Adult Counselling in Brighton & Hove and Online

Finding a way forward

We all go through times when life can feel overwhelming, confusing or difficult to manage. You may be facing a particular problem, going through a period of change, or simply have a sense that something in your life does not feel quite right.

I offer counselling and therapy for adults in Brighton & Hove and online, providing a warm, supportive and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, relationships and experiences at your own pace.

Together, we can approach what is happening with curiosity and compassion, begin to recognise patterns, understand your needs and hopes, and explore ways forward that feel meaningful and manageable to you.

My Approach

My approach is integrative, which means I draw on a range of therapeutic ideas and ways of working, adapting them to you, your needs and what feels most helpful.

I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so I offer a bespoke and individual approach that reflects who you are and what you bring to the counselling space.

My work is rooted in a Person-Centred approach (see FAQs), supporting you to develop greater self-awareness, connect with your inner resources, and move towards your potential.

I can also draw on Gestalt, Existential (see FAQs) and creative approaches, allowing us to work together in a way that feels meaningful, supportive and appropriate for you.
