Psychodynamic Psychotherapy works with the unconscious and is a deep and thorough way to help clients with their difficulties. Every client is unique, and the work we do together allows for and celebrates difference, while providing the time, space and compassion needed for change. Your sessions will give you the opportunity to communicate what you may have struggled to talk about in the past, and help you to recognise and understand unwanted behaviour and patterns of thought. ​

​

We will be exploring your early life and memories, thinking together about how those experiences and the echoes of them shape and, at times, distort the present. This is done through what is essentially a process of deep listening and learning, for both therapist and client. I offer serious and empathetic attention, alert to the details of what makes each person uniquely who they are.

​

Psychodynamic Psychotherapy evolved from Psychoanalysis, and the main difference between them is that psychodynamic therapists see clients once or twice a week rather than the more intense 3-5 times weekly offered by psychoanalysts. Both use techniques introduced by Freud, Winnicott and Klein, which have been adapted through many years of research and experience to form a modern practice.
