Contact Zsuzsanna Purnell For Therapy In Shoreham-by-Sea

Sometimes it is not a crisis that brings you here. It is a quieter awareness that something feels heavier than it should. You may be functioning outwardly while privately experiencing anxiety, relationship strain, or a sense of emotional fatigue that does not fully resolve.

This space is designed to help you slow down and understand what is happening beneath the surface in a way that feels steady and manageable. The work focuses not only on conversation, but on meaningful emotional clarity and lasting change.

I offer self-love therapy, counselling, and life coaching in Shoreham-by-Sea, supporting individuals and couples through a structured, compassionate approach that meets you where you are.

Why Clients Choose To Work With Me

Therapy is not only about qualifications. It is about feeling safe, supported, and understood within the process. The work is designed to hold emotional complexity in a way that feels steady, grounded, and manageable.

This approach gently works at the root cause of challenges such as anxiety, depression, and addiction, rather than focusing only on managing symptoms. Sessions are designed to avoid re-traumatisation, allowing change to happen in a way that feels safe and sustainable. Because of this depth-focused approach, the work is often shorter-term than traditional talking therapies, with many clients experiencing meaningful shifts within a small number of sessions.

• Over 10 years of professional experience

• Diploma in Transactional Analysis Counselling

• Certificate in Transformational Self-Love Therapy

• Trauma-informed and integrative approach

• Root-cause focused work (not symptom management)

• Experience supporting recovery, resilience, and addiction

• Experience supporting clients reducing reliance on anxiety medication

• Structured yet compassionate, short-term support

A Clear & Thoughtful Path Into Support

Beginning therapy can feel uncertain, especially if you are unsure what kind of support you need. You do not need to have clarity before reaching out.

• Support is organised into distinct pathways:

• Therapy for deeper emotional healing and long-standing patterns

• Counselling for steady emotional support and reflection

• Life coaching for direction, clarity, and forward movement

• Courses for guided personal development

You may begin in one area and move into another as your needs evolve.

Taking the time to understand which path feels right can make the process feel more manageable and supportive from the very beginning.

Flexible Session Options To Suit Your Needs

Support is designed to meet you where you are, whether you are just beginning or ready for deeper work.

Options include:

• 60-minute counselling sessions for steady support and a gentle starting point

• 60-minute life coaching sessions for clarity and direction

• 90-minute transformational therapy sessions for deeper emotional work

For many people, beginning with a 60-minute session feels more manageable before moving into deeper work when ready.

If you are unsure, a short conversation can help clarify what feels most appropriate.

A Structured & Manageable Process

The process is designed to feel clear, supportive, and not overwhelming.

• Step 1: A 15-minute consultation to understand what is bringing you here
• Step 2: Choosing the most suitable pathway
• Step 3: Attending sessions at a pace that feels manageable
• Step 4: Ongoing support and reflection

This structure allows the work to feel contained, focused, and steady.

Continue Your Growth Beyond One-To-One Sessions

Personal development does not need to stop at individual sessions. For those who want to go deeper, or continue building on the work between sessions, there are structured options designed to support ongoing growth in a more guided and immersive way.

These offerings provide space to explore, reflect, and integrate change alongside others or through dedicated programmes.

You can explore:
• Guided therapy courses designed for deeper self-discovery
• Small group workshops offering shared learning and reflection
• Structured programmes to support long-term personal development

Each pathway offers a different level of support, depending on where you are and how you prefer to engage with the work.

I have known Zsuzsanna since 2012 and I completed my training with her. As a fellow student I can recommend Zsuzsi to clients. She has a caring, natural empathy with others and is able to quickly identify the needs of her client.

I met Zsuzsi during a very difficult period of my life. During his therapy, I was part of a very safe and accepting atmosphere. I am very grateful for what he did for me during therapy and for helping me in my spiritual healing. I can only recommend ❣️❣️❣️
Erika Balazs
A privilege in anyone’s life, personally or professionally. Her love for people and life, sense of humour, openness and inquisitive way is just incredible and a joy to be around. Her professionalism and commitment is inspiring. Zsuzsi’s tender honesty and openness is invigorating and ground breaking in the therapy world. Zsuzsi’s power is all of these qualities and a huge amount of love which I have had the good fortune to basket in and see grow over time. If anyone has the chance to work with Zsuzsi, my advice would be to grab it with both hands now as I have a feeling that Zsuzsi will be sharing her therapy world wide in the not too distant future.
Martha Mullings
“Zsuzsi is a well-prepared and fair professional. After the first consultation, I knew that I would be in good hands. She is a very kind, open personality, and love flows from her. During the consultations with her, I managed to reshape my thoughts and understand myself, what and why I do and accept this, as a result, I managed to raise my quality of life to a higher level, I became a much more confident and balanced person. He also introduced me to the usefulness of meditation, for which I am very grateful. All in all, I can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone.”

Thanks to Zsuzsi, I now have a better understanding of myself and a more positive and loving relationship with myself. I highly recommend her transformational self-love therapy to anyone who wants to improve their self-esteem, self-acceptance, and overall well-being. Zsuzsanna is a skilled and compassionate therapist who can help you achieve significant transformation in just a few sessions.
Elsie
I had effects of severe trauma (due to early-life incidents and home environment)- Depression, Low self-esteem, Unable to trust other people, and difficulty forming close relationships. At the root of my problems lay an inability to like or love myself. I guess that I wanted to rid myself of the deep-seated effects of the many difficult and traumatic experiences that I have endured in my life, especially in my teenage years. As a result of our sessions together, I have come to the conclusion that I am actually a rather nice guy. I have finally learned to like myself and feel that I am at the early stages of beginning to love and respect myself. In the process, I have learned to be more trusting of other people.
