Analytic Associates

Welcome

As a Jungian psychoanalyst I offer analysis and analytic psychotherapy to adults with a wide range of issues (see About My Practice). However, over time I have come to work increasingly with people with severe and chronic eating disorders who often come from backgrounds of complex trauma, have had multiple hospitalisations and have a history of being treatment-resistant.

This has led to a number of publications (see Publications) and numerous domestic and international lectures, seminars and workshops (see Examples of My Professional Work).


It has also led to extensive clinical supervision work in which I work with individuals or small groups of psychologists, social workers, psychotherapists, counsellors and other professionals who work in the mental health field seeing people with a broad range of issues.

.




Having trained with the Australian and New Zealand Society of Jungian Analysts I am a training analyst member of ANZSJA and a member of the International Association for Analytical Psychology. I am also a clinical member and supervisor with the Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia and, specific to my work in the field of eating disorders, I am an accredited member of the Australian and New Zealand Academy for Eating Disorders.

 

In 2003 I received a Ph.D. from the University of Sydney for my work on gender, identity and analytical psychology. A book based on this work was published by Brunner-Routledge in 2005 (see Publications).





Building on my analysis / psychoanalytic psychotherapy work, I also specialise in supervising clinicians who work with adults who have eating disorders.


I have been in private practice since 1993 and have been supervising other clinicians since 2001. My practice is on Sydney’s lower north shore and I also work with supervisees online or by telephone.
