Counsellor, MBACP

My approach to therapy is to create a reflective partnership with you in which you can better understand the challenges and struggles you are facing, and work out how you can respond to them. I will work to create a relationship with you in which you can feel safe enough to talk about difficult or painful experiences, thoughts and feelings. I will not judge you, no matter what you need to talk about. My aim is to help you start to connect with and feel differently about yourself. This can lead to greater self-awareness and acceptance.

Any number of issues could be the reason you're reading this now: anxiety, depression, bereavement. Perhaps you feel stuck, unsure what to do, or don't think you can change. Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed with, 'everything'. Perhaps now is the right time for you to be truly listened to. If this is the case then I can offer you my help.

Working with individuals and couples, online, I am an LGBTQ+ affirmative, trauma-informed psychodynamic therapist. Therapy involves a joint inquiry into the underlying beliefs and habitual ways of being and seeing that we carry. Regular sessions provide a reflective, confidential space for self-exploration and support, in which to look together at any areas of concern to you. As we begin to make sense of troubling, confusing or conflicting feelings and experiences, it can become possible to discover greater ease, choice and fulfillment in the present.

I have extensive experience in supporting people through life events and transitions such as bereavement, religious trauma and faith crisis. As a Christian psychologist I support Christians who wish to integrate their faith and mental wellbeing and those who wish to explore their faith and doubts (including scrupulosity). I’m registered with all major UK insurers.

I believe that every person has their own unique story. What happens in our lives as our story unfolds shapes who we are, how we see and experience the world and how we feel about it and fit within it. Counselling can help people discover who they are, learn about their relationships, understand past events, help them get a deeper understanding of themselves, who they are and learn new ways to live their lives. Counselling can help people change from feeling that their story is being written for them and learn how to start writing it for themselves. I currently have availability to take new clients.

Firstly, welcome to my profile. The start of our counselling relationship together begins here. Here you can read about me, as your future counsellor. Are you feeling you would like to make some changes in your life ? I can offer you a place to take some time-out to explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviour to unpick your issues. Counselling allows you to discuss your issue/s and any difficult feelings and emotions you may encounter in a safe, confidential environment. Simply, it is reflecting on who you are & want to be, exploring your thoughts, feelings & difficulties in more depth, whilst I support you achieving your goals

Counsellor, MBACP

I am a qualified and registered counsellor working in Saltdean in East Sussex. The type of counselling I subscribe to is called ‘humanistic’. Core to this approach is the belief that we each have within ourselves the self-knowledge and ability to identify our own problems and solutions. Sometimes, this can take a little time and some unpeeling of layers before we get to the core of who we really are and where we need to be.

I am a HCPC registered Clinical and Counselling Psychologist with an Italian background. I recently completed the training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the UK. I believe that therapy is, first of all, an encounter between two human beings. Therefore, I am committed to flexibly integrating scientific rigor with the numerous shades of human relationships. I use an integration model which draws upon Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment Theory, and Person-Centred Theory. Therapy is a confidential and safe space to explore your difficulties over a reasonable amount of time rather than in emergency.

When life is difficult, and there are hurdles that seem too hard to overcome, it can help to have someone to talk to. Someone who isn’t going to judge you, or tell you what to do, but will enable you to be how you’d like to be. I also work with couples - relationships can bring joy, but also challenges. Working together we can find a way to move forwards.

Counsellor, MBACP

I'm an experienced integrative therapist and work flexibly and dynamically with adults, young people, couples and families. Early relationships and life events may have shaken your ability to fully value yourself or others. You might be bereaved, struggling with a relationship, experiencing depression or anxiety. I'm objective and compassionate, offering support to connect with frightening or buried feelings. Letting go of strategies that no longer work for you, without pressure or expectation, can help you to find your own truth and a sense of who you really are.

You may or may not know in advance what the source of your difficulties may be. Part of our process is to explore together what has led you here. Every person is different. Amid the stresses of daily life, it’s easy to lose touch with our own deepest needs and feelings – until they become too painful or persistent to ignore.

Counsellor, MNCS Accred

At times we can struggle with our circumstances and relationships. This may result in feeling confused and overwhelmed. Traumas past and present impact upon our quality of life and coping mechanisms can fail or become unhelpful. Counselling allows some time and space to focus on your issues and it can provide insight and clarity. It's an opportunity for honest open communication, without the fear of judgement and negative repercussions. This self-exploration tends to aid growth and healing, ultimately resulting in change and acceptance. I support you rather than diagnose or label, being with you through life's challenges.

I am here to provide you with the support you need to help you process your thoughts and feelings, and explore how you might move forward in your life. I am non-judgemental, accepting of you and your experiences, and here to listen to and work with whatever is on your mind. While counselling can be challenging at times, it can also come as a huge relief and be experienced as liberating and growthful.
Sal Jefferies Coaching
If you’re feeling stressed, uncertain about your future and in need of support, there is help. If you’re asking deep questions about the way you are living and working then you may be ready to change. To get started, you don’t need confidence, motivation, self belief or goals; you need to a shift in perspective and a deeper connection with yourself. I integrate psychology, human behaviour, body intelligence and breath work to create the conditions for change. I work with people who think deeply and feel deeply and looking to change, evolve and grow.
