I am an experienced psychotherapist with over 15 years of clinical practice in adult mental health services within the NHS, specialising in Jungian psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic psychotherapy. My practice, based on the Greensand Ridge bordering Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire, serves clients across Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Hertfordshire, Milton Keynes, and Northamptonshire. I offer comprehensive assessments to determine the most appropriate therapeutic approach, which may include Jungian psychoanalysis, psychoanalytic psychotherapy, clinical supervision, or referrals to alternative therapies. My expertise extends to working with complex mental health issues such as borderline personality disorder, trauma, psychosis, and eating disorders, informed by my background as an art therapist and my advanced training with the Society of Analytical Psychology.I provide both in-person and online sessions via Zoom or Microsoft Teams, ensuring accessibility for clients in any geographical location. My therapeutic approach prioritises understanding the unconscious patterns underlying symptomatic behaviours, fostering a consistent and reliable relationship to support long-term healing. I also contribute to professional training and consultancy, including roles as a Training Analyst with the Society of Analytical Psychology and the British Jungian Analytic Association.
