Grief

Sometimes we can all feel a little bit stuck, unfocussed, tired a lot of the time or just not like our usual self. 

I can see you face-to-face at my peaceful therapy room in my home in Brighton, about two minutes walk from London Road (Brighton) Station. I also offer a small number of face-to face evening, or weekend morning appointments from a therapy practise in Kemp Town. Alternatively I can offer appointments via Zoom.

My own journey to finding a healthy lifestyle has given me insight into the many challenges one encounters. This enables me to bring a high level of empathy, respect, and understanding.

I am a HG Psychotherapist working in Jersey in the Channel Islands. Mental health issues can present in many different ways. The most common issues I see are:

I trained and worked as a medical doctor in the NHS for over the past 23 years, specialising as a GP.  I was also an academic researcher and Senior Clinical Lecturer at the University of Aberdeen where I taught mental health to senior medical students. I have extensive and varied experience of working with a wide range of mental health problems in a variety of settings within the NHS including general practice, accident and emergency departments, and in psychiatric departments. I have experience of mild psychological distress to severe debilitating mental health crises. I am now trained and currently working as a psychotherapist

Using the Human Givans principles and approach I offer practical, solution focused, and effective therapy that draws on the clients own resources to explore and address any unmet emotional needs an

My consultation rooms are in an old farmhouse in Argentière, at the top of the Chamonix valley in France.

My practice in Chamonix has three main areas:

** Currently not taking on new clients ** - If you are affected by anxiety, depression, trauma, sleep or eating difficulties, self-harm, grief, anger or addiction then I can help. If you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed, perhaps experiencing challenges at work or within relationships, I can help. If you are struggling with concentration or academic or performance anxiety, I can help.

I have worked in NW London with young people in a charity I co-founded and later on with the ministry of defence.
