Relationship Counselling for Saltdean
Saltdean, known for its restored Art Deco Lido and clifftop coast, sits east along the seafront. From streets near Saltdean Lido, the Undercliff Walk and the white cliffs to the edges of town, people come to work through what's been weighing on them, in person or online.
I work from a private room at Intergen House on Western Road in Hove. From Saltdean the coast road brings you west through Rottingdean and Brighton to the Hove office in around twenty to twenty-five minutes. Prefer not to travel? The same sessions are available online by secure video.
I see clients for relationship counselling in neighbouring areas too, including Rottingdean, Peacehaven, Woodingdean.
So whether you are searching for relationship counselling near you in Saltdean, or weighing up in-person against online sessions, you are in the right place.

What to expect
Why people from Saltdean choose to work with me
Rooted in the area
Based on the Sussex coast, I see people from right across Coast: Brighton to Newhaven, Saltdean included, every week.
The whole picture
We look beyond the symptom to what's underneath, because lasting change comes from the root, not the surface.
A private, discreet room
My Hove room is comfortable and confidential, an easy place to come to from Saltdean without bumping into anyone you know.
In person or online
Meet me face to face near Saltdean, or by secure video, and mix the two however suits your week.
How I work
Whether we meet in the room or on screen, the approach is the same. 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.
People come to me from Saltdean at all sorts of starting points. Wherever you are with it, you'll be met without judgement and without being hurried.
You can read more about relationship counselling and about my methods, sessions and fees. There is no obligation: we begin with a free fifteen minute call to see whether we are the right fit.
Start the conversationFinding support in Saltdean
My counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. For free NHS talking therapy in Saltdean, you can refer yourself directly to the Brighton and Hove Wellbeing 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.
