About me and my therapy practice
I know of the innate power of the psyche to heal and shape a meaningful future. From this starting point, I see therapy as providing a generous space for an authentic life to unfold.I am trained as a psychodynamic psychotherapist and analytical psychologist. My training lasted 7 years and included a breadth of seminars on theory and good contemporary practice, supervised clinical work, studies in infant development, psychiatric experience, and engagement in questions of the breadth of human development, including culture and spirituality.
I am in the highest category of competence within the Scoped framework of the major voluntary regulating bodies. My experience includes thousands of hours of clinical work.
Practice description
Our session time together rests on the organically emerging life of the psyche and our relationship. The sessions are shaped by whatever you wish to bring from your everyday life, relationships, interior world, or night dreams. There is space for conversation as well as for silence. You may sit in an armchair or lie on a couch. At the beginning of a session, I will usually quietly wait for you to begin making use of your time with me.My first session
A first session gives you a chance to tell me about what brings you and what you hope for, ask questions and experience me as a therapist.
Should we decide that I am not the right person for you, my professional network is available for onward referral.
You will have my full professional attention for 50 minutes. I charge a fee for an assessment. Realistic fees for ongoing work can be negotiated between us depending on circumstances.
