Tel: 01736 788835

MSc (Family Therapy); PhD. UKCP Registered Systemic Family Psychotherapist. I have many years experience of work with children, adolescents and families, mostly in mental health settings (NHS). My private practice has focused on couples and families, particularly where relationships are problematic, and this fits well with my systemic theoretical approach. I am prepared to see individuals, but my main contribution is in work with families and couples. A session is likely to be 1 – 1 1/2 hours. I offer a collaborative approach and aim to work flexibly with as few sessions as possible, although these may be spread over a significant period of time – 6 sessions over 6 months is typical. (F)

 

* Fees: £60 per session (negotiable according to circumstances)

Tel: 01752 265892

My qualifications are:  Medical: BM, BCh, MA.

Diploma in Clinical Psychotherapy (Cognitive Analytic Therapy), Guy’s, Kings and St Thomas’ Hospital. Accredited by UKCP and ACAT (Association of Cognitive Analytic Therapy).

Special interests: depression and anxiety, relationship difficulties, childhood trauma, bereavement. Wide experience in support of cancer patients and terminal illness.

Theoretical approach: CAT is a brief (16-24 sessions) and highly collaborative therapy. The approach is psychodynamic. Childhood relationship and experience explored in detail. Family tree to 4 generations explored as is a detailed lifeline. The aim is to explore maladaptive patterns of current behaviour and seek their roots in childhood experience. The 3 phases of CAT are: (1) reformulation (2) recognition and (3) revision.  Rather than end the therapy I prefer to see people at increasing intervals until they are ready to finish.

I have a very limited experience or training in couple therapy.  (F)
