About Edward

Edward Chatham is a psychodynamic psychotherapist and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). He works from London and supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression, along with attention‑deficit hyperactivity challenges. He explains difficulties plainly and helps people make sense of how feelings show up in daily life.

He draws on psychoanalytic ideas and Jungian concepts to look at patterns that repeat over time. That means paying attention to early relationships and recurring themes, and how these things affect current work and wellbeing. Sessions aim to uncover underlying conflicts and make them easier to talk about.

Edward has three years' experience working with adults across a range of mental health and neurodiversity-related concerns. He often focuses on how emotional difficulties affect relationships at home and at work, helping people recognise patterns and find clearer ways of coping.

His wider clinical interests include attachment and family of origin issues, adoption and foster care, abandonment, and challenges linked to addiction, eating, and body image. He also supports people dealing with divorce, separation and ageing matters.

Sessions are offered in English and Edward does not take international clients. If you are unsure whether his way of working suits you, the recommended next step is to use the Start Therapy button and complete the short matching questionnaire before booking.

How psychodynamic and Jungian ideas work online

Edward uses psychodynamic thinking to help people notice patterns in feelings, relationships and behaviour. This approach looks at repeated themes from the past and how they affect present day work and wellbeing, aiming to make those patterns easier to understand and discuss.

He also draws on Jungian concepts that pay attention to symbols, dreams and personal narratives. This helps people name inner conflicts and see new perspectives on identity, belonging and life choices, which can be useful for worries about self‑esteem and role at work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adapt the way sessions run to fit your goals and preferences. You and the therapist decide collaboratively which methods feel most useful as the work progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check‑ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer to talk from a familiar setting and who need flexibility around work and caring commitments.
