Adolescent & Adult Psychodynamic Therapist
Andi works with adolescents and adults, offering a reflective and supportive space to explore your inner world. Therapy is your time and space to use in a way that feels right for you. Andi aims to provide a non-judgemental environment where collaboratively we can think together about thoughts, feelings and experiences that may feel overwhelming, confusing or difficult to put into words. Andi’s approach is psychodynamic and psychoanalytically informed, which means in sessions we may explore recurring themes in your life and relationships. You are in the driving seat of the process, and she is alongside you. Sessions move at a pace that feels manageable, allowing space for reflection and understanding to develop over time. Andi has a particular interest in the role of creativity and imagery in the therapeutic process. Dreams, metaphors, music and moments of emotional resonance can provide meaningful ways of approaching the unconscious and understanding aspects of our inner world and daily life experiences that can be difficult to express directly.
Before training as a therapist Andi worked in the creative industries and has been a freelancer for over twenty years. This work often involved high-pressure environments and has given her experience of navigating demanding professional contexts and supporting people through moments of intensity, instability and change. She has also worked as a lecturer and tutor, with experience across a range of educational settings. This has given her an understanding of the emotional and developmental challenges that can arise during adolescence, and an appreciation of the wider context of the ever changing world that young people are navigating. In her therapeutic work Andi has experience supporting clients with a range of difficulties including addiction, substance misuse, depression, grief, self-harm, abuse, anxiety and trauma.
Andi holds an MA in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy from University of Essex and is a member of the BACP.
