Counselling in Lewes
Life can be complex and challenging at times. We may feel anxious, sad, lost or overwhelmed by our relationship, work, loss of a loved one, lack of confidence or low self-worth. We may find ourselves struggling with depression, insecurity, lack of sleep, infidelity, shame, infertility and we lose hope that we'll ever feel differently again. It's at times like these that you may have wondered how psychotherapy can help you. You may feel nervous about seeking help, which is quite normal. However, you'll find a relaxed and warm atmosphere while working with me.

As a retired firefighter and counsellor, I understand the importance of truly being understood, especially for those who have faced traumatic experiences. My extensive life experience allows me to connect deeply with clients who have been through similar trials. It's rare and liberating for them to find someone who genuinely 'gets it.' Accessibility is key; I simplify online sessions by sending a direct link, ensuring easy and effective communication. My approach provides a supportive space where clients feel seen and understood, aiding their healing process.

As a therapist and midwife I understand the barriers you might feel asking for help during the perinatal period (pregnancy, birth or postnatally). Many people struggle to talk about their anxiety, depression or doubts and worries about being a parent. You might feel judged or that you have failed in some way and there can be a real sense of pressure to feel positive throughout, making it sometimes feel really hard to admit you are struggling, so I understand just how significant asking for help is. Reaching out is positive and is the first step towards recovery - of your sense of self, your self worth and your wellbeing.

People may come to therapy for different reasons - overwhelming feelings or else a lack of feeling, loneliness, or just a sense of something missing. I believe strongly in the power of the therapeutic relationship. Because this is how we discover how we relate to others, who we really are and what we want from our lives. It can be life changing. I am a member of the HCPC and my work abides by their ethical framework.

I am based at the Practice Rooms, Brighton and my office in Wilmington, East Sussex. I have a life long fascination in the nature of us as humans and in particular our emotional lives. I am interested in how complicated we all are. Sometimes it can help to take time out to try to understand ourselves better, and how we are in the world, for example, ‘Why do I keep making the same mistakes?’, ‘’Why am I so fearful, stressed or unhappy?' or ‘How did I get here?’. Therapy can help to work through some of the complexities in our lives or to make sense of and mourn painful experiences and to keep a sense of creativity and meaning alive.

I do not judge and am approachable.

I approach therapy from a systemic and integrative perspective, my experience has shown me that people and their lives, are complex, layered, and multifaceted. So, any therapeutic approach should reflect and accommodate this. It can be useful to consider how past relationships have become patterns for current ones. Working together to explore family and background experiences can prove useful when considering current issues. I work with adults (18+) face to face at my practice in Hove or by Zoom. My approach is supportive, collaborative and reflective, aiming to deepen your self-understanding and help you to explore choices.

I work with clients who struggle with a range of issues from relationship challenges to historical sexual abuse. I work with you at your pace in a supportive, non-directive way.
