Psychoanalytic psychotherapy provides a confidential setting within which people can explore their problems, feelings, relationships and everyday life struggles. It is a widely practiced form of emotional help, normally offered by therapists who have undergone extensive training.
The following issues are familiar to my practice and are reasons for which people might seek psychotherapy:
Depression, anxiety, addictions, anger, relationship problems, divorce, bereavement and other losses, fear, trauma such as survival of accidents violence or abuse, sexual issues, identity confusion, childhood or adulthood sexual abuse, child rearing/parental struggles, difficult early life experiences, struggles with life transitions,feelings of emptiness and hopelessness, suicidal feelings, sense of loneliness or alienation, feelings of regret, guilt or shame, lack of confidence, work issues, pain and unexplained physical symptoms.
Thinking things through with an experienced psychotherapist can bring relief, empower people to make choices and negotiate complex issues. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy is usually a longer-term talking therapy (a minimum of one year) but on occasion, a focused problem may be addressed within a shorter time-frame. You are welcome to phone or email if you would like to find out more or arrange a confidential consultation to assess whether psychoanalytic psychotherapy can be of help to you.
I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist with over 15 years of practice, originally from Ukraine. I am a certified member and practitioner of the European Confederation of Psychoanalytic Psychotheraies (ECPP); The Ukrainian Umbrella Association of Psychotherapists (UUAP) and the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP).
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.
