I am a Psychodynamic Counsellor located in the City of Brighton and Hove, and practise counselling in the Brunswick area of Hove.

Sometimes in life we need a little help. Counselling can be just what we need to get back some balance in our lives. Being able to talk through what's on our minds with a supportive, non judgemental counsellor can bring relief from our worries. It may also help us to embrace our lives in more creative ways.

I am experienced in counselling people who have a range of problems. Weekly counselling sessions last for 50 minutes and are confidential; I abide by the code of ethics of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Both long term and short term counselling are available. Some of the issues counselling can help with include:

• Depression
• Anxiety
• Stress
• Loneliness
• Bereavement
• Lack of self esteem
• Relationships
• Divorce
• Work related issues
• Sexuality
• Eating issues
• Ageing
• Abuse - physical - sexual - alcohol - drugs

I have a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling from the University of Brighton. I have a background in the visual arts and design, as well as education. I also have experience of a mindfulness based approach to counselling.

Deciding to have counselling is sometimes a brave step, and I will be happy to talk through any concerns and questions during an initial session. There is no charge for this initial session, and it will give you the opportunity to decide whether or not you would like to have the counselling that I offer.

There is a sliding scale of payment for sessions, depending on ability to pay, from £35 to £45. Sessions last for 50 minutes. For enquiries or to book an initial free session telephone 01273 324022 or to email click here.
