Training and
experience
I trained as a clinical psychologist at the University of Natal, and later completed a doctorate (PhD) on the management of chronic pain and illness. I have had further training in psychotherapy in Germany and the USA. I was professor and director of training in Clinical Psychology at the Universities of Natal/KwaZulu-Natal, and practiced part-time as a clinical psychologist. I am now in full-time practice in Pietermaritzburg.
Collaborative International Research
In addition to working as a psychotherapist I am involved in collaborative international research projects on HIV, men and masculinity, and spirituality and psychology.
A Range of Interests
I have a range of interests in psychology and psychotherapy, and have practiced and taught many psychological methods. I am especially interested in how approaches such as psychoanalysis help us come to a deeper understanding of ourselves and others, and have a particular interest in the work of Carl Jung. But I also have considerable experience in other methods such as cognitive behaviour therapy.
