Anxiety Therapy
in Hove.

A confidential space to understand and work through anxiety, with an experienced psychotherapist based in Hove.

Living with anxiety.

Anxiety can show up in many ways. Perhaps you find yourself lying awake, turning the same thoughts over and over. Maybe you avoid situations that feel overwhelming, or feel a persistent sense of dread you can't quite explain. Sometimes anxiety feels sharp and sudden, a panic response that seems to come out of nowhere. Other times it's a low hum in the background of daily life that you've almost stopped noticing.

Whatever it looks like for you, anxiety is exhausting. And it can feel very isolating, especially when, from the outside, everything looks fine.

Understanding what's beneath it.

Anxiety is rarely just about the thing that seems to trigger it. Beneath the surface, there are often experiences of loss, rejection, or feeling fundamentally misunderstood, sometimes stretching back further than we realise. In therapy, we work to understand not just the anxiety itself, but what it might be protecting you from, and where it came from.

A calm, confidential space.

I offer a calm, confidential space where we can begin to make sense of what you're experiencing, at a pace that feels right for you. Using a psychodynamic approach, we'll explore the roots of your anxiety, the patterns that keep it in place, and what might need to shift for things to feel different.

This isn't about being given techniques to manage symptoms, though relief often comes. It's about genuinely understanding yourself more deeply, so that anxiety has less of a grip on your life.
