Dr Margherita Margiotti

About me:

I am a psychoanalyst, member of the British Psychoanalytical Society (incorporating the Institute of Psychoanalysis). I am  in full time private practice and before then I worked as an adult psychotherapist in an NHS psychoanalytic Service in the North of England. I hold a PhD from the University of St Andrews in social anthropology and I carried out ethnographic fieldwork in Panama with Guna indigenous people on their ideas about kinship, growth, childrearing practices, the life cycle, and village social organisation.

At Exeter, I enjoy helping trainees developing their capacity to be receptive to their patients and be able to move from the experiential to the theoretical with a strong anchor in clinical work.
