About me
I am a Jungian Analyst, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor with over 25 years clinical experience. I work in private practice with adults. For many years I was also employed as an Analytic Psychotherapist in the NHS. Registered BPC and UKCP.
I mostly offer longer term work but can work shorter term, depending on the client's needs and wishes. I have also trained to see individuals seeking deep change in themselves, who wish to attend several times a week for psychoanalysis. I offer clinical supervision for psychotherapists, psychologists and counsellors and other mental health professionals.
Psychoanalytic work and Jungian Analysis gives importance to understanding our unconscious processes and the self, via the therapeutic relationship, dreams, images and the resonance of early relationships/attachment throughout our lives.
I am experienced in working with clients who have experienced early developmental trauma and work analytically, with a Jungian lens, and with an approach that understands early attachment and its echoes in all our other relationships through life.
