Catherine is a psychoanalytic psychotherapist with many years experience working with adolescents and adults through their trauma, specialising in short term therapy. She will help you to navigate and overcome such complex issues as childhood trauma (sexual and emotional), gender identity, low self esteem, and chronic depression. Catherine firmly believes that present day symptoms symbolise past events that for whatever reason could not be processed at the time. With care and in your therapeutic alliance, the aim of therapy is to explore the unconscious, unlock the meaning behind the symptom, so that you can develop a deeper understanding and be free to move beyond the symptom into full self-agency becoming fully self-realised. In therapy relationships will be explored: how the client relates to others in the past, to the therapist in the present and to the evolving future self.
