I am very passionate about what I do. It goes beyond a theoretical interest to a genuine desire to work with people towards their goals and dreams, and immense satisfaction when they achieve them.
Whether you desire an improved mental state and more satisfying life, or more satisfying relationship or sex life, or it may be a better self-understanding and a tool belt for tackling life's issues, I'm excited and interested to work with you.
I have completed four degrees (including a Masters and PhD in eating disorders) and the Post-Graduate Diploma in Clinical Psychology.
During my studies I became very interested in Binge Eating Disorder and Bulimia. I completed my Masters and PhD by developing a treatment programme for Binge Eating Disorder, testing whether it worked, and writing up the results. I have written various journal articles on eating disorders (http://www2.hawaii.edu/~jlatner/downloads/pubs/Clyne2010.pdf), including one in the International Journal of Eating Disorders (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/eat.20465/abstract).
If you would like more information on the success of the treatment programme, please e-mail me on [email protected]. If you are wondering if you might have binge eating disorder, please watch this excellent summary on the Breakfast Show http://tvnz.co.nz/breakfast-news/you-binge-eater-dieting-may-not-answer-video-6447617
I worked in Invercargill for two and a half years, and I have worked in Nelson for over a decade. My special interests include eating disorders, anxiety disorders (post-traumatic stress disorder resulting from sexual abuse or other traumas, generalised anxiety disorder (worrying), obsessive compulsive disorder, social phobia and panic attacks), mood disorders (depression and bipolar disorders), and ADHD (including ADHD assessments).
I have also trained as a sex therapist and I have a special interest in sexual dysfunctions and issues, as well as issues of sexuality (please see my other website http://www.sextherapynelson.co.nz/). I have just completed training in Gottman therapy for couples (Gottman Couples Therapy Level 1: Bridging the Couple Chasm, and Level 2: Assessment, intervention and co-morbidities).
I am also a partner at Psychology Associates Nelson - please see our website www.psychologyassociatesnelson.co.nz/
