Overview

Taking a step into looking for a therapist is a great first step towards trying to move forward.

We source a therapist for many different reasons to help us reframe our thoughts which may be caused by lack of sleep, relationship and family concerns, financial issues, overload at work, imposter syndrome, phobias or maybe we just don’t know why we aren’t feeling like the best version of ourselves. Whatever the cause, we all deserve to feel like we have a positive future ahead of us.

I’m a fully qualified psychotherapist and hypnotherapist and work in solution focused therapy. We work together to help you rewire your brain to stop your negative thought loops and create new neural pathways that help you reframe your thoughts to a positive perspective.

I also work in partnership with Sussex Police Federation to provide service to their officers and specialise in working with clients with anxiety-related concerns, stress, depression and PTSD along with phobias and fears.

I encourage all clients to understand that they are the experts in themselves and for that reason, I would never tell you what you should do. My role is to empower you to come up with small weekly goals to help you become more confident, calmer and in control of your life.

Finding the right therapist for you is important and for that reason, I offer a free 1-hour initial consultation where we would discuss the reason why you have got in touch, what you can expect from sessions and also an explanation about why our brain behaves like it does when we feel under pressure or stressed.

The first part of a session is talking therapy where we focus on the here and now, not on the past and the second half of the session is hypnosis. By using positive suggestions, your conscious and subconscious work together to help you move forward.

We can work together face to face in my practice based in Lancing / Shoreham border or online, whichever suits you best. I offer a compassionate and nonjudgmental environment at all times.
