Selina Wigmore

I offer face to face sessions in Worthing as well as online (Zoom) and telephone sessions. 

Please contact me to enquire about my availability.

The aim of my work is to enable people to live rather than just existing. In my sessions the focus is on you, your feelings, experiences, reasonings, goals, your needs and wants. I am warm and nurturing and offer a safe space where you can be heard. 

I work from a psychodynamic approach, meaning that I link past to present to notice how and where patterns repeat- when patterns can be recognised and their beginnings processed and understood, we can be empowered to challenge them.

This work tends to be long term and is by no means easy, but it is a process that can impact all areas of your life as it helps develop a sense of identity and builds self esteem. It is a process of recognising and valuing yourself enabling you to actively participate in the world around you.

I am a warm a nurturing counsellor, and my aim is to enable you to engage in and enjoy your life. To do this, we explore the past and how you have been affected by it- how you view yourself. Through processing the past and getting in touch with your feelings, your sense of self can become stronger, and gradually life becomes about fulfilling yourself as well as others. 

I do not teach- but I like to think that I open doors, offer up different perspectives to enable a client to get a more robust, 3D image of themselves, their world, and how they can interact in and impact upon the outside world. 

I offer face to face sessions in Worthing, or online via Zoom- I have found both to be effective. I like to approach this work as open ended, because I believe that having a time restraint puts unnecessary pressure on the work. Weekly sessions is ideal, particularly early on, but I offer fortnightly sessions as well. For me, this work is about providing a safe space for a client that suits their needs, and these change throughout the work. The first step is reaching out, I can be alongside you after that.

Initial assessments last no more than 30 minutes, are not charged and will be carried out either over the telephone or via Zoom- please let me know of your preference. 

This is a general chat to find out what you are looking for from your counselling and for us to 'get a feel' for each other.

You are not committed to return to counselling with me after the initial session.
