About me
When we are going through a really difficult time we can feel worried and isolated. Therapy gives us somewhere confidential to talk about what is going on and how we are feeling.
Do I have specialities?
I did a six year training and have seen clients for nine years. If you are anxious, worried, in pain, struggling, you are welcome to come. My role is to listen to what you are saying and to be alongside you for as long as you come - to try and hearwhat you are struggling with.
Relationships
Our relationships are often the most important thing in the world to us. Of course we work on them, but sometimes they start going wrong and we don't know what to do. It can help to talk things through; and sometimes other things come up as we do.
To be understood
I imagine that you want a safe place where you feel understood; you want to find someone you can connect with and that you can trust. You would be very welcome to phone or to email, and see how you feel. I am based in Littlehampton and see people face to face as well as working online and by phone.
Working with young people
I work in a secondary school as a psychotherapist and I have a current DBS certificate. In my practice I work with over 16s. I would be happy to talk more about that.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a psychotherapist registered with the British Psychoanalytical Council and am a member of the Society of Analytical Psychology and the International Association for Analytical Psychology; and have a current DBS certificate.
I am from a Jungian background but I believe that psychoanalysts from lots of traditions are really important. I also value dreams and what our bodies may be telling us.
I see adults and teenagers 16+; I have worked in the NHS and in a counselling service as well as supervising groups of counsellors.
