My particular interests are cross-cultural issues and multilingualism, psychotherapy of the body and embodiment, psychotic and borderline conditions and the maternal. I am looking to expand my clinical supervision work with an emphasis on cross-culturally mindful supervision. I would describe the way I work as relational, phenomenological and selectively informed by psychoanalytic ideas

I am an existential psychotherapist, chartered counselling psychologist and registered supervisor, and I see private clients in central Bristol close to Clifton, Cotham and the City Centre. I  lecture in social and ethical issues, psychotherapeutic practice, and supervise doctoral students at the New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling in London, where I'm also the clinical practice coordinator.

I have experience from a wide range of settings and clients, and have set up the St Matthias Park Pupil Referral Unit counselling service. I'm also active in research, and have presented and published my work at the Society of Psychotherapy, British Psychological Society, the Hermeneutic Journal and Society of Existential Analysis. I'm a member of the reader panel of Existential Analysis, the journal of the Society for Existential Analysis, and also sit on the ethics board for NSPC/Middlesex University. 

I work in an existential phenomenological way, yet my first degrees were in cbt and psychodynamic work and I have also done training in core process psychotherapy. I'm a doctor of existential counselling psychology and psychotherapy.

Damian White MSW, Advanced Dip Existential Counselling and Psychotherapy, PG.Dip Cognitive Psychotherapy, PG.Dip Counselling

Damian White

Damian White is an individual and group psychotherapist. He trained in Humanistic counselling at the University of Brighton before specialising as an Existential Psychotherapist at Regent's College, London and as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist at the University of Brighton. He is a registered member of both UKCP and BABCP.

Damian's interest in psychotherapy emerged from his experiences as an international humanitarian worker in Africa and his training for a Masters in Social Work. The latter included extensive individual and group work experience in a residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre. He then spent nine years working in an NHS clinical and counselling psychology unit and a specialist trauma unit providing both short and long term psychotherapy. Damian currently works in private practice in both London and Brighton where he also runs a Divorce Support Group.

In addition to his primary clinical work as a psychotherapist, Damian is a Senior Tutor on the government's postgraduate Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) Programme at the University of Surrey where he trains people to offer frontline depression and anxiety services within the NHS primary care system. He also lecturers in individual and group psychotherapy at various universities in the South East and teaches Existential Skills Practice to Doctoral Students at NSPC.

Damian's work centres on a respect for each individual's unique ways of being in the world and a belief that people cannot be considered separately from their relationships with others and the contexts in which they exist. Such work does not provide answers or a magic cure for life's everyday mysteries and discontents, but rather an opportunity for people to clarify both their own distinctive ways of engaging with the world and the choices available to them.

Damian combines an existential and cognitive behavioural approach to enable individuals to face emerging life issues in both pragmatic and exploratory ways, He offers both short and longer term therapy.
