Racial Identity Counselling in Hove
I work with clients on any element of self development or exploration. I have experience with a range of presenting issues such as: cultural/identity related issues, abuse, family/relationship dynamics, and anxiety. Sessions can sometimes reach unexpected places and this requires my clients to have an element of open-mindedness and bravery.

I work with adults processing life events, mental health difficulties, life transitions and anything else that might be effecting their day-to-day peace. I try to create a space that feels safe enough to aid you on a journey of self-awareness in order for you to gain new understanding and perspective within yourself and your situation. Some of my client work has included helping to manage anxiety, depression, sexual assault, loss and grief, generational trauma and identity.

Everyone will experience times in their lives when problems can feel overwhelming. Experienced traumas, difficulties with relationships, sexuality issues, fear of aloneness, pattern of behaviour are just a few examples of life struggles that can be experienced by everyone at some stage of their lives. These difficulties create conscious and unconscious barriers to our authenticity and impact our relationships. I understand how hard it can be to start therapy and will offer a safe, confidential and non-judgmental space (face-face and online) to explore together whatever you wish to discuss. I am a registered member of BACP and UKCP.

I'm delighted to connect with you as an HCPC registered Arts Therapist (Drama and Movement Therapist). I graduated from Royal Central School of Speech and Drama where I trained in using drama, movement, and symbolism as therapeutic tools for self-discovery. Over my 7 years working in mental health, I've honed an approach that feels creative, embodied, and most importantly - safe. If you feel stuck in old narratives or ready to process past trauma, I'm here to listen without judgement and companion you on your journey toward healing. My goal is to provide a warm, affirming environment where we can explore your inner world.

I believe we all hold the power to heal ourselves. It takes courage to face our insecurities and discomfort that can leave us feeling stuck, overwhelmed or confused. You don't have to struggle alone, sometimes we could use a little support. My role as your therapist is to work with your unique process and guide you to reconnect with your own healing energy- So you can start to trust yourself to make the changes you need and achieve your personal goals from a balanced place of clarity and confidence.

I am a psychotherapist and group analyst and have been a therapist for nearly 30 years in many different settings. In my approach, I am interested in making connections between experiences and difficulties in the present, with events and relationships from the past. In my experience, difficulties people experience as adults can often be part of a repeated pattern. I will be curious about relationships in your life but also the way you relate to yourself and to others. This will include how it is in the therapy relationship - whether individually or group.

I believe that it's through a secure therapeutic relationship that an individual can gain self awareness, insight and a deeper understanding of their feelings and concerns to grow, to re engage in life and move forward to reach their full potential.

Hello, I'm Pippa and I have more than 10 years' experience helping stressed and anxious teenagers feel better, build confidence in themselves and find healthier ways to cope. I really understand how all consuming it is when you're worried about your child. They might be worried about school, relationships with friends or family or perhaps feeling on edge, overwhelmed or sad and tearful without knowing why. Sometimes it can be really helpful to have a trusted adult outside the family who can give a supportive space to your young person and guide you all through the process towards feeling better.

Whether you are dealing with life transitions, emotional challenges, or simply longing for a space to explore and express your inner world, I can offer a refreshing and insightful path to self discovery and understanding through art therapy. Art therapy uses art making, alongside talking, to enrich communication and to provide another way for emotions to be processed. Art making can enable you to explore feelings that may be too difficult to put into words.

Hello I’m Selene. I have 20 years of experience as a counsellor. I am a warm and open-minded person with a good sense of humour. I offer a welcoming and confidential space where we can together create an empowering therapeutic relationship. I believe you are an expert in your own life and my role is to support and challenge you reconnecting with yourself and your strengths. Counselling is an opportunity to give yourself the time and space to imagine who you want to be. Sometimes fear and shame make us stuck and disconnected from others and not able to ask for what we want. Therapy can help you free yourself and open connection.

Sometimes in life we experience difficult changes and may struggle with anxiety and or depression. This can often be overwhelming and very difficult to overcome. Counselling can help us to explore these difficulties and gain deeper understanding. Therapy requires investment from me, as the therapist, and you the client, to foster an environment where healing can take place. Sometimes this takes time, and may not be easy, however, I will be with you all the way.
