chairman of The Optimum Health Clinic, which he set up after his own seven year struggle with ME/CFS as a teenager. Alex is the author of three best-selling books, which have been translated into nine languages, Why ME?,Decode Your Fatigue, and It’s Not Your Fault.

Alex received his PhD in Psychology from University of Greater Manchester and is creator of the Therapeutic Coaching® methodology. Since March 2020, Alex has been documenting his therapeutic work with real life patients via his ground-breaking In Therapy with Dr Alex Howard YouTube series.

Alex has also created some of the largest online conferences in the world, including the Fatigue Super Conference, and the annual Trauma Super Conference – Alex’s conferences have been attended by over two million people. Alex has published academic research in publications such as the British Medical Journal Open and Psychology and Health, and has passionately been supporting those affected by fatigue-related conditions for over two decades.

There is an opportunity to work with Alex in 1-1 therapeutic coaching sessions, whilst having access to all of his programs and wider team. You can have sessions in person or online, and spread out over 8 months, or more intensely – you will work together to design a program just for you.

You will also have access to any new online programs that he launches within the year of your mentorship (please note this does not include professional training programs, and may not include any externally hosted programs).
