About Edward
Edward Chatham is a psychodynamic psychotherapist based in London. He is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience supporting adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety and related concerns. He writes plainly and listens carefully to help people name what matters to them.
Edward draws on ideas from psychoanalytic and Jungian thought to understand patterns that repeat in a person's life.
Background and approach
He uses these perspectives to help clients see how past experiences shape current feelings and relationships. Sessions focus on making those links clearer and more manageable. Clients often bring worries about stress, low self-esteem, ADHD and difficulties that come from abandonment or family of origin issues.
He also talks through concerns about addiction, eating and body image, and the effects of separation or divorce. The work is calm and reflective, and aims to make small, steady changes. Edward tailors the pace and focus to each person.
Some people use sessions to process painful memories, while others want practical ways to cope day-to-day. He will help a client choose what to concentrate on and how to measure progress. He offers online sessions by video, phone, live chat or messaging.
Sessions are arranged through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability.

Online support
Psychoanalytic and Jungian concepts are also used to explore deeper themes and meaning in a person's life. That can help when someone feels empty, disconnected or stuck in repeating choices. These methods pay attention to dreams, symbolism and long-term patterns as part of therapy.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they decide whether to focus on understanding patterns, practical coping, or a mix of both, and revise the plan as work progresses.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break from work. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, written reflection and people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy around daily life and differing needs.
