About Me
I have more than 20 years' experience of listening to and working with people from a diverse range of contexts and backgrounds in various pastoral and therapeutic contexts, both privately and in institutional settings.
To become a qualified psychodynamic psychotherapist I underwent rigorous post-graduate training at the Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), a leading professional body for Jungian analysts and psychotherapists. This included my own in-depth experience as a patient in analysis.
I hold professional membership with the Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), the International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP), the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC), and the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP).
I chose to specialise in Jungian psychotherapy because Carl Jung's commitment to experiencing a more abundant life, through awareness of the creative urge and spiritual longing, resonates with my desire to support people in coming to a deeper understanding of themselves.
You may be considering psychotherapy because of a specific issue, such as anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, questions around sexuality and/or gender, or dissatisfaction with intimate relationships; alternatively, you might feel a more general sense of not being fully yourself, or wish to transform certain habits and patterns of behaviour. Psychotherapy can offer space and time to explore both presenting issues and their underlying causes with another person who is experienced, compassionate, and non-judgemental.
I work with patients both in person and online, a minimum of once-weekly.
