Mr Jonathan Graves

Psychotherapist

I am an experienced Psychotherapist (UKCP & BACP registered ) who offers accepting, confidential and inclusive counselling for individuals and older adolescents.

About Me

Navigating life's challenges can feel overwhelming. I offer a confidential, inclusive space for individuals and older adolescents. As an experienced psychotherapist, we will work together to deeply explore your unique experiences. My goal is for you to feel truly heard and understood, finding clarity and a way forward. This collaborative approach is ideal for those seeking a tailored path to personal growth.

Approach

Therapy with me moves at a steady, attentive pace, shaped around your rhythm and the themes you bring. I see clients face-to-face from a quiet practice in East Sussex, working in English to keep sessions grounded and immediate. We gently track patterns in relationships, transitions, stress and self-worth, using reflective listening, practical experiments between sessions when helpful, and collaborative challenge to open new choices. This way of working suits people seeking clarity and more resilient ways of relating to themselves and others.
