Edward Chatham

Edward Chatham is a psychodynamic psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He has three years' practice and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and ADHD. He also supports people concerned about family relationships and life direction. He blends ideas from psychoanalytic and Jungian theories to look at patterns that repeat in daily life. Sessions often focus on how past experiences shape current reactions. He pays attention to how thoughts and feelings show up in relationships at home and at work. People bring a wide range of issues to his work. These include abandonment, attachment concerns, adoption and foster care histories, and family of origin problems. He also sees people dealing with body image, eating difficulties, substance use, and the emotional impact of divorce or separation. Edward has experience with personality-related concerns, including dependent or antisocial patterns. He works with neurodivergent clients to understand how differences affect everyday functioning and relationships. He aims to make sense of the patterns that keep getting in the way. Sessions are grounded in talking and reflecting rather than advice giving. He helps people notice repeated themes, try new ways of responding, and consider what matters next.

How his psychodynamic work translates to online counselling

Psychodynamic work explores the patterns that shape how people think, feel and relate. In practice this means talking about recurring feelings, important relationships, and early influences to understand why certain situations feel stuck. This approach can help with depression, anxiety, identity questions and relationship problems by making patterns clearer and opening small options for change.

Psychoanalytic ideas examine unconscious themes that influence daily choices. That often involves noticing repeated reactions and connections between past and present. Jungian-influenced work pays attention to symbols and personal meaning, which can be useful when someone is questioning life purpose or feeling empty.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Edward will collaborate with each person to decide whether a more exploratory psychodynamic focus or a Jungian lens is most useful for their goals and preferences. He adjusts how sessions proceed based on what the client wants to address and how they respond to the process.
