About me
Hello and welcome: I am a trained psychoanalyst whereby I work with your unconscious and in so doing I am able to get to the 'root' of your symptom[s] so that there is no return of the problem
In addition to my work with anxiety, depression and other symptoms I specialize in showing clients how to use ANGER in a healthy way. In stead of suppressing your anger, which is dangerous for the autoimmune system, I show clients how to use their anger in a friendly and caring manner. This takes time and practice however the results are quite rewarding for the enhancement of marital and couples relationships. In addition I also work with autoimmune disease whereby I can stop the progression and often reverse the problem. In addition to this I have had success with stopping the progression of, and sometimes reversing, cancer formations.
