The relationship counselling itself
Relationship counselling here, for couples or individuals, slows down the pattern you are caught in and builds healthier ways of hearing and being heard.
The approach is the same wherever you come from, so rather than repeat it on every page you can read it in full — the methods, what each session covers and fees — on the main relationship counselling page and on how I work.
Sessions in person or online
Sessions take place in a private, comfortable room at Intergen House on Western Road in central Hove, held to the strict BACP confidentiality you would expect. We begin with a free fifteen-minute call to check we are a good fit, and the same sessions are available by secure video if travelling is difficult or you would simply prefer it.

Finding support in Lewes
My counselling sits alongside the help available locally. In Lewes, you can refer yourself directly to Health in Mind, the East Sussex NHS Talking Therapies service for free NHS talking therapy, with no GP referral needed.
Seeing me privately usually means you can start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout, working at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I am glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.

If you need urgent help now
This is not a crisis service. If anyone 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.
Lewes questions
Relationship Counselling in Lewes: common questions
Where do Lewes sessions take place, and can I meet online instead?
In a private room at Intergen House on Western Road in central Hove. From Lewes the office is around twenty minutes by car on the A27, or a short direct train to Brighton and on to Hove. Every service is also available by secure video across the UK, so you can meet from any private space in Lewes or blend the two.
Can I come on my own, without my partner?
Yes. A great deal can change when one person shifts the pattern; you do not need to attend as a couple to do useful work.
Can we join the session from different locations?
Yes. Online makes it easy for couples in different places, or juggling childcare, to attend together.
Will you take sides?
No. We look at the pattern the two of you create together and where it gets stuck, not at who is to blame.
