Transpersonal Counselling in Brighton
I offer a protected space for you to explore your different needs and feelings, and reflect on your hopes and wishes - some of these may not yet be known. That's the magic: it's a place of discovery! I value working collaboratively to support your wellbeing and aspirations. This can include enhancing the quality of your relationships, being more creative in your life, and developing qualities that allow you to express what is most important to you. I have been in practice for nearly 30 years, working internationally with different cultures, and this has given me a broader perspective and appreciation of diverse points of view.

Do you feel stuck, disconnected from yourself, or as though something important is missing in your life — even if, on the surface, things seem “fine”? You might be struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, or a sense of being lost, unsure who you really are or what you want in life.
I specialise in working with people who want more than just coping strategies — people who are interested in understanding themselves more deeply, making sense of their inner world, and finding greater meaning, authenticity and direction in their lives.

Who do you want to be? How do you imagine your best self and your desired relationships with others? I bring many years of experience of working through emotional distress and traumatic stress to therapeutic relationships to enable flourishing and joy. I work with people individually, in couples and in groups, thinking together about intergenerational patterns and the influences of culture.
All my work is relational, as hurt and neglect happens in relationships and our deepest healing comes from reparative relationships. And the difficulties we experience individually are mirrored in our feelings about being in the world.

Drawing on Psychosynthesis, an Integrative, Transpersonal model, I will work with you as you gently explore the stories within yourself.
The Joy of my work is meeting people from many walks of life, each with their own unique story. I am an experienced counsellor within the LGBTQ+ community (of which I am a part). I also have lived experience of neurodiversity and have supported many neurodivergent clients. I work affirmatively with these communities although my practice is open to all. Many of us struggle to make sense of ourselves or to find belonging. You may be living with anxiety or depression or wanting to explore spiritual or relational issues. Maybe you are experiencing a difficult transition or longing for change but feeling stuck or hopeless.

Life can feel hard - even overwhelming at times - but it doesn't have to stay that way. Often, people find talking to someone who understands can help to shift difficult feelings and allow them to fully engage with life once more. Perhaps you feel stuck? Anxious, angry, depressed, or in emotional pain? Maybe you notice your relationships are unsatisfactory, they always follow the same pattern? Or maybe life, with all its demands, is just grinding you down? Spending some time exploring these issues with a trained counsellor can offer insight, clarity and relief.

Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or weighed down by things they can’t easily put into words—grief, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, birth trauma, identity questions, or unshakeable deep tiredness. They want to feel more at ease in themselves, more connected, and less alone.
I offer a warm, trauma-informed space where we move at your pace. Whether you're neurodivergent, LGBTQ+, a parent, navigating childhood wounds, or have a child who is struggling—I'll meet you with care, curiosity, and respect. You don’t need to have the ‘right words’ to begin.
Together, we’ll explore what’s happening

My training in Transpersonal counselling is integrative and so uses a range of approaches.
I offer a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and feel supported as we explore the difficulties you're facing. You may feel anxious, overwhelmed, low, or not sure where to begin — and that’s completely okay. You don’t need to have everything figured out. We can explore whatever you’re bringing gently, safely, and at your pace.
You are invited to bring all parts of yourself — even those that may feel messy, difficult or hidden. You are welcome to express what may feel unsayable or unthinkable to you. Together, we’ll explore the experiences, patterns, and beliefs that shape your life.

You may find yourself repeating painful relationship patterns, struggling to trust others, feeling emotionally overwhelmed, or questioning your worth in close relationships. Perhaps you have experienced relationships that left you feeling unseen, unsafe, or deeply hurt. Even when life appears “ok” on the outside, relational trauma can quietly shape how you connect, cope, and view yourself. I specialise in working with adults affected by relational trauma, attachment wounds, and the lasting emotional impact of difficult or inconsistent relationships.

Transpersonal Counsellors
How does transpersonal therapy work?
Transpersonal therapy focuses on a patient’s spirituality and meaning in life. Transpersonal therapists might borrow from Eastern traditions as well as Western psychology. They may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork to produce altered states of consciousness. The therapist helps the patient to access their consciousness and spirituality to work through difficult mental states.
How long does transpersonal therapy last?
Because the goal is to understand a person as a whole, including their spirituality, treatment can range from months to a year or beyond. While patients learn the philosophy behind transpersonal therapy during treatment, they can also practice its principles throughout life after therapy sessions have ended.
Is transpersonal therapy effective?
Patients have found success with transpersonal therapy; this method is useful in improving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, identity, fears, relationship problems, and other concerns. Improvements in problem areas can continue even after transpersonal therapy ends, as individuals can utilise the tools they’ve learned during treatment sessions.
What are the limitations of transpersonal therapy?
There is some research on the effectiveness of transpersonal therapy, but empirical support for this therapy approach is sparse. It does not have the robust evidence base of other forms of therapy, such as cognitive behavioural therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy.
