About me

In my practice I see people for a wide range of reasons. These include those seeking to explore questions of love, sexuality, the body, relationships, family, and identity. I also see people experiencing depression, anxiety, psychosis, addictions, compulsive thoughts and behaviours, and eating disorders.

My approach to individual therapy

Psychoanalysis is a type of talking therapy which values the singularity of each individual. Through an in-depth and detailed elaboration of one's experience, it offers a unique opportunity to confront the specific nature of one's suffering. This process is not always easy, however can lead to the alleviation of difficult symptoms, changes in relationships, or a reorientation of ones life.

Our first individual session

The initial consultation is an opportunity to speak about why one is seeking therapy. It will involve trying to articulate the nature of your suffering, however it will be supported by questions and interventions from me. It offers a chance to assess if this type of psychotherapy feels right, and to decide if one wishes to continue.
