Counselling in Brighton, Burgess Hill and Sussex
Helping you through life’s ups and downs
We all have times when we feel stuck and need someone to talk to.
If you’re finding life challenging, therapeutic counselling can provide you with the insight and self-awareness you are seeking. I can work with you to unlock your inner potential as you work towards your hopes and goals.
Contact me to arrange a free no-obligation 20 minute consultation to explore what you may be looking for, and to understand how I work.
I have specialist training and experience working with a wide-range of clients, and I draw on over 20 years experience working in a range of fields including mental health, sport, men’s health / issues, addiction, disability, sex and sexuality, EDI as well as crisis helpline work.
My work is grounded in person-centred focused therapy:
- Online counselling – by zoom or telephone
- In-person counselling – face to face in Burgess Hill (Cyprus Hall, RH15 8DX) or Brighton (Brighton Consulting Rooms, BN1 6SG)
- Walk and talk counselling – in Brighton, Hove, Burgess Hill or Haywards Heath (we can agree the location and route)
- Hybrid – a combination of the above
I will offer you a safe, trusting and supportive space for you to explore your issues, feelings and behaviours. I offer a welcoming environment whatever you might bring.
About me
I’m a qualified person-centred therapeutic counsellor, registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy. I bring my experience working in the sports, charity and corporate sectors as well as voluntary work on helplines, crisis and addiction services. Whatever you wish to bring to therapy, I can work with you to develop the tools you need to live a happy and fulfilling life.
My approach
Grounded in a person-centred approach, I believe that you are the expert and I will work with whatever you choose to bring.
I usually work in an “open ended” way, so you have the freedom of how long we work together. Choice and autonomy are fundamental to my work and I can offer either weekly or fortnightly sessions (depending on availability).
I will let you set the pace, and decide what content to bring. I am responsible for helping you through the process as we work with your hopes and expectations.

Walk and talk counselling
I offer walk and talk counselling sessions within Brighton and Hove, Burgess Hill, Haywards Heath and surrounding areas. This form of therapy incorporates the outside environment, and has the benefit of incorporating light physical exercise.

I have a limited number of reduced-fee counselling sessions for those on low incomes, full-time students and counselling students.
