About me
Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed, stuck in the same patterns, or carrying emotions that never seem to fully go away?
Perhaps you spend so much time looking after everyone else that you've lost touch with yourself. Maybe you find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, struggling to switch off, or reacting in ways you don't fully understand. You might know that past experiences still affect you today, or perhaps you simply know that something doesn't feel quite right.
My name is Jess, and I am a person-centred counsellor. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can begin to make sense of your experiences, understand yourself more deeply, and explore the parts of your story that may have never had the chance to be heard.
I believe that many of the difficulties we experience in the present have roots in experiences we have had to carry for a long time. Together, we can gently explore your world at your own pace, with no pressure to talk about anything before you are ready. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to walk alongside you as you discover what feels right for you.
Clients often come to therapy feeling disconnected from themselves, weighed down by anxiety, self-doubt, difficult relationships, or experiences they have never fully processed. Through understanding, acceptance, and exploration, therapy can help you reconnect with yourself and make sense of what has brought you to this point.
I offer face-to-face counselling in Hove and Horsham, as well as online sessions. Sessions are 50 minutes long.
I am a fully qualified and insured person-centred counsellor with a Level 4 Diploma and am a registered member of the BACP, working within their ethical framework.
I offer a free initial phone call where we can talk about what is bringing you to therapy, what you hope to gain from counselling, and whether we feel like a good fit to work together.
Reaching out can feel like a big step, especially if you are used to managing things on your own. You do not need to have everything figured out before making contact. If something here resonates with you, I would be very welcome to hear from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a fully qualified counsellor with a level 4 diploma, with my modality being in person-centred therapy. I gained this qualification at the Haulm training centre. I gained level 2 and 3 at Varndean college Brighton.
I have experience in working with mothers, as I support them in therapy groups, with a focus on working with mothers with SEN children, which has been a wonderful and fulfilling role, where I have had the chance to meet some amazing people who have come together and found value in sharing their experiences whilst processing along the way.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
