Counselling for Drinking Problems for Salisbury, without the journey
From the heart of Salisbury, near the cathedral, the water meadows and nearby Stonehenge, out to its edges, from the cathedral close and the centre to Bemerton, Harnham and Laverstock, online sessions make it possible to get the right support without rearranging your whole day around a single appointment.
I'm based in Hove on the Sussex coast and work with clients right across the UK by secure video. For Salisbury, that means a BACP-registered counsellor specialising in addiction, anxiety, depression, relationships and trauma, available from the privacy of your own space.
I also work online with people elsewhere in South West, including Southampton, Swindon, Bristol.
If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Salisbury online counselling for drinking problems is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Salisbury
Why people in Salisbury reach out
Salisbury is a historic cathedral city with a strong military presence on the surrounding plain, and the forces connection brings deployments, moves and the strain on families that follows. A genteel surface can make it hard to admit when things are difficult.
Smaller towns can be close-knit in ways that are both comforting and exposing. Working online means you can seek support discreetly, without being seen coming and going.

Why online works in Salisbury
Why people in Salisbury choose online counselling
Discreet in a close-knit place
In a town where people know one another, online sessions keep your support entirely private.
Less time lost from work
An online hour rarely costs you a half-day, which is what makes regular sessions realistic for busy lives in Salisbury.
Support that travels
If you move, travel for work or split your time between places, online counselling carries on uninterrupted wherever you happen to be.
No commute, no waiting room
From Salisbury, there's no journey across town and no waiting room. You join from wherever feels safe, and the rest of your day simply carries on around the session.
How online sessions work
Beyond the practicalities, this is the heart of how the work goes. In our sessions we take an integrative approach, viewing your difficulties from an existential and humanistic perspective. Because you are the one who knows yourself best, my role is to walk alongside you as you build genuine alternatives to drinking.
You don't need any special software, just a private space, a device with a camera and a decent connection. We always start with a free fifteen-minute call, and from then on you simply click a secure link at the time we've set.

Start the conversationFinding support in Salisbury
My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Salisbury, you can refer yourself directly to NHS talking therapies for anxiety and depression, with no GP referral needed. You can find support through the NHS Talking Therapies finder.
Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.
If you need urgent help now
This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.
For urgent mental health support, call NHS 111 and choose the mental health option. The Samaritans are free, day or night, on 116 123, or text SHOUT to 85258.
Salisbury questions
Online Counselling for Drinking Problems in Salisbury: common questions
Do you offer online counselling for drinking problems for people in Salisbury?
Yes. I work with clients in Salisbury and right across the UK by secure video. You don't need to live near Brighton or Hove; online counselling for drinking problems brings the same care to wherever you are.
What do I need to start online sessions in Salisbury?
Very little: a private space where you won't be interrupted, a laptop, tablet or phone, and a reasonable internet connection. After a free fifteen-minute call, I send a secure link you click at our agreed time.
Does online therapy really work?
Online and in-person therapy are similarly effective for most people, and clients usually settle quickly once the screen fades into the background and the conversation takes over.
Can I use the NHS in Salisbury as well as seeing you?
Yes, and many people do both. You can access support from your local NHS talking therapies or counselling service alongside our work; private counselling simply means you can usually start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout. I'm happy to work alongside any NHS support you're receiving.
