About me

I am also a psychoanalytic psychotherapist working with adults and am registered with the British Psychoanalytic Society (www.bpc.org.uk) I have a private practice working with adults and children.
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy
Psychoanalytic psychotherapy offers a chance to understand patterns of behaviour, (OCD/eating disorders/phobias) or ways of feeling (anxiety/depression/mood swings) that damage how we feel about ourselves, our relationships or our work lives. Through understanding comes a new way of relating to oneself and others that builds self esteem and resilience.
