Afrodite Erdelyi

I currently have places available on Fridays.

Hello, my name is Afrodite. A warm welcome to my page.

I am a fully qualified integrative counsellor with a Bachelor’s degree, and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

Reaching out for support is a brave and meaningful step. Whether you are facing a difficult time or exploring ways to navigate everyday challenges, therapy offers a place to be met - gently, without judgment and at your pace.

In my practice, I offer a space that is warm, confidential, reflective and tailored to you, with empathy for the feelings and experiences you bring.

Life can feel incredibly challenging at times, leaving us overwhelmed, stuck or unsure of where to turn. If you are navigating difficult emotions or moments that feel too heavy to hold alone, I am here to support you on a journey of self-discovery and healing.

I run SunFilled Pathways Counselling Service in Havant - a private practice rooted in authenticity and a commitment to emotional depth and empowerment.

Alongside my private practice, I contribute to a Portsmouth charity, offering support to individuals finding their way through healing, reflection and personal growth.

I offer in-person, online or phone sessions to individuals age 18 and over. Each session is 50 minutes in length.

There is no fixed limit to how many sessions we can have together, your journey will unfold at a pace that feels right for you. I typically see clients once a week, and we will regularly review our progress to ensure your therapeutic needs continue to be met with care and intention.

My therapeutic approach grounded in humanistic values, drawing on theories such as CBT, brief therapy (solution and compassion focused), existential exploration and creative practice.

I support clients through a range of issues, including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and bereavement, relational and identity-based challenges. My counselling practice is compassionate and deeply respectful, where your experiences are met with sensitivity, openness and care.

Our sessions may travel across time, through past, present and future, uncovering how life’s chapters shaped the way you feel, think and relate today.

Whether we connect through conversation or creative tools like emotion cards, we will move at your pace, in ways that feel safe and meaningful for you.

This is your space to be seen, heard and gently understood.

Our first session will include an Initial Assessment, which helps us build a clear picture of your current situation, challenges and goals. 

During this session, we will talk about the areas you would like to focus on and I will also explain how I work, answer any questions you may have.

Every person's journey is different, and the assessment ensures that our work together is supportive, relevant and aligned with your goals.
