Male

I have worked as a psychotherapist for twenty five years, training initially in body and energy psychotherapy and later in other forms including Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) at Guy's Hospital. I am UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) Registered and as a result of wide experience in private practice; setting up and running a counselling service for a local MIND; work with Employee Assistance Programmes with people sent from their work settings (e.g., traumatised by armed robberies and other critical incidents). I have a wide range of experience of many client groups and settings and issues. I have worked with some psychiatric issues and personality disorders, including borderline personality disorder and have extensive experience of working with people who have been sexually abused as children. This has given me an interest in dissociation, somatic symptoms, working with body processes and symptoms and in sexuality and sexual behaviour. Alongside this I have an interest in spirituality, mindfulness, and meditation and for the last ten years have run tantra workshops combining sexuality and spirituality with my wife.
