I work primarily online and have good availability  on Thursdays.

I’m Jess, an integrative therapist based in Hove with a Masters in Integrative counselling and Psychotherapy. I draw from my experience working therapeutically with adults one to one and voluntary work facilitating groups for young adults.

Sometimes it can be difficult to know exactly why we feel the way we do and make sense of what’s happening for us. I create a safe space to get to know your experience and support you in dealing with the challenges you face. I offer warmth, compassion and gentle challenge, working with you to facilitate change.

Areas I work with include: anxiety, depression, grief, identity issues, problems relating to childhood, relationships, women issues, self-esteem, self-harm, OCD, trauma, work related stress

As an integrative relational therapist my practice is rooted in person-centred ways of being and values the evidence-based use of relationship with clients to promote change, integrating this with other models of therapy. I draw predominantly on psychodynamic frameworks and consider the role of the past in the present, with focus on how this relates to relationships and what’s happening for you now. I also look at what’s happening between us that might be useful to work with together. 

I believe some tools from CBT can help to work through particular challenges and support those who may benefit from it. It is important to check in as we go about what is happening in the work and what you are finding most valuable in therapy. I will support you to develop greater self-awareness.

I offer a free 30 minute call to before we agree to work together to discuss what's brought you to therapy, outline requirements and establish our suitability for working together.
