Jungian Therapist in London
A Jungian therapist brings to clinical work a depth of training and a particular way of understanding the psyche that distinguishes them from most other therapists in London. Philippe Jacquet is a Jungian analyst and integrative psychotherapist practising at Harley Street W1, Central London, and Bermondsey SE1 — with over 25 years of clinical experience in depth-oriented work.
What makes a Jungian therapist different
The Jungian approach to therapy is interested in the unconscious — in the patterns, complexes, and dynamics that operate below the level of conscious awareness and that shape a person’s experience more powerfully than anything they can deliberately choose or think their way out of. A Jungian therapist is trained to work at this level: not just with what a person says, but with what underlies it.
This includes working with dreams, which Jungians regard as authentic communications from the unconscious rather than noise to be decoded. It includes attention to images, symbols, and the mythological dimensions of personal experience — the patterns in a person’s story that connect to something larger. And it includes a particular interest in the shadow: the parts of the self that have been excluded from conscious identity and that create difficulty precisely because they are unrecognised.
Jungian training is extensive — years of personal analysis, supervised clinical work, and deep study of analytical psychology. It is not a short qualification. The depth of that training is what makes it possible to do genuinely depth-oriented work.
What this practice offers

Anxiety and depression; trauma, including complex developmental trauma, using EMDR (Philippe Jacquet has practised EMDR for over 20 years and is EMDR Europe accredited); addiction; eating disorders, including the specialism in male eating disorders that forms the basis of Philippe’s doctoral research; relationship difficulty; grief; identity and life direction.
