Lee Watkins, Psychotherapist in Bristol ,

In my experience, psychotherapy offers a unique type of one-to-one relationship. It broadly aims to explore, understand, and heal the emotional and psychological difficulties that life may have brought you. 

I have eight years of experience in my practice, in which I endeavour to cultivate an open, curious and welcoming environment. I believe strongly that no two people are the same, and that the therapeutic process should reflect this by being creative and collaborative, naturally shifting and taking form over time.

I practice as an integrative psychotherapist: This means that I draw upon a broad spectrum of therapeutic approaches, including psychodynamic theories (e.g. Jungian/Kleinian) and relational and humanistic styles. Between them, these different approaches suggest that there is a time and place for both insight and understanding (which helps to frame things for ourselves), and a more visceral, immediate experience of simply being cared for and heard. 

I have particular interest and experience in working with trauma, with a special interest in fantasy, dreams, myth and dissociation. I also value somatic approaches, which I believe are a vital means by which one can ground and find rest in one's embodied self, here-and-now. 

I am a UKCP- registered psychotherapist and adhere to the UKCP ethical framework.

I work from The Practice Rooms in Southville, Bristol. 

While I normatively work in-person, I am able to offer sessions remotely, via video or voice call.
