Counselling in Midhurst

As a qualified psychotherapist, I integrate a person-centred approach with existential and psychodynamic methods to provide therapeutic support for individuals. For many people the first and most challenging step can be to acknowledge the need for help. I am committed to helping others to find a way of being and of fulfilment in life, by providing a confidential, safe and non-judgemental environment to explore and reflect on difficult and often overwhelming feelings. In my experience, working together with a professional therapist can be the turning point in unlocking life's potential through a process of psychological growth.

Hello, I'm Karen, a qualified Adult Psychotherapist working face-to-face in Midhurst and online via Zoom. I recognize that starting therapy can be daunting, but being able to explore any issues that are worrying you with a trained therapist can bring enormous change and freedom. I have learnt from experience how the past and present can influence our lives and the way we function on a daily basis. I always start with a consultation, to explore your needs and goals, no matter how difficult they may seem, we can then determine the best way of achieving these together. There is no commitment at this stage.

All clients, have the basic expectations and the desire to be listened to, understood, helped, and healed. I offer this. I am a calm, genuine, and non-judgmental individual and have the experience to hold your difficulties safely and securely. My noticing working with people is, no one comes to therapy because they feel OK. There are difficulties that underlie each and every one of us. I have had my issues and you will or have had yours. I do find similarities with some clients who have similar difficulties. The similarities are the underlying trauma of difference. There is the sense that you are alone.

Welcome - You may need help with an emotional difficulty or a challenging experience or you just might not feeI quite 'right'. I aim to offer a safe, client-led, committed and sensitive space where you are free to explore whatever it is in your life that is calling for your attention and free to choose your course to connect you to a sense of purpose and meaning. I hold the overarching concept that life's challenges alongside our innate longing to live more abundantly offer opportunities for transformation. This can be difficult work but the benefits can be great.

Working with your felt-sense experience of the present moment, and with my support, body psychotherapy will enable you to explore your story and the challenges you face in your life. When we listen deeply to the body and allow what needs to be expressed to be heard and witnessed, the magic of healing unfolds. I work with intuition, somatic resonance, talking, therapeutic touch and energetic healing to support you through your emergent healing process.

There is always possibility for change and healing. Whatever you might be experiencing, we can work together to find that change and healing you are seeking.

Therapy can be transformative - so why struggle alone? Whether you are in deep emotional pain, anxious, stressed or perhaps frustrated with your life, exploring the issues in a safe setting can be empowering. In a world that can feel frantic yet lonely, it's hard to dedicate time to yourself. But you are important: you deserve an opportunity to reassess 'how you got here', to be more self-aware and find ways to be truly happy. I offer the chance to be really heard - with empathy and without judgement - in total confidence. We'll work together to understand what is troubling you at a depth, duration and pace that feel right to you.

I am very personable and offer a warm welcome to all my clients, from the minute we speak. I am passionate about counselling and the positive change it can bring. I believe the therapeutic relationship between us is the key to enabling your therapy to be successful. I offer counselling through a person-centered approach; I can’t wave a magic wand and make things better for you, but I can be alongside you as you explore your own thoughts and feelings. I offer a safe space which is confidential, non-judgemental, and accepting of you and your needs. Together we can explore the difficulties and challenges you may be experiencing.

Hi. I'm Dr. Liz Saunders and I'm a qualified doctor and a CBT therapist. I have experience in using CBT for many different types of problems and with people of all ages, however, many of my clients are young people who are struggling with anxiety or confidence issues at college, university or work or with difficult interpersonal relationships. I have a particular interest in helping young people to reach their full potential academically and professionally and in their lives more generally.

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist and an ISST Certified Advanced Schema Therapist. I have over 15 years of extensive training and experience, working with adults overcome difficult periods in their lives where they struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, relationship conflict, parenting struggles, work and university stress, procrastination, dissociation, and self-esteem issues. In addition, I have special interest in helping women negotiate significant life transitions in their lives such a pregnancy, perimenopause and menaupause and help improve their emotional wellbeing.

Hi, I'm Suzy. Are you looking for an empathic, experienced therapist? It's really hard to grow in isolation and create change on your own ... and it takes courage to seek support ... but through counselling, you could get to a place where your life feels more comfortable - a place you really want to be and somewhere you could flourish and feel content. I can't wave a magic wand but I can support you in reaching the goal of living your best life. I will give you my undivided attention - 'the most valuable thing you can do for another human being' (Rich Roll) - and I really look forward to talking to you.

Hello and welcome my name is Isabel and I am based in Arundel in West Sussex, I offer counselling to suit your needs either face to face or online at a time and pace that works for you. Life can be challenging at times, and counselling can provide a supportive, safe, and confidential space to explore relationships and events in our lives that might make us feel overwhelmed or helpless.

Welcome. You may be here because of a period of crisis or for support to manage a longer term issue. Finding a balance between work, relationships and family can be difficult especially in these challenging times. Through our work together I can help you gain an increased sense of well-being, control and resilience. There are many reasons why we reach out for help in times of confusion and pain and you do not have to be alone.

Difficulties addressed in therapy can include anxiety, fear, depression, sadness, loneliness, stress, work or relational issues. Therapy offers a space to explore your situation in a confidential and non-judgmental setting.

I love working with couples & individuals who want to make changes in their lives. Perhaps for you it's a struggle with anxiety or depression. Maybe you are unhappy with a relationship, feel trapped, betrayed or dissatisfied with how things are. I offer couples weekly or intensive half and full day sessions to really kick start your progress towards a happier future. Possibly you hate your job and want to do something different but you're not sure what or how to make that big step forward into a different world. Perhaps you've lost your confidence and your self esteem has hit rock bottom and you need a positive way forward?

Meaningful change is hard work. I believe having someone in your corner makes it more possible. I will meet you where you're at: in your pain, your uncertainty, and all the places in between. I have expertise that can help you to unravel your difficulties and find the solutions from within. This type of support is for people in crisis as well as those who are feeling dissatisfied, stuck or in need of more support. I will support you to develop a more attuned relationship to yourself, your body, and your experience. This can enable greater awareness of choices and the possibility for change.

Clients generally seek me out when they want to improve or make a change in their relationships. Counselling can actively improve a couple's communication and potentially make sense of unhelpful patterns of communication and/or behaviour. Clients say that their relationships are stuck in a rut and that the communication and often their sex life, that once was easy, is now fraught with difficulties. Very often people struggle with their sexual difficulty in silence, feeling embarrassed and ashamed, unable to discuss their issues with anyone. Counselling and psychosexual therapy helps both individuals and couples to overcome this.

I can assist you in gaining insight & understanding into your history to help you make clearer decisions about your future. As we work together to understand the way you are, the easier it will be for you to make decisions to make your life, career and relationships happier, more balanced and more empowered. In therapy you will have a unique chance to be authentic without self-censorship or consideration of others; where the focus is solely on you. As there are so few chances to encounter this kind of interaction, this acts as a powerful catalyst for change and transformation.

Is something negatively impacting your life? Perhaps you're struggling with negative habits, indecision or low self-confidence? Perhaps you feel stuck or repeating unhelpful patterns? I am passionate about empowering you to change & achieve your goals. You will feel heard & supported. I am highly experienced in working online & face to face with you using individually tailored, proven techniques. Down-to-earth, my uniqueness lies with my extensive life experience, my ability to understand, build trust & gain results. I strive to create a safe, confidential & supportive space for you to explore, grow & change.
