Jonathan Smith Therapy
Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy in Maidstone, Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge or remotely via video call nationwide. I am a qualified and insured Psychodynamic Counsellor and Psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I offer long and short-term Psychodynamic therapy on a weekly basis for a range of issues including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, addiction, bereavement, loss, self-harm, abuse, trauma, stress, relationships and issues in the workplace.
Anxiety and depression can manifest in many different ways: difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite, lack of enjoyment in favoured activities, lessening attention span, loss or lack of identity, difficulty in clear thought or intrusive thoughts to name just a few. At times it's not clear why we feel the way we do: perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed or empty, or are engaging in patterns of behaviour which are negatively affecting your life. Conversely you may be all too aware of events or relationships which have, or are affecting your mental wellbeing and wish to explore these in a supportive and nurturing environment. The therapy I offer focuses on the exploration of ourselves, who we are, what we have experienced, what we have survived. The relationship we have with ourselves is crucial to our happiness and sense of fulfilment, when we are not well connected to ourselves we can feel like nothing quite satisfies us. Through therapy we aim to find a version of ourselves which we are happy with and shake off the expectations and values that have been imposed on us.
