About the Author(s)
Derry MacDiarmid was born in Scotland in 1928. His early interest in Jung led him into analysis, then medical training before becoming an NHS psychiatrist and finally consultant psychotherapist at Guys Hospital, London. Married with three sons, he lived in Clapham in London, where he also practiced privately as a Jungian analyst for over 25 years. He died in 2006.
Sue Macdiarmid read politics at Manchester University before training as a psychiatric social worker. After a Masters degree and professional qualification at Oxford University, she worked at the York Clinic, Guy’s Hospital, and the Social Services department of the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea, where she specialized in working with children and families. She married Derry Macdiarmid in 1978 and has kept an interest in mental health issues and in conflict resolution, and has trained as a yoga teacher. She continues to live in London and the Scottish Highlands.
