Most of my work is around anxiety, loss and relationship issues and I support people trying to make sense of their difficult feelings in a safe and non-judgemental environment.

Types of therapies offered
FEES £50 FULL PROFILE I believe everyone needs to feel valued, respected and supported. Therapy can facilitate exploration into the present and past experiences, enabling greater clarity of what has shaped us and how to create positive change. As unique individuals, we experience different situations, events or upbringings which shape and influence how we think, feel and behave. Talking to a Counsellor can help understand why sometimes you act in ways that do not serve you well.
Counselling can help gain awareness of unconscious behaviour to help regain more control and work to overcome issues. Counselling can help people identify and overcome the causes of their negative patterns, to create lasting change in the way they experience their lives and relationships. Counselling can be a very effective way of dealing with a variety of problems. Having trained for four years with the CPCAB I have a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. My training was integrative, which means I understand many different counselling approaches, so I can adapt how I work to best suit your needs. I have experience working with people of all ages and experiencing various issues. I also work within schools providing face-to-face sessions with young people from 5 years onwards. I also have 15 years of experience working with children and young people with emotional barriers to learning. I work in an empathic, non-directive approach, working alongside you to explore together issues you may bring, help gain clarity and work to bring positive change. It is important that you find a counsellor that you feel comfortable with, therefore I offer an initial 30-minute telephone consultation which gives us an opportunity to outline what brings you to counselling and to decide whether you would like to work with me. I am able to offer face-to-face sessions as well as online. The number of sessions required varies from person to person depending on the nature and severity of the issue, therefore I am able to offer both short and long-term counselling.

FEES Individuals (adults) £60 per 50-minute session Young people £60 per 45-minute session FULL PROFILE I am Roz Merrick (she/her) and I am a qualified counsellor. I work with adults and teenagers with a wide range of issues without judging or advising. Along with my private practice my counselling experience includes managing a busy counselling provision at a college for staff and students, working for YMCA Dialogue, counselling in schools, sixth form, Acorn Pregnancy Counselling Service, and the As You Are Charity in Southwick. I am also a University Mental Health Mentor, experienced at working with young adults.
The therapeutic relationship is key to the work we do together and, having had counselling myself, I am aware of the importance of finding the counsellor who feels the best ‘fit’ for you. Someone who listens, validates where appropriate, encourages, challenges, and supports so you can more fully discover who you are the choices you want for yourself. I follow your lead and work in the way most appropriate to you, helping to make sense of, address concerns, or work towards the improved self-esteem, empowerment, change or self-acceptance you desire. I am trained in a range of theories, though I am person-centred at my ‘core’, believing that you are the expert on yourself and your life (although at times help is required to remind ourselves of this). My aim is for you to feel safe to explore whatever life issues you are facing. Whatever your age, culture, heritage, gender, sexuality, faith or background, we will address the issues important to you. I am calm, warm, empathic and respectful in my approach, cultivating a relationship of trust where you are in the driving seat. I offer gentle challenge where appropriate. We can meet for an initial 50-minute session and then decide whether to continue to work together.

