Paul Chantry

We often try to manage things on our own, but there can come a point when it feels important to reach out for support. Perhaps you are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unable to switch off your thoughts. Maybe you are experiencing sadness, hopelessness, low self-esteem, or carrying painful memories from the past. Or perhaps you and your partner are struggling with difficulties in your relationship. Whatever you are feeling, you are not alone. I offer face-to-face counselling for individuals and couples in a safe, private and comfortable therapy room in Brighton or Hove, where you can talk openly, and begin to make sense of your difficult thoughts, feelings and experiences. I am a qualified counsellor and accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), with extensive experience of supporting people with anxiety, depression, panic attacks, low self-esteem, childhood trauma and relationship difficulties. I am integrative counsellor which means that I am able to draw upon a range of therapeutic approaches, allowing me to tailor therapy to your individual needs. My approach is warm, grounded and collaborative and my aim is to offer a supportive space where you can talk openly, without judgement or pressure. If you have never had counselling before, finding the right therapist can feel confusing or intimidating, so I am happy to offer a free 20-minute phone or video consultation where we can talk a little about what’s bringing you to counselling and whether working together feels right for you.
