My Approach

Psychoanalysis - but we hopefully find an approach together that works for us.

About Me

I have been working with people in acute distress since the 80s. Areas of work included: war trauma and torture, trafficking, sex work, addiction, mental health, HIV/AIDS, LGBTI concerns, anxiety and depression. Before joining academia, I managed a therapy service for the homeless and was involved in different activist projects. My background training and study is in gender and women’s studies, psychoanalysis, crisis therapy, reflective practice, supervision, group work, social work, psychology, and anthropology. I have supervised trainee therapists for many years and is currently on the training committee for the Site for Contemporary Psychoanalysis.