FEE Day time (5pm - 8pm) 50 min counselling session £45 in person and on line Evening (5pm - 8pm) 50 min counselling session £50 in person and on line Initial 30-minute consultation - no charge FULL PROFILE While many people encounter similar situations in life, I believe your personal experiences and its unique meaning are what truly matter. I offer a safe and supportive space for you to share how these experiences have affected you, at a pace that feels comfortable. These may be issues that have weighed on you for a while as you navigate daily life alongside managing deeper emotions. I understand starting therapy may feel unnerving, as it can be difficult to speak openly with an unfamiliar person. However, by developing a therapeutic relationship, we create a healing space for you, leading to valuable self-reflection, positive change, and empowerment. My empathetic and warm approach invites you to explore your feelings without fear of judgement and to be yourself.
My vocational background in personal development and care within the special needs sector, along with my own experience of therapy, inspired me to train as a counsellor. I have worked for organisations such as Carer’s Support and The Young People’s Shop, supporting clients of various ages and backgrounds with a wide range of issues including anxiety, grief and self-harm. I use an integrative approach in my work, which means I will draw on different counselling techniques, including a Person-Centred approach, focusing on the issues that matter to you the most and placing you at the heart of the therapy. There is also the option to use creative tools such as sand tray therapy, as an additional way to explore experiences, thoughts and feelings. This approach can be especially helpful when addressing traumatic events where it may be challenging to talk directly about these experiences. I would always ensure you felt comfortable using this approach beforehand. My professional practice is supported through regular supervision to review my work and to ensure I am maintaining ethical standards. In addition to this I regularly attend Continuing Professional Development training on mental health conditions and issues, to expand my knowledge and skills. I work with clients for a fixed number of sessions or on an open-ended basis. In all cases we regularly review how the therapy is progressing to ensure you are getting what you need. You are welcome to contact me for further information about my counselling service and to schedule a complimentary 30-minute consultation session.

In your search for a counsellor you might like to know what to expect from counselling and what counselling with me might be like. I focus on our relationship because trust and feeling safe is important in a counselling relationship-this takes time. I don’t give advice or tell you what to do; I also don’t push you into talking about anything that you are either unwilling or ready to share. I am interested in how you feel about you, your life and the people in it. I want you to have a space, where you can figure stuff out and I can help you to notice patterns, feelings, thoughts and behaviours that you may not be totally aware of. In the first instance we would meet for 30 minutes so we can get a sense of each other and whether we might work well together. I am qualified at a postgraduate level in counselling, I have a teaching qualification and a degree. I have counselled in the NHS, Employee Assistance Programmes, Colleges, Universities, GP Surgeries, Domestic Violence Shelters, and Private Practice. I spend most of my time training the next generations of counsellors and see clients on a Friday. I look forward to the possibility of meeting you. CONTACT |

Additional information: I offer a low income/unemployed rate and a standard rate. The standard rate is open to negotiation based on means (income) and mode (phone/ face to face or on-line). FULL PROFILE I am an integrative practitioner, drawing on principles of theories in humanistic psychotherapy. I have a person-centred focus on my clients, by bringing together different therapeutic approaches. This requires a broad range of understanding in a range of theories including (but not limited to) Transactional Analysis, Gestalt, and Attachment Theory. I have a licence to practice from the Counselling & Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body. I am a registered member of The British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists. I work with clients on multiple issues including relationships, stress, depression, anxiety, loneliness, grief, abuse, low self-esteem, trauma, and cross-cultural issues. I also have experience in dealing with workplace-related stress, work/life balance challenges, and managing complex relationships. I have over 30 years of corporate experience, mainly in the human resource sector, and have worked at all levels in administrative, middle management, and executive roles. My approach is to listen to you while creating a warm, friendly and supportive environment. Our relationship grows with openness, honesty, and trust. This is all underpinned by working to the BACP Ethical Framework and in confidence. My person-centred modality carries the core belief that we are all born innately good. Things happen to us along our journey in life. Learnt behaviour and experiences shape our thoughts and feelings in our development. We can repeat our reactions to circumstances when they occur in adulthood. We can become unconscious of our behaviours because of the busy lives we lead. It's as if our experiences stick to us like"papier mache' " in the developmental years, forming a different self. This can be an uncomfortable and unwelcome reality that we want to change in adulthood or when it becomes painful, but we often do not know how to. We can work together to strip this different self back so that you can reveal the authentic "you”, create a new reality and access your true potential. We can establish how we will work together during a free initial assessment session which typically lasts 30 minutes. I offer an open-ended contract that we review regularly to make sure you are getting what you need from our sessions. I offer face-to-face, online and telephone counselling. I attend regular supervision for all clients and am fully insured. CONTACT |

