My Story


Dr. St John is a psychoanalyst and psychotherapist with more than 40 years of clinical experience. Since 1985, Dr. St John has maintained a private practice following extensive work in hospitals and mental health settings, providing comprehensive and individualized psychoanalytic treatment to adults seeking personal growth, meaningful change, and support with a range of mental health concerns.

Dr. St John’s approach is grounded in the understanding that individuals develop patterns of feeling and behavior early in life that can continue into adulthood, even when those patterns no longer serve them. Through psychoanalytic treatment, Dr. St John has helped individuals explore and resolve unconscious patterns and conflicts, addressing a broad range of personal and psychological concerns with compassion, understanding, and collaboration.

Dr. St John currently practices analytic treatment but is no longer accepting new patients, instead transitioning toward professional consultation. Dr. St John provides consultation through video platforms such as Zoom and has found, through extensive experience with both personal practice and consultees, that meaningful therapeutic and professional transformation can occur through video-based work.

A significant focus of Dr. St John’s work has been training and mentoring therapists from around the world. With a deep commitment to psychoanalysis and a passion for the profession, Dr. St John is now directing decades of clinical experience toward educating and supporting the next generation of therapists through psychoanalytic consultation.
