Observations from my clinical practice

You may be overwhelmed by the variety of therapies available. Psychoanalytic psychotherapy focuses on the question, what is the subconscious doing? If you are new to all this, that may sound very strange.

Below are some common conditions I come across in my practice. While I make no claims for the originality of some of these descriptions, hopefully you will glean some sense of how my psychoanalytic perspective may differ from other approaches.

These thoughts do not refer to any individual case and nor do they represent all the issues I work with. Every patient is unique and I support and collaborate with everyone I see on that basis.

Clinical areas I work in

Abandonment issues | anger | anxiety | attaining goals | bereavement | Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) | controlling behaviours | depression | relationships difficulties | dissociation | domestic violence | family problems | guilt | identity development | issues relating to sexuality | loneliness | low self-esteem | Narcissistic Personality Disorder | obsessional thinking and behaviours | Psychosis | psychological abuse | Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) | relationship difficulties | sexual abuse | shame | social anxiety | stress at work | suicidal ideation | psychological and emotional abuse
