I am a clinical psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist offering individual therapy to adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties. These may include depression, anxiety, phobia, panic attacks, complex trauma, loss and grief, PTSD, emotional overwhelm, sexual abuse, eating disorders, personality disorders, low self-esteem, and relationship problems.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in psychoanalytic theories which focus on gaining a deeper understanding of the self and one’s subjective experience. Rather than targeting symptoms in isolation, psychoanalytic psychotherapy seeks to uncover the underlying unconscious processes that shape patterns of thought, feeling and behaviour.
I work with patients to explore the meanings embedded in their experiences. This process can help individuals gain greater insight into themselves, their relationships, and the roots of their distress. Over time, this understanding can foster emotional growth, self-acceptance, and new ways of responding to one's environment, leading to lasting change.
