Bupa Counselling in Shoreham-by-Sea

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

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’ve practiced as an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist since 2009 and mental health nurse for the past 20 years for the NHS and private sector. Both professions combined enable me to work with mild to severe mental health conditions. I have a special interest working with individuals from Black and Minority Ethnic communities and mixed heritage. I can also provide clinical supervision for newly qualified CBT therapists. I am currently working towards my BABCP Supervision Accreditation. My approach is curious and collaborative. I will endeavour to tailor the course of treatment to meet the individual’s needs.

I am an accredited CBT Therapist and EMDR practitioner with many years experience of working in NHS physical and mental healthcare settings. My aim is to provide a CBT or EMDR approach, tailored to your goals of therapy and provide you with strategies to promote recovery and enable you to engage more fully with life and enjoyable activities. I also offer specialised CBT for people who are struggling with psychological distress that may be associated with physical health conditions. Therapy for health conditions is aimed at improving psychological wellbeing and can help people improve management of their physical health condition.

I am a warm and compassionate Consultant Clinical Psychologist registered with the British Psychological Society, Health and Care Professions Council, and the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies.
 I have over 15 years experience in the NHS and have worked in various positions and different contexts, working with adults and young people. My most recent post was as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist working across three prisons in Surrey. I have extensive experience of providing psychological therapy, draw on the latest evidence, and tailor the therapy to your current needs and presenting difficulties.

I am a Relate trained relationship counsellor with over 20 years experience. I am very passionate about helping clients move forward and I often challenge and draw upon a vast array of tools to help clients get out of a "stuck" place. My practice offers a wide range of therapies from a variety of approaches to help individuals, couples, children and adolescents with a spectrum of difficulties and symptoms. We are passionate about getting you to the place you want to be. Each counsellor is trained in a range of approaches which enables us to tailor our approach to suit each individual or couple,

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.

You may be looking for therapy because of a particular difficulty; relationship issues or struggling to develop a relationship. Or It could be that anxiety or depression is something that you're fed up and exhausted with carrying inside. Therapy, good enough therapy offers you a space to talk through whatever it is that's holding you back. If you're looking for a safe and confidential space to not only be heard, understood and thought about, but a space to reconsider your struggle from a different perspective, then get in touch.

I work to help my clients transform their current mental health, relationship or life challenges into opportunities for profound personal growth fuelled by greater self-understanding and consistent behavioural change. My approach uses only evidence-based psychological science. My aim is to make psychological therapy restorative and regenerative through the use of uplifting collaborative methods that move my clients towards leading a more meaningful fulfilling and enjoyable life (even when emotional pain and mental suffering are present). I'm happy to answer any questions you might have so feel free to get in touch for a quick chat.

Life can be really hard sometimes, difficult things happen or people struggle emotionally for a variety of reasons. Lots of people need support at some time in their lives for themselves or people they care for. I genuinely believe that most people who are struggling want to improve their situation and need support to enable them to be and feel the best they can. However, just because you did not cause all your problems does not mean you do not have to work to try to make things better. That is where I can help, providing support, therapy and specialist assessment for young people and adults.

The clinic is a non-judgemental, respectful environment in which people can speak freely about what’s wrong. As a trained counsellor, I encourage my clients to develop insight into self-damaging or limiting thought and behaviour patterns - and I help them make positive change and move forward into a happier life. It could be depression, stress and anxiety, bereavement and loss, cross-cultural issues, life changes or an abusive relationship. The Crysalis clinic is available to anyone who is struggling to cope.
