Genevieve Picquart

Psychotherapist

I have 32 years experience and Senior Accredited. I tend to do longer term work with adults. 1 to 1 and couple work in private practice.

About Me

With over three decades of experience, I provide a calm, confidential space for adults and couples. I specialise in longer-term psychotherapy, allowing us to deeply explore challenges and foster lasting understanding. This approach is ideal for those ready to commit to profound personal growth and sustainable change. In our one-to-one or couple sessions, we can navigate complex feelings and build resilience together.

Approach

Over time I slow the pace to trace patterns, name unmet needs and link past experiences to present difficulties. In my East Sussex consulting room and via secure online sessions—sometimes in French—we use a measured rhythm of focused listening, gentle challenge and reflective tasks between appointments. When working with couples or individuals I attend to relationship dynamics, emotional regulation and meanings behind behaviours, keeping sessions steady rather than rushed. People who value thoughtful, committed exploration tend to find this way of working most helpful.
