Psychotherapy, Analysis and Supervision
I am a Jungian Analyst/Analytical Psychologist and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist, registered with the IAAP, BPC and UKCP. I have nearly thirty years' clinical experience as a therapist.
I offer psychotherapy, analysis and supervision to individuals in the Sussex/Surrey area. My consulting room is in Horsham in a quiet location on the edge of St. Leonard's Forest .
I see therapy as a process in which together we seek to create a relationship in which all manner of troubling questions about the mind, body and soul can be explored in a spirit of curiosity, openness and honesty.
I have a long standing interest in the work of Swiss psychiatrist and psychotherapist Carl Jung and I am especially influenced by his ideas. This dates back to 1995 when, in mid-life, at a time of personal crisis, I looked for a therapist and found myself with a Jungian Analyst. Like Jung, I believe that crises are a calling for psychological development.
My practice is grounded in my own long and intensive personal analysis.
My clinical work In recent years with ex-boarders has led to a particular interest in the long term emotional and psychological impact of sending children away at an early age into the care of an institution in the belief that it will be the ‘making of them’.
I am also a writer.
I have contributed a chapter to a new book 'The Un-Making of Them: Clinical Reflections on Boarding School Syndrome', edited by Nick Duffell and published by Routledge in April 2025. The title of my chapter is 'English Landscape: an archetypal perspective on the ex-boarder'.
I have completed a two year Jungian Infant Observation Course. My paper, 'Birds, Beasts and Babies - Notes from an Infant Observation', won the Roszika Parker prize in 2013 and was published in the British Journal of Psychotherapy in 2014.
My paper, 'The Winnowing Way - Infant Observation with Soul in Mind', was published in Harvest, the journal of the C.G. Jung Club London, in 2021.
I have been reading Jung's Red Book with The Circle of Analytical Psychology since September 2022.
