Addiction Counselor,
MBACP MSc Addiction Psychology
Brighton and Hove.
There are many areas I can help you with- anxiety, depression, grief and loss, low self-esteem, distressing childhood or adult events, but I specialise in helping people with drug and alcohol problems, and of course, addiction. I also work with people who have reached such a point in their lives where suicide becomes a real option, maybe they have even tried. My clients range in age from young adults who have found temporary (moving into habitual) relief from emotional pain in drink or smoking, through to adults who have reached a low point and need to change. Some want a specialist to talk to about their current use and may not know what they want their relationship with a substance to be.....that's fine too.....there's no judgement, no expectations, just a professional space for you to talk this through. What can you expect from me? A non-judgemental, safe, collaborative space to explore your drinking & using. I will have no agenda, no definition of who you are, and I will not 'tell you' you need to stop. This is about you, not me and if you're reading this, you're contemplating change- I'm in your corner. Together we'll work through what is going on for you and where you think you want to get to. As above, our therapy will be collaborative and the goals and future you see for yourself will be yours, not mine, but we'll get there together using a blend of research based theory and my own experience, held together with the therapeutic scaffolding of a person centred approach but using other methods to draw from you these complexities around change that substance misuse brings. Please email and book in. My service can be traditional 'in-room therapy', or online.
