About

My name is Duncan Barford. I am a writer, podcaster, and psychodynamic counsellor. OEITH is my website, drawing together my work and interests in magick, spirituality, and the paranormal, focusing in particular on how these intersect within personal experience, psychology, and spiritual practice.

OEITH originally was a blog, which ran from 2009 to 2014, serving as an online supplement to my book of the same title published by Aeon 2010. The best articles from this first phase are now available as a book.

I suspended the blog when I began training as a counsellor, concerned that a conspicuous interest in the occult might prove professionally unhelpful. But having now qualified and worked for a number of years in various therapeutic contexts, I am enjoying discussing openly again my deep and lifelong interest in this field.

If you are interested in meeting with me for counselling, take at look at my other website for further information and how you can get in touch.
