What to expect
Why people from Peacehaven choose to work with me
A free first call
We start with a free fifteen-minute consultation, no obligation, so you can see if I'm the right fit before anything begins.
Integrative and flexible
I draw on whatever genuinely helps you, from Human Givens and IFS to solution-focused and relational work.
Confidential by training
As a BACP-registered counsellor, everything you share is held to a strict professional and ethical framework.
Flexible slots
Evening and weekend appointments mean sessions can usually fit around work and life in Peacehaven, not the other way round.
How I work
Beyond the practicalities, this is the heart of it. 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.
Reaching out from Peacehaven takes something, and I don't take that lightly. I try to make the first step as easy and unpressured as it can possibly be.

Start the conversationFinding support in Peacehaven
My counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. For free NHS talking therapy in Peacehaven, you can refer yourself directly to Health in Mind, the East Sussex NHS Talking Therapies service, with no GP referral needed. You can also find your nearest service through the NHS Talking Therapies finder.
Seeing me privately usually means 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 are waiting for NHS therapy, beginning privately can be a way to make a start now rather than putting things off, and we can always work in whatever way fits best alongside what is already in place.
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.
