Practice description

I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and I offer therapy to adults experiencing a broad range of difficulties. I am an Individual Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and abide by their Code of Ethics.

I have worked in a variety of settings including the Police Service and Rape Crisis, and am experienced in working with clients who have experienced trauma in all forms, whether in early years, adult life or both. With additional training and experience working as a Yoga Teacher and Personal Trainer, I am particularly interested in the mind body connection and use of psychotherapy to explore this.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is based on the premise that unconscious thoughts and beliefs developed in infancy are at the root of our experiences as adults. As a result, we may find ourselves developing particular defences and repeating patterns in relationships. The aim of psychodynamic psychotherapy is therefore to bring what is unconscious into consciousness in a held and supportive environment. Through doing so, clients can explore alternative ways of being in the world and bring about lasting change.
