Paul Salvage

I am Paul Salvage and I am an experienced Psychodynamic Psychotherapist registered with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy, (UKCP).

I offer individual psychotherapy to Adults, (18+) and Adolescents, (16-25).

Clients seek my help for many reasons, from feeling that life is literally unbearable to a vague sense of unease.

I work with depression and anxiety and other emotional difficulties, such as anger, jealousy, regret, suicidal thoughts, sexual issues, identity and feeling stuck.

My approach is grounded in analytic theory, although I am also influenced and have trained in Mindfulness, Attachment and trauma based approaches.

What is Analytic Psychotherapy?

Psychodynamic and Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis all belong to the same school of thought and are based on the belief that through our experiences we create values, beliefs and stories about ourselves that often remain outside of our immediate conscious awareness. These can lead to symptoms such as anxiety, depression, sabotaging of self, careers and relationships.

I work to facilitate a safe, supportive and consistent environment where self-exploration can be fostered to explore these thoughts, emotions and patterns. I will work with you to carefully unpick and process these. I believe through this, psychotherapy can lead to increased freedom, choice and relief from distressing experiences.

Below you can view a video interview in which I demystify psychoanalytic psychotherapy:

Clinical Background

I have worked extensively with adults with anxiety and depression, addiction, anger, relational and family issues, including, loss, separation and parenting issues. I have also worked with clients in both the public and private sector and the creative industries around work stress. I operate an ethical practice which is anti-discriminatory and am LGBT and neurodiversity affirmative.

Adolescents 16-25

Since training I have worked with young adults in both a University setting and for Brighton Council supporting young people in crisis. I was also one of the founders of a rites of passage mentoring scheme for young men and have worked as a family therapist for the youth offending service.
