About me
I am a BPC registered Jungian Analytical Psychotherapist with over 25 years of clinical experience working in both the NHS and in private practice. I offer counselling, psychotherapy and clinical supervision online via zoom.
Examples of Issues that I offer therapy for include: depression; anxiety; managing difficult life events (past or present); concerns about meaning in life; trauma; abuse; low self-esteem; loss; relationship issues; creativity.
I am additionally experienced in working with issues around cultural differences and the effects of migration.
At the heart of Jungian Psychotherapy is the intention to enable individuals to achieve a creative life and to discover and engage with an authentic sense of Self that may have become blocked and thwarted over time, often due to life circumstances that have been out of one's control.
