He has been training counsellors since the middle of the first decade of this century for BACP trainings at a WPF affiliate and for seven years at University of Hertfordshire’s P.G. Dip and M.A. for the  Contemporary  Counselling  course.  He is also a visiting lecturer at the New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling  in  London. Previously he has taught on the War and Psychiatry MA at the Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London and has a PhD from Essex Centre for Psycho-analytic Studies about the evolution of Jungian theories on archetypes and the collective unconscious.
