Suitable to explore anything that you need some extra support with, such as: anxiety, low mood, personal development, trauma, loss, identity, spirituality, sexuality, family, career, work, study and relationship issues. My private practice is accredited by the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society.
More reasons that I've heard in regards to choosing outdoor therapy are based on feeling safer and more at ease in nature, or feeling refreshed after feeling cooped up indoors, or being more comfortable and relaxed in natural places, outside of sterile settings. Outdoor counselling offers a neutral space to meet together in the more-than-human world.
Sitting together outdoors, or wandering along in 'walk & talk' sessions, you'll be compassionately supported to reflect on your concerns and issues to explore answers and solutions. You will also be invited to opportunities to see your life in the context of life as a whole, possibly even experiencing yourself as a part of nature. Counselling in nature involves all the senses, including sight, smell, sound, touch and even taste, as well as the deeper soul senses, such as your sense of belonging, sense of place, and sense of vitality.
Sessions are offered on a sliding fee scale for inclusivity.
Accessible via a short journey by public transport (15-30 minutes) from Brighton city centre.
