Counselling in Arundel

Life today seems to be overloaded by a variety of stress in many spheres of existence. What should be enjoyable and fulfilling sometimes turns out to be the very cause of suffering. In the midst of the busy-ness of life, we do not take the time to address this suffering and instead criticise and blame ourselves or others. This could potentially leave us feeling confused and ashamed. Shame does not heal the pain of suffering. Every human being has a need to be understood, accepted and validated because the human brain is wired to love and be loved.

Do you need someone to listen without judgment? Maybe you are looking to manage negative thoughts, to understand your patterns of behaviour and how to change these. Talking about things with me may help you process difficult feelings and give you the space to work out the why's, the wants, the needs and the how's. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, relationship/ family issues, low self-esteem, stress, abuse, life changes such as bereavement, loss of a job, illness. Counselling can help. We can explore these things together, no matter how big or little your problem seems. You are not alone.

We grow and change with our environment. We flourish in favourable conditions and feel we are slowed down by difficulties and stresses along the way. We adapt to what we face and sometimes through painful and complicated times we lose a sense of confidence in ourselves and who we are. Then it may be helpful to have someone with us so that we can identify for ourselves how to grow and move forwards. It is an opportunity to look at how we feel, what is important to us, to understand ourselves and feel more in touch with who we really are and who we want to be.

I recognize that sometimes life can feel hard and that it can really help to talk to someone. I offer a calm, open, empathetic, and non- judgmental space in which you can feel heard, understood and begin to make sense of things. Whether you come for short or longer-term work, my wish is that eventually you move forward into a future which feels right for you. I am a sensitive culturally aware, LGBTQI affirmative practitioner, who works with people from all walks of life and the community. Having completed level 1 of my EMDR training, I also offer these sessions, subject to assessment, at reduced cost.

People seek counselling for many different reasons. You may feel stuck in life, work, relationships or loss. Or struggling with depression, anxiety, low mood or low self-esteem. Many seeking counselling have experienced trauma in their past that is affecting the quality of their life now. Or perhaps someone has reached a time in their life when they seek self-development and psychological growth. Whatever your individual reason for seeking counselling, Clay Counselling offers you a safe, non-judgemental space to talk through your problems and move towards positive change, growth and acceptance.

I've been counselling since 1989, and have extensive experience of working with sexual abuse and trauma, parenting and attachment difficulties, identity and relationship issues, depression and anxiety, bereavement and loss. I don’t claim to be an ‘expert’ in any of these areas because everyone's response is different and what matters is you and your own unique experience of these difficulties. I am committed to collaborating with you to find the resilient, hopeful part of yourself that becomes expert in managing your challenges and is motivated by the smallest signs of progress towards your preferred future.

I am a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with a background in specialist NHS psychological treatment. I am the Director of Psychological Coaching Ltd, where i deliver a specialist psychological service to Grant Thornton UK LLP's Partners. I am the Mental Health Lead for the Cambridge Medical Academy (Cambridge University), where I train a global network of 800+ doctors and nurses in mental health. My research on improving access to mental health has been published internationally. I sit on a number of international Boards where I advise on mental health service design.

Thanks for stopping at my profile. I'm a qualified Psychotherapist & member of the BACP, UKCP & EMDR Association UK, based in Hove, Worthing & Haywards Heath (and online). I offer a compassionate, non-judgemental & empathic stance, and challenge where appropriate. My role is to help you understand the issues you bring to therapy, including your past experiences, determining patterns that haven't served you well & the reasons behind your distress. I assist you in altering unhelpful patterns to alleviate your emotional pain & work towards making the life changes that you want, while gaining more positive experiences of the world.

As an integrative psychotherapist I tailor my approach to meet your needs. Together we will develop tools to help you manage your thoughts and feelings so that you can have the relationships you want and pursue a meaningful life. If you are struggling with emotional pain, worry, anxiety or depression, I can provide a safe and confidential space to begin your recovery. During your introductory session you can get a sense of if and how we might work together.

It's not always easy to reach out and ask for support. We often feel that we can manage on our own or don't want to bother anyone with our thoughts and feelings. It can be hard to find a balance between work, relationships, family & other commitments to prioritise yourself. No matter what brings you to therapy the most important part is the relationship we will share. I aim to ensure you feel heard & give you a space to work through anything you want to bring to help you have a greater insight & self-awareness and I will walk alongside you on this journey. Counselling isn't a one size fits all package it's as individual as you are.

Hello, my name is Hazel (She/Her). Do you have something in your life that you want to stop, change or overcome? Many clients have come to work with me because I have experience in working with depression, anxiety, addictions, questioning sexuality and gender, and also relationship work including non-monogamy. I am a compassionate counsellor grounded in the person-centred approach, which believes that each person is unique, and has the resources within us to find the best way forward during difficult circumstances. I offer short or long-term sessions, either in person at my practice Worthing or Goring, or online or by telephone.

I am a somatic therapist & psycho-educator, with a professional background working with trauma & symptoms of trauma such as E.D's & addiction. Throughout my career, I've specialized in creative & compassionate approaches to support clients reconnect to an innate sense of wellbeing and connection. I work within a relational & somatic frame to support you to understand and befriend your self and nervous system; and how the past might live on in, & impact you in your present. We will collaboratively work together in supporting positive change in all areas of your life.

I have a specialist interest in working with people who have suffered or are suffering abuse. Abuse can happen to anyone, any gender any age any type such as physical, emotional, sexual and even financial. I will create a safe environment where it is warm and non judgemental. I will be open and genuine so we are able to work towards growth, change and your full potential. We can do this by talking, or creatively by art or a sand tray, which can bridge what is going on in the unconscious to the conscious to then become aware of what may be holding us back.

Whatever you are struggling with, whatever is on your mind, whatever is causing you difficulty - I am here to help. Whether it be relationship issues, mental health, stress, work or family - or indeed something else - please contact me and we can talk it through. I have experience, training and qualifications in working with many different people and different issues. Counselling with me will provide you with the space to talk, share, and work through your difficulties and the possible solutions together.
