I am a transpersonal psychotherapist, counsellor and research psychologist with an extensive background in working with people who have had difficult or unintegrated psychedelic experiences. Owing to ethical codes around my practice as a psychotherapist in the UK, I should make it clear that I do not work with people whilst they are immediately under the influence of a psychedelic in my sessions. Instead the way that I work in my role is to offer once weekly psychotherapy, in which I use my own training and background (including many years studying vegetalismo) in order to help the client gain understanding and process whatever experience they may have had that they might perhaps find difficult, confusing or traumatic. Unfortunately as you may already know, many psychotherapists are pathologising, unaware or relatively naive when it comes to their understanding of psychedelics. They often misunderstand the various differences between the types of psychedelic experiences and sometimes owing to their own anxieties are not able to work effectively with people who have psychedelic experiences. I aim in contrast to offer advice and support from a non-judgemental position of familiarity, respect and deep study. In my work, I draw on a variety of modalities, including transpersonal, existential, psychodynamic and Jungian perspectives to assist people who work with me, and I may where it is appropriate employ techniques which draw on the creative imagination, visualisation and dream analysis. My credentials are: Post graduate professional diploma in transpersonal integrative psychotherapy and counselling (Centre for Counselling and Psychotherapy Education). MA (distinction) in transpersonal psychotherapy research (Northampton University). BSc (hons) distinction, psychology (Open University). Doctoral student in applied psychology.

The Process

STEP

1

After contacting by email we will have a first session to find out if we feel comfortable working together on a regular basis. If this first meeting feels right to you, we will arrange to meet at the same time each week.
STEP

2

I will then take a detailed psychological history and background which will give me information which will ensure that I am best able to treat you.
STEP

3

Following this we will continue to meet each week, I will use the relationship as a diagnostic tool in order to understand what might be occurring within your unconscious process. We will examine any issue that you wish to bring in, and help to integrate and process any difficult experience that might be leaving you feeling unsettled or anxious. My work tends to be open ended in order to afford the most flexibility to the process and to allow it to go where it needs to.
