Approach
Treatment Approaches
PsychoanalysisRecommended for those who want to explore how their unconscious mind and early experiences affect their current behaviors and feelings.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
Psychotherapy Recommended for those who want to work through emotional or mental health challenges by talking with a trained psychotherapist.
My approach is rooted in a Jungian school of thought, and I’m especially interested in the symbolic language of dreams, myths, and the deeper layers of the psyche. That said, I draw from a range of psychoanalytic theories and like to keep an open, flexible mind-set in my work.
Experience
My work experience includes counselling at Somerset Counselling Centre, a BACP-accredited service supporting both adults and adolescents with a wide range of presentations, with a particular focus on trauma. I have also worked with Turning Point, a UK-based service supporting individuals with addiction issues. In addition, I have gained valuable experience in behavioural support schools, inpatient rehabilitation settings, and supported housing for people living with mental health challenges.
Education
I have a Master in psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy from Goldsmiths university of London.
