Caroline Berryman

Are you tired of feeling anxious, depressed, stuck, confused, sad, traumatised, helpless, worthless, guilty, ashamed, overwhelmed, or having low self-esteem? Are you suffering from a bereavement, or going through family issues and feel lost and that you can't move forward? Sometimes, something just isn't right. I am here to help. 

By working together I can help you to explore, make sense of and address what needs to change for you. I am a warm, empathetic, sensitive and non-judgmental practitioner. I offer a welcoming, safe and reflective space where you can feel at ease to explore all aspects of your life. A place where you can be heard and understood without judgement. An opportunity to pause, take a breath and try to make sense of how it is you got here. A chance to explore possibilities for the future, grow your inner resources and make sustainable and tangible positive change.

I am a registered and qualified counsellor who works with young people (age 18+) and adult clients and specialise in anxiety, depression, trauma and grief counselling. I offer short and long term psychotherapeutic counselling with Transactional Analysis (TA) as my main style of working. Having worked initially in a hospice setting, I now work in private practice. I am interested in people, our uniqueness and differences. I am passionate about my work and through regular CPD I keep up to date and add new ways of working with my clients to get the best outcomes.

I have a cabin style therapy room in my garden in Hove and I offer week day time and some evening sessions, and both online and face to face.

If you are keen to get started and would like to know more about how I work, get in touch for your free 20-minute telephone consultation. We will have a chat during which it’s a chance for you to tell me a bit of your story and I can answer any questions you may have. You can then decide if my approach is right for you; if so we can then organise an initial Intake Session. To get in touch you can send me an email or text outlining briefly why you are wanting therapy now.

I offer a free 20 minute phone assessment.

The first session is an Initial Intake Session where we will go through our Working Agreement and Intake Form. This is also very much an opportunity for us to meet (either face to face or online) and for you to get a sense of me and how I work before making a decision to go forward.
