Profile

I am a Jungian psychotherapist in private practice in Lancaster.

I work with clients experiencing the inevitable human suffering caused by bereavement, illness, destructive relationships, work-related stress and life changes; and with clients who choose to engage with the unconscious and address existential issues.

I anchor my practice in my own inner work and life experience – having worked in business, lived in different countries and generally tried to understand what it is to ‘be myself’. I believe that therapy is a mutual process where together with clients, we look for a way out of the storms, the darkness and the sticky patches that would otherwise prevent us from experiencing life fully.

Training, Qualifications & Experience

I am a Diploma Candidate at the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, Switzerland. I am in regular supervision with an experienced Jungian Training Analyst.

I have an MSc in the Psychodynamics of Human Development offered jointly by Birkbeck College and the British Association of Psychotherapists.

I also have a Postgraduate Diploma in Coaching Psychology. Through years of practice as an executive coach, I became familiar with a number of approaches including CBT and Gestalt therapy.

I speak French and Japanese fluently and have experience working with clients from all cultural backgrounds, or in cross-cultural relationships.

Payment is expected at the end of each calendar month.

Further Information

I hold experiential workshops on Dreams, Images and Imagination.
Over a series of six evening workshops, you learn about:

• Working with dreams – your dreams and those of others
• Engaging creatively with emotions and the unconscious
• Dream psychology, symbolism and interpretation
• The universal and personal messages conveyed in dreams

Who  participates?
Every few months, I form groups of maximum eight people willing to create a safe environment where we share and work with our own dreams. I  facilitate the workshops and help each group member to address their own needs and questions.

Where and when?
The group meets on Tuesday evenings between 6pm and 8pm in Lancaster city centre.
Registration is for six workshops; participants should commit to attend all sessions as much as possible. The participation fee is £120 for the series of six workshops (£20 per two-hour session).

Upcoming dates are:
