You come to me because you want a very clear understanding and analysis of what you are experiencing and how to treat the issues. You want to be treated fairly, without judgement; directly, and with intelligence by someone with considerable life skills & experience. You would like to be able to quickly and easily form a strong relationship with your therapist that provides safety, confidentiality, trust and most of all a sense of hope. You want your therapist to be very well informed academically, with considerable skill and experience in being able to explain theory and how it applies to you. Couples and families welcome.

I have a particular interest and extensive knowledge regarding supporting those who have experienced early life developmental and complex trauma, separation and loss. Often these experiences continue to impact on our lives and abilities to make and sustain healthy and emotionally secure relationships in adulthood. Although psychoanalytically trained my clinical practice uses a range of therapeutic approaches and is predominately informed by attachment based theory. I can offer both short and longer term therapeutic support to individuals, couples and groups.

Are you struggling to cope with a bereavement (or need one off support to cope with a funeral), finding it difficult to overcome stress and anxiety, living with trauma's you have experienced or are experiencing? Are you not getting a good night's sleep; feeling that others do not see or hear you; have low self-esteem/confidence? Are your feelings impacting on your physical health? Are you wondering why you feel you are overreacting to minor issues and looking for a reason why this is happening to you? I want to help you navigate your way through these struggles and to transform your life, not just to cope, but to thrive. ​

Psychoanalytical Psychoanalysis and Integrative Counselling: "The speed and accuracy by which Chris was able to work out our personalities and provide genuinely useful insight was, quite frankly, incredible.  This insight, hard as it was to digest, proved to be so profound to me that I was finally able to unpick what had being going on in my relationship.  His ability to sum up the relationship in one stark metaphor was a watershed moment for me.  Through his insight and continued support I have managed to start to discover myself again and to regain my confidence which had been systematically dismantled."  Mr. M, 2019, Canterbury.

Therapy can be a catalyst for change helping us to regain a sense of control in our lives and begin to live life more towards our true potential. I have experience of working with a wide range of issues that impact on clients' wellbeing, offering support, empathy and a safe space to share their concerns. I work with individuals, couples , families, children, young people on short and long-term contracts in Canterbury and Waltham. I use different approaches and techniques that are tailored to clients' needs, believing that we are all individual and that ‘one size does not fit all’. I have also lived and worked extensively overseas.

Relationships can at times be a great source of distress and anxiety; sometimes it’s easy to feel stuck and unable to move forwards. You may be having difficulties with communication, infidelity, intimacy, sexual difficulties, or perhaps you just can’t seem to get along anymore and you’re not sure why. Whether you are experiencing difficulties within your relationship, or find it difficult to form lasting relationships, counselling can give you the space you need to explore and understand these issues. I offer sex therapy and relationship/couple counselling from my base in Canterbury (Kent) and online.

If you are struggling with problems in your relationships, family and couples therapy can be an enormously helpful step to take. Perhaps you've experienced a loss or a change in circumstances that you are struggling to adjust to, or you've got stuck in unhelpful patterns of communication. If you'd like a safe space to get some fresh perspectives and start relating to each other in a way that allows the whole family to thrive, Lucy can help.
