Counselling in Littlehampton

I’m a queer person-centred therapist and clinical upervisor offering long or short term, individual and couples/ relationship counselling online and in Worthing/Brighton. I use the pronouns ‘she/they’. I work with adults (18+) who have a range of life experiences including trauma/abuse, chronic illness, alcohol issues, sexual health, sexuality and gender. I work with people from a range of cultural backgrounds including queer, poly and and kink communities, neurodiversity, asexuality, and people who identify or questioning across the gender spectrum. I am committed to providing an inclusive, safe and confidential space.

I am a Counselling Psychologist and highly specialist cognitive behavioural (CBT) therapist. CBT is the recommended therapy for Depression and Anxiety by the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) and the NHS. I trained at the Institute of Psychiatry in London, a world leader in CBT practice & research. It is a highly skilled active therapy that explores links between thoughts, behaviours & emotions to help you break free from negative cycles that might be holding you back. I also adopt somatic based techniques to provide a holistic whole body approach based on latest research, especially for clients with trauma.

Do you or your child want a diagnostic assessment for ADHD, Autism/ASD or Tics/Tourettes, or need support coping with these conditions? Or maybe anxiety, low mood, difficulties with relationships, or problems at school, college or work are holding you or your child back? In a complimentary initial session we will explore this together, and make a plan: this could be with me, or one of my colleagues at Neurodiverse Online if I think they are a better fit. We're a small, caring & highly expert team of psychologists working with neurodivergent adults and children.

My name is Sarah, and I am a pluralistic counsellor who uses different modalities to suit your needs. I will work alongside you to help you become more self-aware about your feelings and develop coping strategies to achieve your goals.

I can imagine, given that you are here, there may be something in your life that is causing you discomfort. Welcome, and well done for taking the first step towards getting some support. Some people seek out therapy because they have felt depressed, anxious or angry for a long time; others may want help for relationship difficulties, self-destructive habits or a chronic illness that is interfering with their emotional or physical well-being. Sometimes, unexpected changes or circumstances also bring people into therapy - for example, going through a divorce, feeling overwhelmed by a new job, or grieving the loss of a family member.

Welcome! I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist working in the NHS and private practice. I completed my PhD in Psychology and Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at King's College London. I integrate principles from the therapeutic models recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) Guidelines. These include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), third-wave approaches (see here: www.draurorafalcone.com/therapy), Psychodynamic, and Systemic models. I am an Accredited Positive Parenting Programme (Triple P) Provider and an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) trained Therapist.

Struggling with difficult thoughts and feelings can be horrible, but asking for help and embarking on change can be scary too. I can help you to discover a way forward from where you're feeling stuck, be the person who truly listens and understands your unique experience, and helps you to understand it. There may be lots of reasons why you're considering counselling - difficulties or worries in your emotional life, feeling distressed and needing help with a specific issue, struggling to come to terms with a traumatic event or loss, or seeking a clearer perspective on your life, I can help you to explore and move on with living.

Contact me if you want to let go of dysfunctional relationship patterns, irrational beliefs and self-sabotaging behaviours, and want to replace them with a more positive, conscious and proactive mode of being that leads to greater happiness, wellness and success. I am an experienced Counselling Psychologist who offers therapy from my practice in North Chelmsford. I provide a supportive and constructive space for you to explore difficulties and challenges you may be experiencing.

"Depression is the common cold of psychopathology and has touched the lives of us all" (Dr Martin Seligman). In my 20 year experience as a CBT therapist I have learned that Seligman is right - everybody will experience at one point in their life depression, anxiety or another form of mental health problems. Some of us will manage on their own, some of us will need help. Seeking help for stress and mental health problems should not have any stigma attached to it - it is one way of dealing with the impact of living in an imperfect world.

Let's work together to figure out the next steps to feeling better: Seeking help, as you are doing by searching this site, is a brave and important step in satisfying your own needs - in doing this, you are already creating some relief and a pathway towards yourself as you wish to be. You may feel lost or confused as to what comes next, but you have already shown that you can think in new ways and adapt in order to change a situation which isn’t working for you. Our task is to get in touch with feelings that can further open up your awareness, to allow change to happen.

I work on line providing a friendly and confidential service. I believe on line work is successful, efficient and encourages free and intimate communication. No need to travel. I value and offer face to face sessions when permitted. I have 15 years of experience in both psychotherapy dealing with complex problems and counselling offering help with day to day difficulties. I can help with anxiety, stress and depression as well as lack of purpose and feelings of meaninglessness. I assist with family and relationship difficulties and conflicts, including providing couples counselling. 3 key words: kindness, diversity and compassion.

As a registered practitioner psychologist with over 10 Years of experience in the national health service (NHS), I'm passionate about helping individuals create positive change in their lives. My approach integrates cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and eye movement desensitisation therapy (EMDR) to provide you with the tools and support you need to achieve your goals. In addition to my work in the NHS as a principal psychologist and clinical supervisor, I hold a small private practice. The aim of which is to provide safe and effective therapy to those seeking support outside of the NHS.

As a CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) therapist with a decade of NHS experience and BABCP accreditation, I work with a wide range of adult clients. Many of my clients experience self-doubt or low confidence, struggle with anxiety, or work hard to manage their mood, but repeatedly find themselves back at the bottom of the pit. All of this is despite working, trying, and struggling to make things better.

I am a chartered clinical psychologist with 15 years experience in mental health. Whilst working in the NHS, I have set up The Sycamore Private Practice so that people outside of mental health services can access support. I have worked with people, who have benefited from making sense of difficult or/and frightening experiences, improving their mood or lowering anxiety. If you would like a safe place in order to understand more about what is going on for you, or perhaps have specific areas that need a focus, we can do this together and at a pace that suits you. I have listed my areas of expertise and experience as a guide for you.
