Background
Born in Manchester in England. Resident of Australia over 25 years. Originally worked as hospital pharmacist, then spells in retail, agricultural and veterinary pharmacy, and research.
I subsequently worked in social work and teaching before entering clinical psychology in 1980. Since then I have worked in prisons for six years, general and psychiatric hospitals for six years, university counselling service one year, drug and alcohol clinics for ten years.
I have operated a private psychotherapy practice for over 20 years. Also, I work as a consultant to Ngala Hospital, Racing and Wagering WA, Perth Human Sexuality Centre, the WA Police and the Commonwealth Department of Defence.
How and with whom I work
I work with teenagers, adult individuals, couples and families. I offer supervision to other professionals. I teach occasional lectures, seminars and workshops. I have studied Jungian psychology extensively and have worked with Robert Johnson in San Diego. Hence my style is eclectic and integrative with roots in Gestalt/redecision as well as transference based emotional relearning.
I have travelled India extensively and am familiar with many of its spiritual traditions, currently focusing on Advaita. This, too, informs the context of my work. I am bound by the ethics of my various professional memberships. Confidentiality is limited in cases of proximate harm to self or others. The I - Thou relationship with its "I'm OK- you're OK" basis is central to Transactional Analysis philosophy and my work.
