Gillian | Psychodynamic Therapist PGDip MBACP
Introduction
Welcome to my practice. I’m Gillian, a qualified Psychodynamic therapist. I'm interested in getting to the root of the problem, rather than just a quick fix. I believe that therapy takes time and done properly should be work, but very rewarding work.
I have a strong track record for helping my clients to understand themselves better and to address the emotional stress and challenges they are facing. Together, we will get to the root the issues that are affecting you.
Therapy can be an incredibly powerful way to reconnect with yourself, improve your mental health and wellbeing and take back control of your life.
These are the main issues I can help you with - relationship/intimacy issues, bereavement, past trauma/childhood issues, depression, anxiety, self-confidence.
During our initial sessions, I hope to learn more about you and where these issues stem from. We will then work collaboratively to get your life back on track.
I am an experienced and empathetic Therapist with particular expertise in helping resolve complex relationship issues, including:
- past trauma/childhood issues
- dealing with the emotional trauma of abusive relationships (both physical and emotional)
- navigating relationship issues - whether with your parents, partner, friends
- helping build self esteem and restore the most important relationship you have, with yourself
I am passionate about what I do and believe that good therapy can deliver significant improvements to people and their lives.
Your session with me will be open-ended and we go at your pace, working together to understand your feelings and behaviours.
Have you already thought of 5 reasons not to go ahead and try the therapy you've wanted for yourself?

Specialisations and Expertises
The type of therapy I offer is open-ended, meaning there is no end point to the therapy.Therefore, how long you need, is really an individual decision.
