Laure Jackson

I have availability on a Monday daytime and early evening

I offer face to face or online therapy, depending on client preference

Hello I am Laure Jackson. I am an experienced and qualified counsellor, a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP); and I work in accordance with their Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.

I offer a safe, non- judgemental, supportive space to enable us to explore whatever brings you to counselling. My counselling approach comes from being person -centred, which means I value you as an individual. You can expect to be listened to and received non- judgementally, authentically and with empathy so that together we build a trusting, warm and confidential therapeutic relationship.

I work with a humanistic approach which encompasses a range of models with the underpinning belief in the potential of each human being to instinctively grow and change. Each of us is unique and creative; has inherent worth and deserves respect. Sometimes life throws things at us which mean we get stuck and cannot function in the way we would like to.

Perhaps life is complicated or distressing for you right now? I strongly believe in the client being the expert on themselves, however journeying alongside another in therapy can help begin or continue the process to greater self-awareness, acceptance and change.

Maybe you have experienced bereavement, loss or change, suddenly or over time, and you are not able to speak to or be heard by those around you. I am here to journey with you to help you make sense of how you are feeling.

I have over 30 years’ experience working as a teacher supporting young people both within Secondary education and University settings. I am also Mum to two teenage daughters.

I am passionate about supporting my clients in being able to recognise their potential, lead happier lives and function more fully in their relationships. Research suggests, and it is my experience, that when we are our most authentic selves that change is most likely to occur.

I have particular experience of working with pregnancy loss, fertility issues and bereavement. I have a passion in supporting the teaching profession and would welcome the opportunity to support colleagues at any stage of their career.

My practice is from my counselling room at my home in Worthing, West Sussex. There is free parking and good bus and rail links with a bus stop outside my home and the nearest station a 10 minute walk away.

I offer a free 30minute session to see if we both feel we can work together
