In Person Counselling in Brighton

I offer both short-term and long-term counselling and psychotherapy in person in Brighton and online for individuals or couples. Qualified with over fifteen years of clinical experience in the fields of abuse, trauma, mental health, I work with adults and use a number of different approaches to adjust the work to the individual needs of each client. My approach aims to assist in exploring thoughts, feelings, conflicts, both in the present & past and to help facilitate change, growth and resolution, reducing symptoms and helping you to engage with life more fully.

When we are facing difficulties in life, a compassionate, caring and confidential space to talk can be so helpful. I offer clients a safe and non-judgemental approach for you to discuss whatever is troubling you. You may be feeling anxious or depressed and need some support. You may be feeling overwhelmed and need to find a sense of clarity about what you are thinking and how you are feeling. Counselling offers a regular space for you to make any necessary changes for you to move forward with your life.

Hello! A very warm welcome to you. As we face these uncertain times in our world, we find ourselves coming up against many challenges that may be exacerbating our existing internal struggles. It feels more important than ever to find some sense of certainty and purpose in these difficult times. The very idea of isolation can bring on fear and anxiety, uncertainty around our livelihoods can trigger old and new coping strategies that may feel damaging to one’s self.

I am an experientially informed, person centred, psychotherapeutic counsellor with a faith in the human potential to develop in a positive direction. I believe we have our own path to cut through the woods in our unique life journey. The body keeps the score, and we are wiser than we think. I take a non-discriminatory, LGBTQI+ affirmative, experiential, Person Centred approach. I believe neurodiversity is a difference and not a disorder. I take a non-judgemental, relational, holistic approach, alive to all aspects of self and factors outside. For me, it's not about what's wrong with a person, it's about what has happened to them.

I offer you a warm, compassionate and non-judgmental approach. You may want to talk about anything from family or relationship issues, anxiety, anger, depression, loss or whatever is important to you. All of us experience emotional difficulties at some point in our lives. We can find it hard to cope. Counselling provides a safe and confidential space where you can talk about what is happening in your life, explore thoughts and feelings, find ways to cope and help begin to think about a way forward. Counselling can offer general support or can focus on more specific issues.

A warm welcome. My name is Andi and I am an independent private provider of counselling and psychotherapy across the Brighton area. My focus is on helping clients overcome a range of psychological and emotional issues to get life back on track as quickly and effectively as possible. I offer a caring and flexible approach to your individual needs and am trained in a variety of approaches which enables me to help you find your own answers and guide you through difficult times. Where possible you can be seen quickly and I aim to get back to you within a few hours. Evening appointments available Tuesday to Thursday

Whether you are feeling stuck, anxious, depressed, bereaved or unsure about your emotions, together we can unpack, at your own pace, what’s on your mind in a confidential, safe space. For me, therapy is about making sense of our experiences, the relationship we have with ourselves and with others, the choices we make, and how we can find hope to live the life we truly want.

Whether you are managing a life event or would like some help improving your emotional health, I provide a safe space to explore present or historical issues, to look at specific problems, psychological patterns, or to manage life in general. My specialism is EMDR for PTSD/ complex trauma, which includes depression, anxiety disorders, relational issues and problems with emotional regulation. I work for the NHS as a psychotherapist at The Royal Sussex County Hospital, and for 2 years was the young person's therapist for survivors of sexual violence/ abuse at Survivors Network

As a Clinical Psychologist, I draw on a range of approaches, including CBT, trauma-focussed therapies, and family therapies, amongst others. Sessions often involve identifying the patterns that may be keeping problems stuck and helping a person beyond these, towards their values and goals. Sometimes, it might be helpful to focus on the 'here and now'. Other times, I may suggest spending some more time looking back on the past, if you would like, in order to move forward.

I am a specialist OCD therapist; I offer Rumination Focused ERP (Dr. Michael Greenberg) for OCD. I treat anxiety, depression & other mental health issues. I assess & diagnose Autism & ADHD. I have extensive experience in supporting people through life events and transitions. As a Christian psychologist I support those who wish to integrate their faith and mental wellbeing and those who wish to explore their faith and doubts (including scrupulosity). I also work with people other faiths or no faith. I’m registered with all major UK insurers and I'm insured to work internationally.

At times life can be distressing or leave us feeling less able to cope. Perhaps you feel at odds with yourself; unsure of how to move forward or aware that you don't want to continue feeling as you do now.

Hello. I am Sarah Eva. I am an experienced psychotherapist and an accredited EMDR practitioner and consultant (supervisor). I am a qualified CBT therapist and have completed training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) Levels 1 and 2. I provide safe and confidential therapy services to adults and adolescents (16+) for a range of presenting difficulties, from depression and anxiety, including OCD, to childhood trauma, including sexual abuse and complex PTSD. I have a clinic in Brighton, UK and offer online therapy sessions. I am accredited with BACP and EMDR UK.

In my practice, the therapeutic relationship is a space where difficult life experiences can be worked through. I take an integrative approach, in which I encourage you to be curious about how your difficulties relate to previous experiences and your expectations for yourself and others. This often brings up feelings that can seem unwelcome and I work with you to help you understand unwanted emotions and connect to your body. My approach aims to deepen your self-awareness in the here-and-now as this helps you to understand and feel compassion for yourself, and be okay in who you are.

I am a Clinical Psychologist and EMDR therapist. I am passionate about working alongside people to enable them to achieve meaningful, long-lasting change by using evidence-based psychological therapy. I have experience working with a range of mental health difficulties and physical health settings within the NHS and charity sectors. I have predominatly worked with people experiencing PTSD or complex trauma as well as long-term health conditions.

Sometimes we are in distress or crisis. Maybe our behaviours confuse us or those around us. We may find it hard to be authentically ourselves, or have conflicting desires or feelings. We might be struggling with acceptance of things we cannot change, or struggling with self-acceptance. Maybe we are experiencing issues in our important relationships, or simply want to understand ourselves better. Perhaps we are just struggling with feeling down and/or overwhelmed. Therapy can be a helpful space to start with all of this. By providing a safe environment to explore the things that bother us, or that matter to us most.

Do you feel like something needs to change? Although everyone has their own unique reasons for deciding to see a therapist, most people will be driven by a feeling that something in their life needs to change. Maybe you have been struggling with anxiety or depression, or an addiction or addictive behaviour has started to dominate your days? Perhaps you are struggling to let go of a bad experience from your past? Maybe low self-esteem is limiting your potential? Or it could be that you just don’t feel like ‘you’ anymore…. Whatever you are facing, I can help.

Across 9 years of psychodynamic therapy practice, I have evolved an approach informed by my concurrent practices as artist and gardener: nurturing, growth and transformation infuse our work together, both informing and cultivating the discovery of where and how we can live in ourselves and the world. The work of therapy resides in a space that we cultivate together - a space where meaning can be made or found - it is a place in the clearing. Here, lives and held views can be encouraged to be found, to be heard, and to potentially transform.

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 imagine that you are here because life seems particularly tough at the moment. Perhaps you are anxious about the future, or suffering with difficult memories from the past. Perhaps you have realised that the relationship patterns you have developed are no longer working for you and you would like to find a new way of connecting to your partner or others. Perhaps you need some practical guidance with a sex related problem. Wouldn't it be good if a trusted professional, who is also warm and 'real' could help you find a positive way forward?
