Attachment-based Counselling in Brighton
I'm trained in couples therapy through Relate and work integratively, drawing on systemic, psychodynamic, and attachment-based approaches.
Does your relationship feel stuck? Are you arguing about the same things, or has the silence between you become harder to bridge? Maybe you're working through an affair, navigating infertility or childlessness, or finding that life changes have pulled you apart rather than brought you closer.
In our work together, we'll look at what's happening between you—the patterns that keep showing up, how you communicate (or don't), and what might be underneath the conflict or distance. My approach is collaborative and non-judgmental. I draw on systemic, psychodynamic, and humanistic perspectives to help you understand each other.

Karen Grey – Founder of Hear4u Counselling
I am passionate about supporting adults, young people, and families who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or at a crossroads in life. I believe that within each person lies the capacity for growth, healing, and positive change, even during life’s most challenging moments. Sometimes we simply need a safe and compassionate space to pause, reconnect with ourselves, and find clarity.
My role is to walk alongside you with warmth, empathy, and authenticity, offering a supportive, non-judgemental environment where you feel truly heard and understood. Together, we gently explore what’s going on for you.

I work integratively, drawing from relational, existential, humanistic, psychodynamic, and attachment-based approaches to support you in processing difficult emotions and experiences.
You may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, sad, or experiencing a quieter sense of stuckness, fear, or grief that needs some attention. I offer a warm and attentive space where you can feel safe to explore the roots of what is going on for you and deepen self-understanding and insight. I work integratively, drawing on a range of approaches to support you in processing difficult feelings and experiences. I am also currently completing further training in Processwork, an embodied, systemic, and relational approach that helps you unfold complex emotions, relationship dynamics, dreams, and bodily experience.

I work with people who want to understand themselves more deeply, not only to reduce anxiety or low mood, but to make sense of who they are, their relationships, and how they want to live.
Often, this includes people who are already quite reflective, but find that thinking alone hasn’t led to the clarity or change they’re looking for. There may be a sense of feeling stuck, unsettled, or unsure of direction, even when things appear to be functioning on the surface.

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.

I work with people who may be feeling a bit stuck or who find that the old ways of living no longer fit. You may be exploring trauma, identity, neurodivergence or spirituality. I offer a warm, steady space where we can make sense of what is happening and support you in moving towards greater self-understanding, grounding, and aliveness and living in the present.

I work to enable a person to be their natural self, to discover more and more how life wants them to be, even though life may have been full of difficult circumstances which have left their mark, and sometimes even destroying a person’s ability to live effectively and in harmony with themselves.

Hello, I am an experienced Psychodynamic Psychotherapist, Supervisor, and teacher, registered with the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) with an MSc in Psychotherapy.

Whatever has brought you here, I will listen carefully and work with you to understand what is happening, both consciously and at a deeper level.

From time to time everyone experiences stress, sadness, anger, relational conflict and grief which we often suffer alone. Accepting help from others can be difficult but maybe you feel you’ve toughing it out on your own for too long.
Whether you are struggling with an identifiable trauma or you’ve reached a point where recurring feelings are becoming unmanageable; a course of psychotherapeutic counselling may help you make sense of what is happening and enable you to gain and maintain some stability. Feelings of fear, anger, rejection and lack of confidence are difficult areas and discussing them with friends too raw and personal.

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re navigating challenges like trauma, relationship difficulties, or major life transitions. You may feel stuck, disconnected, or burdened by patterns and emotions that seem impossible to shift. I understand how daunting it can be to take the first step towards change, but you don’t have to face it alone. My role is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your experiences, process your emotions, and begin to heal.

Do you have issues and challenges that make you feel ‘stuck’?
Life can sometimes feel confusing, isolating, or simply too much to handle alone. You might be facing challenges that leave you feeling exhausted, confused, lost or disconnected from yourself and others.
I can help you work through life’s challenges. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space where we can explore what's going on for you, at your own pace through the therapy process. Together, we can work towards understanding patterns, easing emotional struggles and finding a way forward that is more manageable and authentic for you.

I work with individuals aged 16+ who may be coming to terms with the realisation that something in their life is not working for them, it's working against them. They want to come to terms with it and/or work on changing it. This could be a combination of issues. A past experience, identity issues, overwhelming emotions or relationship struggles to name a few. They want to live a life that aligns with them better, be present in their lives and gain resilience if life becomes difficult again. Therapy offers the possibility for this.

Many people have had an experience of therapy in the past and it has not produced the results they wanted. This in part can be due to the person going to see a therapist who is trained in one specific therapeutic modality (approach), who then tries to make the client fit that one approach. Collaboratively, we will work together to help you feel better, happier, more in control and confident in who you are as a person. As you begin to understand yourself and why you do things more, this will open you up to greater awareness in all parts of your life; home, work and relationships.

Hello I’m Selene. I have 20 years of experience as a counsellor. I am a warm and open-minded person with a good sense of humour. I offer a welcoming and confidential space where we can together create an empowering therapeutic relationship. I believe you are an expert in your own life and my role is to support and challenge you reconnecting with yourself and your strengths.
