​​​​Person-Centred Counselling In Bexhill-On-Sea.

Couples therapy is a form of talk therapy designed to offer a nurturing environment for partners to address and resolve relationship challenges. It serves as a platform for couples to strengthen their bond, implement strategies to safeguard their relationship or establish effective communication following a relationship breakdown, particularly in situations involving children or financial complexities. This therapeutic approach can be beneficial at any point in a relationship.

Couples seek the assistance of a therapist for a variety of reasons, including the need to address conflicts and challenges that may emerge within their relationship. Common motivations include managing health concerns, clarifying roles, aligning beliefs and values, navigating financial matters, optimising quality time together, addressing issues related to children, and enhancing sexual intimacy. Additionally, couples may pursue therapy to cope with external stressors, foster a deeper understanding of one another, pinpoint relationship difficulties, enhance their communication abilities, resolve conflicts, modify unhealthy behaviours, acquire new skills, and ultimately strengthen their communication as a couple.

My function as a counsellor is not to pass judgment on your experiences; rather, it is to offer an objective perspective, comprehend the unique situations each individual faces, and provide support during this challenging period. In my capacity as a counsellor, my aim is not to ensure that you remain together or to sway you toward a particular decision; instead, I am here to assist you in discovering the path that is most suitable for you, which may, at times, involve separation. I will make it a priority to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to express themselves without interruption, and I will remain neutral throughout the process. If you ever feel that I am favouring one side, I encourage you to communicate that to me. The approach I take may blend talk therapy with various activities, tailored to the couple's specific needs and circumstances, as I adhere to a Person-Centred therapeutic model, allowing you to guide the process.

I have collaborated with more than 36 couples and have completed the necessary training to serve as a couples counsellor.

Couples Counselling Testomonials:

2025:

"We met with Lucy after my husband had upset our marriage. We started weekly sessions where I felt safe enough to cry, talk and express how I felt. Lucy understood where I was coming from and how to express it back to my husband. She would never take sides and both parties were equal in the conversation, teaching us as a couple how to communicate. We got less and less appointments and followed Lucy's advice and now I am back home with my husband working on our communication. Highly recommend, kind caring person and easy to talk to."

"Lucy is a gentle, softly spoken lady who encourages conversation between couples. She allows you time to talk and contemplate without feeling any pressure. She sees and feels things which is quite extraordinary. The lodge that Lucy uses is a very private and calming environment."
