In over 10 years working in a variety of clinical and mental health settings, Dr Ryan has acquired a breadth of experience in research and clinical practice. He has presented at several international conferences on a range of clinical topics, including at the 16th International Neuropsychoanalysis Congress in Amsterdam. It was during his elective placement at Oxford, supervised by Dr Giles Yeates, that Dr Ryan was afforded the opportunity to engage in brief psychodynamic approaches to treatment with neurological patients, an experience which has informed his ongoing interest in the area of neuropsychoanalysis. Dr Ryan is currently completing a 3-year core training in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy and continues to apply neuropsychoanalytic theory in the treatment of neurological patients.
