About me
I have been working with people in various capacities for over 20 years, joining them in sense-making journeys that allow them to live more content and meaningful lives. My therapeutic focus is to help people explore their thoughts, emotions and past so as to relieve difficult states or obstacles to their wellbeing. When people understand what drives their actions and make contact with lost or hidden parts of themselves, they can re-engage with relationships and feel they can own their life.
Gaining insight into what is unconsciously driving one's thoughts and behaviours can dramatically shift their outlook and the way one responds to life events. I have trained psychoanalytically to get to the roots of what keeps people entrapped in emotional or relational status-quos but also to locate those resources to free themselves and get a sense of their own destiny.
I work online in medium and long-term psychotherapy with patients from both the UK and Europe, and also offer face-to-face sessions in my private practice in Bournemouth and one day a week in London. My average fee is £55/weekly session, but I also practice a sliding scale based on frequency and life circumstances.
