Kate Nicholls

I am a Psychodynamic Counsellor based in Worthing, West Sussex.

Perhaps you find yourself here because your anxiety or depression is affecting your everyday life; you're tired of the daily struggles you face and you want something to change. Maybe you recognise that you are driven to repeat patterns of behaviour that cause you distress and pain in relationships. Perhaps you've had a sense for a while that something isn't quite right, a voice inside stopping you from living a happy and fulfilling life; you’re curious to see if therapy could help.

Our current thoughts and feelings - how we experience ourselves and others today - are always affected by what went before, often stemming from childhood. Our reactions to friends and family, along with our internal emotions and thought processes, are strongly based on how family members responded to us back then.

Working psychodynamically together, your therapeutic journey will bring unconscious feelings into consciousness, as we work through previously unknown thoughts and feelings, trauma, rejections and losses.
