John Colverson MA, UKCP (reg), MBACP
Profile
Jungian psychoanalyst and experienced integrative psychotherapist offering short term goal focused psychotherapy for specific issues, and longer term Jungian analysis to work on deeper, more entrenched issues. Jungian psychoanalysis is an exploitative process which might require more than one session a week, in which case the fee is generally lower.
