Psychodynamic Psychotherapist Brighton, Hove & Online

Therapy · Hove & Online

Psychotherapy in
Hove and online.

I offer psychodynamic psychotherapy for adults and young people, working with a wide range of difficulties. Sessions take place at my consulting room in Hove, or online via secure video for clients across the UK.

What I Do

A space to understand yourself more deeply.

I work psychodynamically, which means I'm interested not just in the symptoms or difficulties you're experiencing, but in the deeper patterns, experiences and relationships that shape them. Rather than offering quick techniques to manage symptoms, the aim is genuine, lasting understanding, so that old patterns have less of a grip on your life.

Sessions are weekly, 50 minutes each, and take place either in person at my consulting room on The Drive in Hove, or online via secure video. Many people find online sessions just as effective as meeting in person, and it can be a practical option if you're outside Brighton & Hove or have a busy schedule.

Areas of Work

What therapy with me can help with.

Anxiety →
Persistent worry, panic, and a sense of dread, understanding what anxiety is protecting you from.
Depression →
Low mood, numbness, and the heaviness of daily life, exploring what lies beneath.
Trauma →
Past and present effects of difficult experience, worked with carefully and at your own pace.
Relationships →
Patterns of disconnection, conflict, or repetition, and where they come from.
Addiction →
Compulsive behaviour and what it's managing, in a non-judgmental space.
Adolescents →
A confidential space for young people aged 15 to 25 navigating identity, pressure and change.
Therapy for Therapists →
Personal therapy for trainees and qualified practitioners, confidential and separate from training.

What to Expect

Getting started.

1

Get in touch

Call or message me to arrange an initial conversation. There's no pressure, and no obligation, it's simply a chance to talk about what's brought you to consider therapy.

2

An initial session

We'll meet, in person or online, for an initial session. I'll listen carefully and we can begin to talk about what you're experiencing, at whatever pace feels right.

3

Deciding together

Afterwards, we can talk about whether working together feels right, and if so, agree on how we might proceed. Sessions are typically weekly, 50 minutes each.

4

Ongoing work

Some people find a focused piece of work over several months is enough. Others continue for longer. We review how things are going as we go, and you're always free to take a break or end when it feels right.

Fees

Straightforward and transparent.

My standard fee is £75 per session. I also offer a small number of lower-cost places for people on lower incomes, please mention this when you get in touch if cost is a concern.
