About me and my therapy practice

I have worked alongside people suffering from anxiety and depression since 1996 and have been a psychodynamic counselling practitioner since 2005 which has increased my understanding regarding those who suffer severe anxiety and chronic depression. During these years I have worked primarily within the NHS Primary Care Trust and MIND mental health charity. Being a psychodynamic counsellor equips me to address the immediate issue and it's possible connections to previous distressing events.
