Compassionate Therapy in Shoreham-by-Sea
Sometimes it is not a crisis that brings you here. It is a quiet recognition that something feels heavier than it should. You may be functioning well outwardly while privately experiencing anxiety, relationship strain or a persistent sense of emotional fatigue.
At Zsuzsanna Purnell Therapy, I provide therapy in Shoreham-by-Sea for individuals and couples who want to understand these patterns rather than simply manage them. We gently explore what sits beneath these patterns, working with both mind and body so that insight can become something you truly feel, integrate and carry with you into everyday life.
If you are considering support, we can begin with a calm and confidential conversation to clarify what feels most appropriate.
Find the Right Path for Your Therapy Journey
Whether you are considering therapy for the first time or looking for a deeper understanding of yourself, there are different ways to begin. Support is available face-to-face in Shoreham-by-Sea or online, allowing you to choose an approach and setting that feels comfortable for you.
Counselling
A gentle place to begin.
Counselling offers a supportive space to talk openly about your thoughts, feelings and experiences. It can be a helpful starting point if you are new to therapy or would like time to reflect on what is happening in your life.
Through conversation and cognitive reflection, we can explore emotional challenges, develop greater self-awareness and begin to understand patterns that may be affecting your wellbeing.
Transformational Self-Love Therapy
Explore what lies beneath the surface.
Transformational Self-Love Therapy takes a deeper, holistic approach to emotional wellbeing, exploring the underlying experiences and long-standing patterns that may influence how you feel, think and relate to yourself and others.
By working with both mind and body, this approach creates space for deeper emotional exploration, self-understanding and meaningful personal change.
Tranformational Self- Love Therapy
Therapy sessions last 90 minutes, giving you the time to explore emotional responses, relationship dynamics, and deeper patterns without feeling rushed. The sessions follow a structured process designed to help you reconnect with your authentic self while developing greater clarity and emotional balance.
This integrative approach combines several therapeutic and healing practices to support meaningful and lasting change.
Therapeutic Approaches Used
The method blends a range of evidence-based and holistic techniques, including:
- Breathwork to regulate the nervous system and release emotional tension
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to reframe limiting beliefs and unhelpful thought patterns
- Hoʻoponopono to support emotional clearing and forgiveness
- Family Constellation work to explore generational and relational patterns
- Integrative self-discovery practices that encourage awareness and personal growth
These approaches support healing on both emotional and physical levels by addressing stress patterns, stored trauma, and subconscious beliefs.
Who This Therapy Can Support
This approach may be used for:
- Individual therapy
- Couples therapy
- Relationship-focused support
- Youth emotional support
- Family therapy
With only as few as 3 sessions we can achieve lasting transformations and it can be beneficial for those that are just done with classical talking therapy and ready for a more holistic approach.
Counselling
Counselling offers structured emotional containment when you need space to stabilise before exploring deeper patterns. It provides a confidential setting to speak openly and reflect with guidance.
This form of support may help with:
- Persistent worry or overthinking
- Low mood
- Parenting strain
- Relationship uncertainty
- Identity or life transitions
Counselling is practical and steady. It creates clarity while reducing emotional overwhelm.
Structured one-to-one options are outlined on the Ways I Can Support You page.
A Structured & Manageable Process
Beginning therapy can feel uncertain. The process is designed to provide clarity from the outset.
A short introductory conversation to understand your needs and help you decide on the best next steps.
Together, we decide on the best setting and structure for your needs. This ensures your support is tailored to your comfort and personal goals.
90-minute sessions provide the unhurried space needed to settle in and explore emotional patterns in depth. This structure allows for meaningful reflection and transformational work at your own pace.
Dedicated, ongoing guidance tailored to help you navigate everyday life with clarity and confidence. Consistent check-ins keep you supported as you move toward your goals.
