ALAN BORE
Member of Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP)
Registered with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC)
Alan has 30 years of experience in private practice and managing teams in statutory services. He has a particular interest in eating disorders, relationships, and sexual compulsivity, and works with both individuals and couples – always taking care to create a warm, welcoming environment for clients. His work uses active imagination, symbolism, metaphor, and dream imagery as a way of accessing the unconscious and bringing about meaningful change. Alan believes that meditation and soul work is also a powerful way of reaching one’s potential and spiritual path.
PHIL JOSLIN
Member of Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), International Association for Analytical Psychology (IAAP) and the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC)
Phil has almost 35 years of experience in private practice and managing teams in statutory services.
A former seminarian, Philip has spent all his life in contemplation. At the same time he is very much a man of the world. If you tried to pin him down as anything other than a compassionate human being who is able to help the people who come to him for Jungian analysis to live with their own complexity and all the inner and external slings and arrows of outrageous fortune which beset them, you would be on a hiding to nothing. As a clinician he is able both to empathise and to challenge in helping troubled and lost to find themselves.

Shannon has 30 years of experience of working with eating disorders.

NANCY RAMKISSUN

Nancy works in an integrative way, incorporating her training, intuition and personal experience of self-enquiry and development. Using varied approaches and creative tools when appropriate. Creating a safe, calm space where each individual is supported in their journeys of recovery, healing and growth. Working collaboratively, and with empathy within each relationship is fundamental to Nancy.

JANINE FULLER
Registered Member of UKCP and College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists (COSRT). Janine helps clients explore a wide range of issues and life circumstances, including relationship and sexual difficulties, anxiety, addiction, stress, difficulties managing overwhelming thoughts and feelings, overeating, loss, and self-esteem issues. Some clients specifically choose to come to therapy to enrich their lives: perhaps by developing purpose or deepening their spiritual understanding. Most of our work together will involve talking therapy, although some clients find it helpful to work creatively with drawings, imagery, dreams, bodywork, sand trays or visualisation. Regardless of your preference, our work will help you to understand what is preventing you from leading a vibrant and resilient life.

TANYA GARRITY
Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
Tanya is a sensitive, kind and creative psychotherapist who believes the relationship is an essential aspect of therapy. Tanya creates a sense of calm and stability promoting self-awareness, acceptance, vulnerability and healing.
Tanya is experienced working with trauma however that may manifest itself (ie. addictions, eating disorders, self-harm, depression, anxiety, shame...) and recognises it is not uncommon for people’s lives to unravel in a variety of painful ways and unhelpful coping strategies that can negatively impact daily life. Tanya works with curiosity and patience with individuals, families and young people, at their pace, to strengthen the relationship with themselves.
Tanya can work creatively with clients who may feel safer working with images and or play rather than talking more directly about their feelings to gain insight.
Tanya trained at The University of Greenwich in Integrative Counselling and has worked at Lifeworks a residential treatment facility for emotional and psychological disorders, at The Place 2 Be in London as a play therapist and as part of Surrey's Early Help team holistically supporting families with complex and multiple needs.

LAURA KYPRE
Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
“Every time you don’t follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness”, Shakti Gawain.
Laura believes that to truly enjoy life we have to set ourselves free, from messages received in our pasts that no longer serve us and that actually, may, deaden us. The first steps of change are awareness, which can sometimes look like a break down, burnout, stress, fatigue, a message from the body to say change is required or a spiritual awakening that something is wrong, you are not on the right path perhaps.
If you are struggling with eating, anxiety, intrusive thoughts, low self-esteem, difficulty in relationships or a sense that something isn’t quite right then Laura will work with you in a collaborative style, guiding you through difficult times, towards feeling alive and rested.
Laura trained at The University of Greenwich in a psychodynamic modality, is a member with the BACP and previously worked at The Priory. Laura often works long term building a trusting and
safe therapeutic relationship to get to the root cause of your issue.
