/ Jamie L.
My journey in the field of mental health has been both extensive and diverse, encompassing a wide range of therapeutic modalities and client populations. This rich background enables me to offer a comprehensive and nuanced perspective to my students. At Chrysalis, I integrate both theoretical knowledge and practical application into my teaching, ensuring that students not only understand the core principles of counselling and psychotherapy but also feel confident in applying these principles in real-world scenarios.
My approach to teaching is grounded in empathy, active listening, and a deep respect for the unique experiences and perspectives that each student brings to the learning environment. I believe in creating a supportive and interactive classroom atmosphere where students are encouraged to engage deeply with the material, ask questions, and develop their own therapeutic style.
In addition to my teaching role, I am committed to ongoing professional development, regularly attending workshops, conferences, and training sessions to stay abreast of the latest advancements in the field. This commitment ensures that my teaching remains current, relevant, and informed by the latest research and best practices.
At Chrysalis, I have the privilege of working with a diverse and dynamic group of students, each of whom is passionate about making a positive impact in the field of mental health. It is immensely rewarding to witness their growth and development as they progress through their training, and I am honored to play a part in their journey towards becoming skilled and compassionate mental health professionals.
I moved to the UK from the USA after completing a Masters degree and www.*** in Classical Philology at Harvard University. My first teaching jobs in the UK were at Winchester College and Westminster School, where I taught GCSE and A-level classes in Greek and Latin.
I have published numerous articles and books on Greek literature while working as a lecturer at the University of Bristol (2007-2011) and Corpus Christi College, Oxford (2011-2016). After the birth of my third child, I stopped lecturing and took a job locally as teacher of Greek and Latin at Pilgrims' Prep School in Winchester.
At the University of Bristol, I taught undergraduates and post graduates, many of whom were Adult learners.
The diversity of my work experience has allowed me to teach from many different textbooks for beginners and intermediates and all of the popular text prescriptions for exams.
I also offer support for university applications to UK and USA universities. I give alumni interviews for Harvard applicants in the Winchester area. I am very skilled in online instruction, but I don't have a Facebook page or personal website. For my publications and academic work, I use my birth name (Hitch), many of which can be found on Google or Amazon.
