Counselling in Lewes and Online.
BACP registered, integrative counselling for adults.
Sometimes life can feel overwhelming. You may be struggling with anxiety, stress, burnout, grief or a major life change and find yourself unsure of what to do next.
I am Julia, a qualified professional integrative counsellor, registered with the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy). I offer individual counselling for adults in Lewes as well as online.
I offer a confidential, empathic and non judgemental space where you can talk openly about whatever is happening in your life. Together we can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at a pace that feels right for you to encourage and enable connection and to help you find your own way forward.
Counselling for anxiety, stress, burnout and overwhelm
You may be feeling anxious, exhausted, overwhelmed and unable to switch off. Perhaps work is stressful and you are finding it difficult to cope with everything life is asking of you.
My previous career in business means that I have first-hand experience of the pressures, expectations and uncertainty that can come with working life. I empathise with how difficult it can be when work begins to affect your confidence, relationships, well-being or sense of self.
I offer counselling for:
Anxiety & overwhelm
Stress
Low mood
Workplace stress & burnout
Midlife transitions
Grief & loss
Confidence & self esteem
Menopause & life changes
‘Empty nest’ & feelings of loss of identity
Career changes & uncertainty
A counsellor who understands life’s transitions
My own career change from running a business to qualifying as a counsellor has given me a particular understanding of transition and change.
Life doesn’t always turn out as we expect. Changes in relationships, work, family, health, identity and our sense of purpose can leave us questioning where we fit and what comes next.
Counselling can give you the time and space to explore these experiences with support and compassion rather than navigating them alone.
My approach
I work integratively, which means that I draw from a number of therapeutic approaches according to your individual needs. There is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to therapy - we are all shaped by our unique experiences, relationships, beliefs and personal histories.
There is no expectation that you will arrive knowing exactly what you want to talk about - we can explore this together.
My therapeutic work is grounded in compassion, authenticity and respect. I believe that every person deserves to be listened to without judgement and supported with care and empathy.
I work collaboratively with you - offering a safe and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences openly.
Sessions are led by how you are feeling and how you want to feel. Together we will explore what is troubling you, understand patterns that may be keeping you stuck, identify strategies for coping and move towards greater understanding and self awareness for a more fulfilling and balanced life.
Counselling in Lewes and online
I offer counselling from my rooms in Lewes with online sessions also available.
If you are looking for a counsellor in Lewes or would prefer to work online you are very welcome to make contact with me.
You don’t need to know whether counselling is ‘right’ for you before making contact. We can simply have an initial conversation about what you are feeling and what you hope to get from counselling.
You don’t have to work everything out on your own
If you are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, sad, exhausted or simply not quite yourself, counselling can give you a space to reflect and begin to explore how you might be feeling and offer a place to start working on feeling better.
