Welcome to our find a Therapist page
 


Here you will be able to view the profiles of Hove Counselling and Psychotherapy's registered members. We appreciate it can be a bit daunting starting the process of finding the right therapist for you. That's why we have listed lots of helpful information about our practitioners, to support your search.


All of our Therapists and Counsellors are qualified and insured, which have been verified at the time of their registration.


Each therapist has a contact link on their profile, so that you can make direct contact with them.


Please make contact with the therapists directly through their contact link and not via Hove Counselling and Psychotherapy's contact form and phone number. All of our practitioners work independently and are solely responsible for their own practice and appointments.

Psychodynamic Counsellor MBACP (Accred)

Life can be challenging for all of us at different times in our lives and sometimes we need some help to navigate these experiences to enable us make sense of them and to move forward in a more positive and fulfilling way in life.

​

As a BACP accredited therapist, I offer both Psychodynamic therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing).

​

Psychodynamic therapy involves exploration of thoughts, feelings, and past experiences to gain insight into current behaviours and relationships. I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space for exploring past experiences, understanding present challenges, and effecting positive changes in your life.

​

EMDR is a more structured therapy aimed at addressing and resolving emotional distress stemming from past experiences, allowing for healing within a safe and supportive therapeutic environment.

Lucy Turvil

Psychodynamic counsellor

PGDip MBACP (Accred)

Lucy Turvil

Taking the first step to talk to someone can be difficult. You may know how you feel but
sometimes feelings can be difficult to identify.


As a psychodynamic counsellor, I think a better appreciation of your early life experiences,
can lead to a new perspective on your feelings now. I can help you make sense of these
experiences by understanding their meaning for you and explore ways in which you can help
yourself and develop personally.

 
I work in comfortable rooms on Portland Road. The rooms are easy to reach by bus or car
and there is on-street pay and display parking in the surrounding area.
 
I work with people on both a short and long-term basis. I'm BACP registered.


I mainly work face to face (supported with online sessions).

​

My expertise comes from over 10 years of supporting clients who struggle with anxiety, intrusive, negative thoughts, and helping people to manage physical sensations

 

My experience of supporting individuals in mental health and counselling settings is that talking therapy, being heard, affirmed and validated, along with equipping yourself with practical tools can help you to feel more in control and less consumed by anxiety.

Hello, I'm Zoe and I'm a qualified person-centred therapist specialising in child and adolescent mental health and well-being.

​

I have extensive experience working with children and young people – using creative techniques allows me to gain insight into the child's world and identify areas they need support with when verbal communication is difficult.

​

I believe good therapy can bring about a fuller understanding of self, no matter how old we are and ultimately towards transformation, should this be the wish - moving away from what was and towards what we would like it to be.

Maybe you're feeling stuck, or unfulfilled, scared with all that's going on in the world, or feel low or hopeless. Perhaps you feel alone or struggle with worries.

​

Maybe you can't speak about what's happened to you, or how you feel about yourself, for fear it is too much or too heavy or too unacceptable for someone to hear. Or you feel people won't accept you if you share how things really are?
