About Edward

Edward Chatham is a psychodynamic psychotherapist who combines psychoanalytic and Jungian ideas to help people understand recurring patterns in their lives. He works with adults facing anxiety, depression and issues with self‑esteem. Edward is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practises in the United Kingdom.

He focuses on how emotional difficulties and neurodivergence affect relationships at home and at work. Sessions often involve looking at long‑standing feelings and behaviours that keep causing the same problems. Edward aims to help people recognise those patterns and make different choices.

People come to him with concerns such as stress, ADHD, family of origin worries, abandonment, adoption and foster care matters, and separation after divorce. He also works with issues around body image, addiction, eating difficulties and feelings of emptiness. The approach is reflective and concerned with meaning as well as practical change.

With three years' experience, he balances listening with gentle interpretation. Therapy can include talking about past experiences and how they link to present difficulties. Edward encourages curiosity about feelings and relationships while keeping the conversation straightforward.

Sessions are delivered from his London base and conducted in English. Prospective clients are asked to use the site matching process to start therapy and to schedule according to availability. Costs vary and are managed through a cancellable subscription model.

How psychodynamic ideas translate to online therapy

Psychodynamic work looks at how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviour. It often uses talking and reflection to uncover repeated patterns that show up in relationships and self‑image. This approach can help with anxiety, depression and persistent relational difficulties.

Jungian ideas bring attention to meaningful symbols, dreams and personal narratives. In therapy this can mean exploring personal stories and themes that recur across a person's life, helping them find new ways of understanding themselves and their choices.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and agree a plan with the client. That decision is collaborative and based on the person's needs, goals and preferences rather than imposed from the start.

Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check‑ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer talking without being on camera or who need a quieter way to attend during a work break.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
