My Approach

My approach although essentially psychodynamic is informed by other ways of thinking and working including those based on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Mentalisation Based Therapy (MBT), Attachment Theory and anxiety management. A psychodynamic approach is based on the understanding that how we feel in the present is linked not only to our own individual and unique psyche (our mind) but also, either knowingly or un-knowingly, with earlier experiences. I tailor work to individual needs whether you are looking for short-term counselling or longer-term in-depth psychotherapy.
