As Vice Chair (and former Chair) of Sussex Counselling Jamie has extensive experience in the varied world of counselling giving him a unique perspective. As an integrative humanistic counsellor and psychotherapist he built a great deal of his expertise working in the NHS with an extremely broad selection of presenting circumstances and has had remarkable impact in the lives of his clients with several thousand client hours experience.
Factors that contribute to Jamie’s success are, as a member of the BACP, Jamie is committed to lifelong development and has now worked for several years in private practice, both face to face and over the phone, specialising in areas of Relationships, Stress, Anxiety, Anger and areas where our emotions influence our thought processes. Also as a ‘client led’ therapist, Jamie works openly and transparently with you to ensure that you are in control of the process and understand everything throughout.
Also there is no charge for an initial consultation with Jamie as he prefers you to experience working with him without other pressures before you make any decisions about whether to proceed further.
We strive to be 'normal' and in the process hopefully realise that there is no such thing as normal, just how we are and that's ok.
As a counsellor and psychotherapist I work primarily around relationships, but also with anxiety, grief, stress and anger, and a majority of life’s challenges. I am based in Brighton and also work over the phone. I am an integrative humanistic counsellor which means a focus towards emotions and how these interact with our thoughts, utilising Roger’s Person Centred Therapy, Gestalt and TA, though I will utilise other methodologies as appropriate. I am fully qualified and indemnified and my professional body is the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists) whose ethical standards I work to.
I do not charge for an initial consultation as this gives you a chance meet me and see if you are comfortable working with me. Then I generally suggest that you spend some time considering whether we would work well together and contact me once you have decided.
