About Edward

Edward Chatham is a psychodynamic psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and he works with adults who are coping with depression, anxiety and issues linked to neurodivergence. He helps people who are struggling with self-esteem and stress, and those navigating family-related difficulties.

He draws on both psychoanalytic and Jungian ideas to understand patterns that repeat in relationships and everyday life.

Background and approach

In sessions he helps clients notice long-standing feelings and recurring reactions, and then use that insight to make different choices. The focus is practical - talking through what matters now while linking it to past experience when that is helpful. Edward has three years' experience working with adults across a range of concerns.

He supports people dealing with ADHD, attachment difficulties and issues that come from adoption or fostering. He also works with problems such as eating-related issues, substance use, grief and emptiness. Therapy sessions are conversational and reflective.

Edward aims to create space to make sense of painful feelings, to spot unhelpful patterns and to try small changes. He offers sessions using video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life.

How psychodynamic ideas translate to online therapy

Psychodynamic work explores recurring feelings and relationship patterns that shape a person’s life. In practice this means gently mapping how past experiences influence present reactions, and using that awareness to try different responses. This approach often helps with depression, anxiety and long-standing relationship difficulties.

Psychoanalytic and Jungian perspectives add ways of thinking about the unconscious material that shows up in sessions. Psychoanalytic ideas look at early patterns and repeating themes, while Jungian thinking pays attention to symbols, inner narratives and life stages. Both can help people make sense of feelings like emptiness, attachment worries or issues linked to adoption and foster care.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then agree a way of working together. That might mean quieter reflective conversations, more focused problem-solving, or blending different ideas to suit the person's needs.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet face to face when they prefer full interaction. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can suit short check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing, written contact for those who find that easier to fit into daily life. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt each format to match timetables and comfort, making therapy more accessible.
