Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy offers an opportunity to explore in depth any concerns or difficulties, distress or conflict, as well as personal strengths, and to arrive at lasting change: greater insight, clearer choices, improved self confidence and relationships. It can be especially useful at helping resolve complex or recurring problems or long term difficulties.

This therapy is based on a wide range of psychoanalytic theory concerned with the role of the unconscious and early life experience and relationships on current emotions and behaviour. The work moves between consideration of early experience, current life situation, and the ongoing therapeutic relationship.

Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy can be for a short term or open ended. Sessions are for 50 minutes, at a minimum of once a week, but can be more frequent. My fees are adaptable to the person's ability to pay, reduced for students.

My training began with a BA in Psychology and a MSW from McGill University in Montreal, followed by a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling from one of the major training organizations in the UK, WPF Psychotherapy and Counselling, together with the University of Surrey. This led to my accreditation with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). I later went on to complete a lengthy psychoanalytic training in London, which included personal analysis, and was admitted to the Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy Section of the UKCP (United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy).

While in London I worked for a number of years as a Psychotherapist in the NHS, in mental health departments as well as women's health services, while continuing with my private work. I moved to Paris and established a practice here 8 years ago. You are welcome to contact me if you have any questions, to discuss your situation or to set up an initial consultation.
