Online Relationship Counselling · Crawley
Online relationship counselling for Crawley, by secure video, wherever you are. The hardest part is often just starting. Online relationship counselling keeps that first step small for people in Crawley: a private hour from your own space, with no journey and nobody to bump into.
Across Crawley, across the neighbourhoods, from Three Bridges and Pound Hill to Bewbush, Ifield and Tilgate, and from the streets around Tilgate Park, the High Street and nearby Gatwick, online relationship counselling takes the logistics out of getting help: no commute, no waiting room, and the focus kept where it belongs, on you.
Although my practice sits on the Sussex coast in Hove, distance is no obstacle. People in Crawley work with me online and receive exactly the same specialist, confidential support as anyone who walks through the door.
I also work online with people elsewhere in London & South East, including Horsham, Chichester, London.
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 Crawley online relationship counselling is the natural and effective choice.
Life in Crawley
Crawley lives in the orbit of Gatwick, and a great many people here work shifts tied to the airport and the round-the-clock economy around it. Unsociable hours, job insecurity and the disruption the aviation world has weathered in recent years all take a toll on sleep, mood and family life in ways that build up slowly.
Airport towns run around the clock, and the shift rotas that come with that play havoc with sleep, mood and family life. Online counselling fits around irregular hours instead of demanding a nine-to-five slot.

Rebuilding safety after betrayal or addiction.

Why online works in Crawley
If your week in Crawley runs on the early train and the late return, online sessions slot into the day without adding another journey to it.
An online hour rarely costs you a half-day, which is what makes regular sessions realistic for busy lives in Crawley.
If you move, travel for work or split your time between places, online counselling carries on uninterrupted wherever you happen to be.
From Crawley, 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.
However we meet, the approach stays consistent. My approach is integrative and person-centred. We are not looking for someone to blame, but at the system the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, drawing on relational therapy, Internal Family Systems and Human Givens approaches.
Practically, it couldn't be simpler: a quiet room, a device with a camera, and a steady internet connection. After a free fifteen-minute call to check the fit, you'll get a private link to join at our agreed time.

Start the conversationMy online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Crawley, you can refer yourself directly to NHS West Sussex Talking Therapies for free NHS talking therapy, with no GP referral needed. You can also find your nearest service 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.
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.

Yes, and many people do both. You can access support from NHS West Sussex Talking Therapies 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.
