My core specialism is confidential, consultant-level addiction treatment for senior professionals: a discreet, one-to-one alternative to residential rehab, for people who cannot step away from their lives, who want treatment with no clinic footprint, or who have relapsed after previous stays. Having trained at the Hazelden Foundation, worked for nine years inside private residential rehab, and spent five years supervising private-rehab teams, I know that world from the inside, and I offer the depth of serious addiction work delivered within your own life, where recovery ultimately has to hold.
I am also a specialist in eating disorders, including the male eating disorders that are so often missed. This matters because the two frequently travel together: a great deal of addiction relapse is driven by an untreated eating disorder, and I treat both as the single problem they usually are.
Around this sits a broader integrative, depth-oriented practice, drawing on Jungian analysis, psychodynamic work, EMDR and art therapy, for the trauma, depression, anxiety and midlife or identity change that so often accompany addiction. I also provide psychotherapy-informed executive coaching. Sessions are available in person at Harley Street and online worldwide, in English and French.