FEES Individuals £40 Couples £50 Block booking, student and concessionary discounts available. FULL PROFILE I am a qualified and experienced therapist for individuals and couples who can help you gain insight, understanding and self-acceptance and move towards a greater sense of calmness and clarity. We will start with how you are now - your anxiety, depression, conflict or numbness are the key to making sense of the responses which may no longer be serving you well. Gaining a fresh perspective on your inner self can help build resilience and purpose for living well, even in the face of future struggles and difficulties that life inevitably brings. As a Relate qualified Couples’ Counsellor I am experienced in supporting and facilitating couples to manage relationship difficulties at any stage of their life together. New or unexpected situations, major life crises or demanding work or caring responsibilities can open cracks in any relationship. Therapy can help you to find a way through the problems and create positive change in how you are with one another. Coping with crises, repairing or rebuilding your connection and improving your communication or intimate life are some of the aspects we might work on. I provide a safe and confidential space where you will be fully heard without judgement. From this secure base you can feel free to explore your feelings, relationships and experiences, bringing to light what you may not have been able to see on your own. Within the therapeutic relationship comes a depth of understanding which can bring relief and hope. Things in your life may not have unfolded as planned, relationships may not have gone as you expected. But emotional insight carries with it the possibility of new beginnings. My training includes a Post Graduate Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Therapy as well as a Level 5 in Relationship Counselling (Relate). For the past 9+ years I have been counselling people of all genders, backgrounds, sexual orientations and cultures. From this intensive training and experience we can draw on various approaches, tailored to your own needs to help you re-discover who you are meant to be. As a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) my practice is thoroughly grounded in professional ethics underpinned by ongoing supervision and continual professional development to ensure I provide a confidential, safe environment and that I am the best I can be for you.

FEES £60 per session PROFILE I am a Body-Psychotherapist working across Brighton, Hove and Worthing. Before retraining and working as a psychotherapist, I spent over a decade working for the YMCA as a support worker. It was both a challenging and rewarding role working with homeless young people. Working with the young people, their struggles, traumas and challenges with addiction gave me a strong foundation for retraining as a psychotherapist. My experience in body work began with my lifelong practice of Martial arts which later led me on to explore Yoga, forms of massage, movement practices and ultimately Body-Psychotherapy. A bit about Body-Psychotherapy. Body-psychotherapy is an approach that works on the understanding that our life experiences, emotions and relationships are not only experienced in the mind but are lived through and impact our bodies in many different ways. Alongside talk therapy, techniques such as Biodynamic massage (a form of bodywork & psychotherapeutic touch), breathing and movement exercises are used to engage with the body bringing awareness to how our experiences are lived and felt, opening the possibility of lasting change. Body psychotherapy is a different process for each person and I aim to support my clients in what feels right for them each session within a safe and confidential space. Training, qualifications, accreditations, and memberships I am a qualified Body-Psychotherapist and Bio-dynamic massage therapist. I trained at Cambridge Body Psychotherapy Centre and am registered with the UKCP and AMBT. CONTACT |

PROFILE Hi, I'm Steph. Accessing counselling is not always easy and yet you have made it here. Welcome and thank you for taking the time to read my profile. You may be seeking counselling due to stress, anxiety, depression, perhaps you feel a little lost or out of sorts. You could be seeking counselling for self-discovery or a desire to explore who you are. The reasons are endless and so unique to you as an individual. Therefore, I offer an initial phone call so we can determine what you'd like to get from counselling and whether I'm best suited to support you with this. I’m a qualified therapeutic counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). The BACP Ethical Framework underpins all my work and ensures that I'm working safely, ethically and in your best interest. The way in which I work is from a person-centred core. This means that our work will be ultimately collaborative. I won't offer you advice on how to get out of a dark cave but I will come and sit in there with you. As everyone is so unique I work integratively and have training in but not exclusive to Transactional Analysis and Attachment, I enjoy working creatively in a Trauma informed way. With these tools we can see what resonates with you and your story. We can find a candle to bring some light in. I have experience in working in mental health support in a variety of settings as well as working in a community-based charity alongside my private practice. I have a real passion to offer people a space to feel heard, seen and listened to without judgement. CONTACT |

