About me
I am an experienced British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) registered Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist with 30 years’ experience of working in mental health in the NHS. As a registrant of the BPC, I am highly trained and adhere to their code of ethics and professional conduct, ensuring my practice is of the highest standard.
I offer Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy, which is an evidence-based therapy that helps you to address underlying issues, often from your past, that are impacting on your current life and relationships. It differs from other therapies as it aims for deep seated emotional change and development. For further information, please visit the BPC website at bpc.org.uk.
I have a private practice in Shrewsbury and offer psychotherapy to adults with a range of emotional difficulties and mental health problems including trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, phobias, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, loss and medically unexplained symptoms.
I offer a free 15 minute introductory phone call.
