I am a Gestalt Psychotherapist with background training & experience in Bodymind therapy. I offer Individual or Group Gestalt Therapy Online & in London, UK (London near Old Street, EC1, N1).
Currently I am only available for Online (video, audio) sessions.
I first qualified in 1984 and have been working with clients in Individual Therapy for over 37 years. The Individual Gestalt Therapy work I offer includes both ongoing longer term therapy ( Psychotherapy ) and short term therapy ( counselling ).
I have been facilitating Experiential / Gestalt therapy groups for over 30 years, both privately and for various training courses. Currently I facilitate an ongoing online Gestalt therapy group, which has been running since February 2022. Until then I facilitated an ongoing Gestalt therapy group in Central London. This group met weekly (40+ weeks per year) for over 15 years.
You can find some information about my approach to therapy / psychotherapy in the "What is Gestalt Therapy ?" section of the website.