FEES PROFILE Hypnotherapist & hypnosis trainer, General Hypnotherapy Register, Senior Practitioner & Supervisor Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool for making lasting changes because it works directly with your subconscious mind. I use many hypnotic techniques & processes & work in a bespoke way, rather than a fixed process or framework, to meet the needs of the unique client. My clients say that I am kind & compassionate. The use of hypnosis is often surprisingly effective, often because it hasn’t been tried before for the matter in hand. Sometimes, hypnosis is perceived as ‘mind control’, but in my experience, hypnosis connects you deeply to your own mind & inner world. I have been in the coaching & therapy space for over two decades so have accumulated a lot of experience in using hypnotherapy in Worthing to help people with the following:
Typically, my clients feel out of control and are unable to find a solution to the problem in hand themselves, or with self-help. My longest package is 6 hours long, due to the efficient leverage of the subconscious mind with hypnosis. Mostly, my hypnotherapy sessions in Worthing are two hours in length, which I find allows for deep hypnotic states for deep long-lasting transformation. A popular service I offer is stop smoking or vaping in 2 hours. This is a single session therapy and incorporates several techniques. Some of my clients had smoked for over 30 years, and this session stopped them smoking. I offer a free 15 consultation for anyone considering hypnotherapy in Worthing, which can be booked via my website https://www.honeylansdowne.co.uk/hypnotherapy-in-worthing where you will also find my hypnotherapy in Worthing services & prices I offer mindfulness sessions and wellbeing talks in Worthing or online, for businesses looking to support their staff with mental health & wellbeing.

As a humanistic counsellor, I can draw on a range of theoretical approaches, adapting each session to your individual needs. Drawing on vast experience working across the health and education sectors, I am experienced working with adults, from 18 years of age and with issues such as anxiety, depression, loss and bereavement, low self esteem and confidence, relationship difficulties and redundancy along with many other life challenges. I have worked with many older adults who have found the support of a counsellor invaluable. I offer short or long term counselling, which we will discuss at our first session. Sessions are 50 minutes long in the tranquil space in Worthing. As a qualified Coach, I am also able to tailor our sessions to a coaching approach, with a developmental, goal oriented focus.

FEES Fees: Currently £35.00 per session; to be reviewed once I qualify. PROFILE Hi, my name is Christina & I am an intuitive, one-to-one, psychotherapeutic counsellor studying with The Link Centre who are a training establishment for Transactional Analysis. I have completed the required clinical years training & have one final aspect of my Portfolio to complete to qualify for a ‘Diploma in Counselling’ (Level 6). I am initially offering low-cost sessions, which will be reviewed once I qualify. The main modality of my counselling training is Transactional Analysis, but I like to work in a holistic way, recognising that people are spiritual, physical, emotional & psychological beings. I aim to provide a safe, non-judgemental space where you can rest, breathe, ground & take the time you need to explore whatever may be happening in your life. I can support you to create an understanding of & develop awareness of your own inner resources & provide skills which can be used to help you process your emotions & move forward in life. Are you feeling confused? Overwhelmed? Unhappy? Maybe something has happened in your life which has impacted you in some way. You are not broken but being prepared for the next stage of your growth/evolution. I believe that just as our life experiences are unique, so too is the path to healing & that symptoms are the doorway to that healing. I will guide you to find the right path for you. I have extensive personal experience of the psychotherapeutic journey; my own life has been transformed through therapy. I have been volunteering for an online low-cost counselling service with ‘UK Counselling Network’ since Feb 2022. My previous work & voluntary experience has been with vulnerable adults in a variety of roles. Do contact me to arrange a free initial consultation, so that you can decide if I am the right counsellor for you. I look forward to hearing from you.
