I am an experienced psychotherapist and have worked in private practice for over 25 years and the NHS (now semi-retired) for 15 years. My background and experience mean that I draw on a range of approaches and work at a depth that is right for you. I can work with you more than once a week, which sometimes may be needed. Psychotherapy can be helpful to deal with a particular crisis in your life and to find ways to manage things. It can also be a way to reflect on your life, the things that have happened to you and patterns that are causing difficulties. Sometimes the work is quite short-term and focussed, at other times it can be a much longer piece of work which takes you on a new journey in your life. My job is to support you and help you to develop awareness, insight and understanding so that you can make changes and live more fully. I have an interest in Jungian ideas and am training as a Jungian analyst. I can help you to learn to live more consciously and to try to make better choices rather than reacting to life's circumstances out of fear, anger, depression or hurt.
I am an Integrative and Transpersonal psychotherapist. I am also a registered Clinical Supervisor.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
