Dr Vaughan Dutton

I specialise in online psychodynamic therapy, which provides lasting healing through self understanding and insight.

I offer a free 30 minute phone call so that we can meet and that I can answer any questions you may have.

Fee £70

In therapy, we will be interested in exploring:

How your past experiences (especially family) impact you in the present.

Your relationship patterns and attachment style.

How you are affected by your friendships and family, and social groups and systems.

How these things may play out unconsciously, in ways that you may be unaware of.

I offer psychodynamic / existential therapy, which provides lasting healing through self exploration and insight.

In therapy, we will explore:

• How your past experiences (especially family) continue to impact you in the present.
• Your relationship patterns and attachment style.
• Ways in which you may undermine yourself through self-destructive and repetative patterns. 
• How these things play out in ways beyond your conscious control.
  
• The deep origins of anxiety, depression and other symptoms.

Fees
