My Approach

I offer individual psychotherapy to adults and young people over the age of sixteen. I see people with a wide range of psychological difficulties including depression, anxiety, relationship problems, work related problems, life changes and bereavement. I have found that people who are experiencing depression or another form of psychological distress are usually carrying some sort of emotional wound which is preventing them from creating a life in the present which sufficiently expresses who they are. The deep self of the individual is in distress and exerts a demand that they attend to themselves and seek help in order to free themselves to live more fully in the present. Each one of us has our own unique story to tell. The aim of therapy is to offer a relationship of reliable care and thoughtfulness so that together we can identify past hurts, giving time to mourn losses and understand more fully the hurt that was experienced. We will seek to understand ways in which old wounds continue to influence the person's relationships and choices in the present and how they see, and feel about, their future life.

About Me

I am an Analytical Psychotherapist with over thirty years experience. Having initially trained as a Clinical Psychologist I became interested in depth psychology and trained as a Jungian Psychotherapist. I recognise the importance of early life experiences in shaping who we are, alongside the Jungian idea of the importance for each individual of discovering what a fulfilling life might look like for them.
