About Me

Jungian Analyst, Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist and Supervisor with thirty years' clinical experience as a therapist, working with all kinds of difficulty.

In recent years, my clinical work with ex-boarders has led to a particular interest in the long term emotional and psychological impact of sending children away from home at an early age into the care of an institution, in the belief that it will be the 'making of them'.

Alongside my clinical work, I have read extensively around this subject and in 2023 I attended the specialist training for therapists with Nick Duffell and Boarding School Survivors. I am now on the team of supervisors for the training. I have contributed a chapter to a recent book, 'The Un-Making of Them - Clinical reflections on Boarding School Syndrome', edited by Nick Duffell and published by Routledge in 2025. The title of my paper is 'English Landscape: an archetypal perspective on the ex-boarder'.
