Experiential Therapy Counselling in Portslade

Choosing the right therapist can feel impossible especially when you're already feeling low, overwhelmed or disconnected. I offer a free first session so you can meet me and see if you think you'd like to work together. I’m down to earth and approachable and will create a supportive space for you and all your feelings so you can explore whatever it is that’s weighing you down. I want you to feel truly seen and heard. Often that’s all it takes to find a fresh perspective but I can also push and challenge you to help break away from whatever it is that’s been holding you back. You don’t have to figure everything out on your own.

I work with people on an individual basis and tailor the therapy to their needs. I believe that part of the healing process is in the therapeutic relationship between the counsellor and the client. I work one to one with individuals, couples and facilitate therapeutic groups. My experience includes supporting people with addictions, mental health issues, identity, anger, relationship difficulties and other stresses. I am an experienced counsellor and supervisor providing one to one and group support.

If you are looking for someone to discuss issues affecting your well-being or preventing you from leading a fulfilling and rewarding life, psychotherapy or counselling can help bring about the changes you want to make. You may decide you need only a few sessions to deal with concerns that have begun to dominate and disrupt your life, or you may want longer term psychotherapy/counselling. The aim of therapy is to create an atmosphere of safety, in which exploration, understanding and growth can flourish.

I’m a psychotherapist, lecturer & supervisor specialising in trauma and longer term therapy. I was the trauma lead for the counselling service of TfL for 6 years & currently teach psychotherapy at Regent’s University London. I integrate different approaches to therapy including EMDR, psychoanalytic and humanistic ways of working. A primary focus of the work tends to be on relationships, recognising patterns and exploring different ways to relate to yourself and others.

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. Counselling is an opportunity to give yourself the time and space to imagine who you want to be. Sometimes fear and shame make us stuck and disconnected from others and not able to ask for what we want. Therapy can help you free yourself and open connection.

You may be feeling confused and need support to gain clarity, or want to explore on a deeper level what is stopping you from feeling content.
