Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Counselling in Saltdean

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.

Understand and clear the ROOT cause of repeating patterns and subconscious beliefs in this life, past lives and generational lineages – to come home to your true self. Specialist trauma healing and womb healing for women.

Working as a BACP Accredited Integrative Humanistic Counsellor, I have over 8 years experience working with Adults across Sussex. Just a sample of issues I can help with include grief, depression, anger, anxiety, life stage change including menopause adjustment and ageing. I also have experience working with child birth issues including miscarriage, stillbirth and supporting in pregnancy after previous loss. Whether your issue is from the past or you're having difficulty now, I can help you reframe how you think and feel about things and support you through your problem whether working short or long term.

I am a qualified experienced counsellor working with Adults and Children on a wide range of presenting issues. My aim is to create an environment where you can feel accepted, respected and safe to talk about whatever you want to, without feeling judged. I aim to understand you as if I am stepping into your shoes and seeing the world through your eyes.

With over two decades of experience as an integrative therapist, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals and couples navigate the complexities of fertility, reproductive health, pregnancy, psychosexual challenges, and relationship issues. In 2003, I established a groundbreaking clinic in London that specialised in these fields using a variety of modalities. My therapeutic style is rooted in empathy, holism, rational emotional behavioural therapy (CBT model) and a person-centred approach. I draw upon a diverse range of techniques to delve into the underlying roots of any issue. I am also certified hypnotherapist.

I firmly believe that the therapeutic relationship is the main vessel of real change. Therapy is a journey to be embarked safely, and it can help you to deal with your pain. Together, we can try to explore that pain or uncertainty that hinders the possibility you have to live a full and meaningful life. We will work together towards your objectives; it doesn't matter how far they seem now or how painful is to think about them.

Hello, my name is Jacqueline and I am a psychotherapist and counsellor working online and in Lewes to help adults and young people to create positive changes. At the moment, you may be feeling overwhelmed by your emotions. Trauma, abuse, or neglect from the past may be haunting you. You may be approaching a life transition with anxiety and fear. You may feel too detached or numb to connect with the good things in your life.

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.

Are you looking for help and support with problems that feel hard to overcome? I am an experienced therapist, and offer a warm, welcoming and calm space to explore your difficulties and facilitate positive change. Perhaps your life taken a turn or direction you are not happy with, or you might have tough choices to make. Maybe you can’t quite put your finger on why you feel unhappy or dissatisfied, but you know that something’s not right. Whatever has brought you to therapy, I am here to help.

As I work relationally and with unconscious processes I work well with any presenting issues that are related to attachment. These may be experienced as anxiety, depression, OCD, bereavement issues, substance use etc. You may have difficulties forming meaningful lasting relationships or have recognised a pattern in things going wrong in your life which make you unhappy. You may have current issues with your children that are echoing past hurts of your own that need attending to. I can help you to explore these issues within the safe and holding relationship that we can create together.

Hello, I’m Kate. I am a qualified Psychotherapist specialising in anxiety, depression and women's related issues. This encompasses many of the challenges we face today like societal pressures, career struggles, low self esteem, finding or maintaining meaningful, healthy relationships. I have wide experience with those who identify as women on varying journeys of motherhood, including fertility struggles or being childless by choice, birth trauma or PND, and all the heavy emotions that can accompany those journeys. We can explore the impact these have on your day-to-day life and navigate a way through to a place of empowerment.

Life can present us with many challenges. The build-up of everyday stresses and disappointments, or the ability to cope with sadness and pain may at times affect your self-esteem and confidence levels. You may feel the need for support in addition to what you already have in place, which is when you may decide to seek the help of a counsellor. I run my private practice on Tuesdays between 10am-7pm offering remote sessions either by Zoom or telephone - please visit my website for more info. Contact me to arrange a free 30 minute introductory session to help you decide whether I am the right person to work with you.
