Psychotherapy offers a space in which recurring patterns, emotional tensions, and relational difficulties can gradually come into clearer view. ‘Living the question’ (R.M Rilke) becomes the medium for change.

Self, Other, Environment are central to how I understand our experience.

.

SELF /:

“The real edge is between life & more life, memory and wish.” Stanley Plumly. ‘The abrupt edge’ 1986

Being:

I have extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, addiction, self-sabotage and other expressions of dysregulation. Regulating in crisis (personal, with other & corporate) has been a feature of my practice for many years.

Becoming:

Struggles to move beyond patterns of stuckness, to inhabit a sense of self and then ‘staying’ is central to our work together. We process this together in relational holding.

My practice is particularly concerned with questions of boundary, identity, life-stage & meaning, differentiation in emotional/familial inheritance, and the ways relational and templated structures continue to shape inner life long after they have been normalised.

OTHER /FAMILY:

 / CLIENTS IN FAMILY OFFICE - BUSINESS

“It has always seemed to me that I had to answer questions which fate had posed to my forefathers, and which had not yet been answered, or as if I had to complete, or perhaps continue, things which previous ages had left unfinished” Carl Jung. 1962

Clients within family office and family business environments often carry forms of responsibility, loyalty, and psychological pressure that are difficult to articulate within conventional therapeutic settings.

This dedicated relational space has emerged naturally from observing the complex interplay between family relationships, business responsibilities, and the psychological demands of stewardship across generations.

The capacity to build healthy adult relationships often depends upon our ability to establish a clear sense of self beyond the family of origin. When this process has been constrained, new relationships may become shaped by old patterns rather than present realities.

My work provides a different experience of being and becoming (M. Heidegger), one that supports the gradual formation of a more differentiated sense of self, separate from inherited roles, expectations, and relational entanglements.

Particular attention is given to identity formation within complex family and organisational systems, where personal development can become restricted by loyalty structures, emotional dependency, visibility, succession dynamics, or multigenerational patterns of adaptation.

ENVIRONMENT / CULTURE:

Identity Within Public and Cultural Systems

Experience working with clients in artistry fields, professional sport (post-exiting) and visible public roles, where identity, performance, and external expectation often become deeply intertwined in a sense of Self.

This offering was not designed as a specialism so much as discovered through practice. Over time, clients working within these worlds repeatedly brought similar psychological questions and emotional struggles, allowing a distinct relational space to emerge naturally.

Supporting self-regulation for individuals in the public eye experiencing a crisis and movements towards containment is often central to my work.

Confidentiality and Security

Confidentiality & ethical practice supports the container of our space. Both in what is explored & existence of the relationship and meeting. I work with your psychological and emotional process, thus no notes are taken or stored. This includes handwritten, or any AI notetakers or transcribing tools (which I ask you also not to use).

Trust is another cornerstone of the work, but the use of a NDA can be discussed.

In-person consultations are available by arrangement in a private space in Barcelona, Spain for clients travelling internationally. On-site consultations are available by arrangement.

I am insured & a member of a professional psychotherapy membership organisation based in the UK & abide by their code of ethics.

All email communication is encrypted, and the use of a private, end-to-end encrypted video platform is offered.

I do not engage in interviews, media appearances, or any form of publicity, nor do I undertake public or academic writing in the field of psychotherapy. My practice is focussed solely on fostering a boundaried, ethical, and confidential therapeutic space dedicated to your regulation and growth.
