Biography

I am a Psychodynamic therapist in private practice experienced in working with clients who are or have been psychotic. Having worked at The Next Chapter, a refuge for women fleeing life-threatening domestic violence, I am an expert in violence, trauma, self-harm addiction and eating disorders. I am currently doing a professional doctorate to research the ways in which Psychodynamic therapy may help patients prone to psychosis and whether the approach would benefit from adaptations compared to established working practices with neurotic clients.
