Counselling in East Sussex

Therapy is personal journey, unique to you and directed by what you want to achieve; I trained in Relational Transactional Analysis and use this modality to support my clients' growth in self awareness and understanding of the unconscious patterns that have been driving their behaviour. Many clients can't fully articulate what they want from therapy, only that they want things to be different, this is normal, and part of the process of therapy is working with you to discover what you want. On the way we aim to discover what blocks you from achieving your goals and support you in finding new paths to reach your goal.

Many people find themselves continually repeating familiar patterns of behaviour and attracting the same problems in their lives. If this has been your cycle, you are not alone, and it is ok to ask for support. Many clients come to me because they have a desire to change yet have been able to make these changes themselves. I have no magical ability to heal anyone or change their life, however I can help you to process how you are feeling, help you to find new perspectives, and can pass on insights and concepts that may help to make sense of your problems, so you can develop the capacity to become your own healer.

Life can be difficult at any stage and sometimes you need a safe space and the right environment to process your thoughts and feelings. I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Hastings , offering long and short-term counselling to individuals and groups. I offer a safe, caring, and non-judgmental space where together we can explore the challenges you face. If you are suffering with trauma, anxiety, depression, or life is overwhelming I can help you. The therapy I facilitate is through a collaborative process providing a place to explore and process thoughts, feelings, and behaviours to help you achieve your goals.

I have over 30 years experience offering psychotherapy in the voluntary sector, social services and NHS. I qualified with The Guild of Psychotherapists in 2008. I work with people with a wide range of difficulties including depression and anxiety. I offer either weekly, twice or thrice weekly sessions to look in depth at the issues you are facing in your life at present. Through ongoing discussions together it becomes possible to find more clarity as to what may be causing unhappiness and to become more aware of how you might make changes in your perspective or in life situation to find a better way forward.

If there are aspects of your life that you find challenging and you long to break free from some of the restrictive cycles and patterns then I would love to stand alongside you and give you my full presence and support, and together we can create a safe space in which you can find the courage to risk opening to all that is within you. I offer sessions online internationally or face to face in Brighton, UK. Some of the issues I can help you explore are: Self-esteem/confidence, Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Bereavement, Relationships, Direction, Meaning & purpose.

I realise that seeking therapy may feel daunting and I know how important it is that you find a therapist you can trust with your innermost thoughts and feelings. Perhaps you have come to a time in your life when you feel you need some extra support for whatever challenges and difficulties you are facing. It may be that you have suffered a loss, a relationship issue or experienced a significant life event or that you feel the weight of depression or anxiety. Perhaps you have decided the time is right to try to make some changes in your life.

As an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, I take a holistic and collaborative approach to help you improve your well-being. I believe we all have the answers inside us and, with a little support, a good therapist can help you find the solutions that are best for you. Because I believe your experience and view of the world is unique to you, I work in a way that values your individuality and allows you a safe space to explore any issue you choose to bring.

My name is Charlie and I am a successful therapist (qualifying with Distinction) with an MA in Psychology and a BA in Philosophy. I use counselling, CBT and hypnotherapy every day to help people fulfill their goals and I hope very much that you will be the next person to experience the effectiveness of talking therapy and I'm very happy to offer all potential clients a free initial phone consultation.

I am an experienced psychotherapist with UK qualifications in Psychology and Psychotherapy and over 20 years working in the world of relationships, sexuality and wellbeing. I help individuals, couples and other relationship groups deal with struggles, development, change and loss within their relationships and personally. Most of my clients are trying to overcome problems in relationship with themselves and/or others. I use an integrated approach to psychotherapy, leaning heavily towards Relational Life Therapy which is always underpinned by current psychological research.

I've been counselling since 1989, and have extensive experience of working with sexual abuse and trauma, parenting and attachment difficulties, identity and relationship issues, depression and anxiety, bereavement and loss. I don’t claim to be an ‘expert’ in any of these areas because everyone's response is different and what matters is you and your own unique experience of these difficulties. I am committed to collaborating with you to find the resilient, hopeful part of yourself that becomes expert in managing your challenges and is motivated by the smallest signs of progress towards your preferred future.

When you’re feeling overwhelmed and don’t know how to cope I’ll help you discover what is going on so that you can move forward in a positive, uplifting way. I will listen and hear what you say, then actively tune in to you, providing support and understanding without judgment.

Hi my name is Clare and before you read on, I first want to say that I hope you find the help you are seeking and that if you are suffering you find the right support to help ease your pain. Perhaps you are struggling to cope, feeling powerless, desperate or maybe you wish for personal change; I can support you in your journey. Specific issues that I can help with: anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, bereavement, loss, relationship problems, improving communication, problem-solving,  life or work stress,  trauma, post-pandemic anxiety and general life dissatisfaction.

Therapy can provide you with the opportunity to explore and better understand the issues you are currently experiencing. Whether it be anxiety, depression, loss or relationship problems, we can work together to improve your emotional wellbeing, allowing a greater sense of self and a way forward.

I'm not currently taking on new clients, but I will have availability in October I'm Rachel. I'm an Integrative Relational Therapist based in Brighton, working in-person, online and over the phone. I'm Integrative because I draw from knowledge and experience of different psychotherapeutic models and skills. I'm Relational because I believe that the relationship that I help to build with clients is one of the most important aspects of effective therapy.

Working with individuals and couples online, I am a trauma-informed, BACP Accredited psychodynamic therapist, embracing of gender, sexuality and relationship diversity. Therapy offers a safe, reflective and compassionate space for self-exploration and support, in which to look together at any areas of concern to you. Over time, the process can help to illuminate the underlying beliefs and habitual ways of being and seeing that we carry, towards a greater sense of possibility, choice and authenticity in the present. Couples therapy additionally offers a safe space in which to build stronger connection, communication and understanding

I am a fully qualified Counsellor and accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). I offer face to face, online or outdoor sessions and am experienced in working both short and long term. I'm down to earth and aim to create a relaxed, safe and confidential environment in which you feel able to be yourself and talk freely. You might be struggling with anxiety, feeling uncertain about your life choices or having relationship difficulties. Whatever you want to talk about, counselling can help to build greater self-awareness and in turn more clarity and choice in how you move forward.

I am a warm, empathic and highly experienced counsellor providing sessions in Seaford either in-person or online/phone. I can provide a supportive, collaborative relationship with you to work through your issues and find a way forwards. I have 15 years experience as a trauma-informed person-centred counsellor, supporting clients aged 16+ to work through issues with anxiety, depression, past trauma, relationship difficulties, loss, addictions and more. Prior to counselling, I also have 10 years experience as a support worker in the mental health field, supporting and empowering individuals dealing with complex issues.

I am an approachable and experienced therapist working with a broad spectrum of clients. My therapeutic approach is ‘Integrative’, meaning I use skills and theories from across the major modalities of Humanistic, Psychodynamic and CBT. I have a background in the charitable sector, working as a counsellor in community settings and in schools and colleges, and worked as a Youth Worker. I really value my clients and I am always accepting and non-judgemental, helping you feel safe throughout our work. I work with a collaborative and relational style, meaning our sessions will be conversational and I hope they’ll feel like teamwork.

I work with individuals and couples. I can help you make sense of difficult feelings about yourself, your life, or your partner. With couples, I incorporate Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy which is based in attachment theory.
