Counselling for Drinking Problems in Newhaven

In a private room at Intergen House on Western Road in central Hove. From Newhaven it is around twenty-five minutes west along the coast through Peacehaven and Brighton to Hove, or a train via Lewes. Every service is also available by secure video across the UK, so you can meet from any private space in Newhaven or blend the two.

Not automatically, though it is worth understanding properly. The hour on the clock matters less than the role the drink is playing and how difficult it would be to skip. Shift patterns distort the usual signals, which is exactly why an outside view helps.

Not necessarily. Complaints are a poor measure, and work is usually the last thing to be affected. What tells you more is your sleep, your temper, your health and how easily you could go a fortnight without. Those are the things sessions look at.

That is a medical question and needs a doctor's input, since reducing or stopping heavy daily drinking can carry real risk. Your GP, or STAR through East Sussex County Council's drug and alcohol support, will cover it. Counselling deals with everything alongside that.

Nothing is forbidden. Losing your entire social life at once is one of the commonest reasons a change collapses. We would look at which of those occasions you actually value, and at what makes them workable rather than a test of willpower.

Sessions cost £80 / 60 min, £100 / 90 min and £120 / 120 min after a free 15-minute consultation. They are booked individually, so stopping needs no notice and no explanation. Many people come weekly at first and then spread them further apart.

Yes. When drinking becomes the main way of coping, it tends to add to the load over time. We look honestly at what it does for you and at steadier ways through, at your pace and without judgement.

Book a free fifteen-minute consultation on 07914 681995 or via the contact page. From Newhaven the Hove room is around twenty-five minutes along the coast road, or a train via Lewes from Newhaven Town to Brighton and on to Hove.

Fees are £80 for an hour, £100 for ninety minutes and £120 for two hours, after a free call. In East Sussex you can self-refer to Change Grow Live for free alcohol support, and to Health in Mind, the NHS Talking Therapies service, for underlying low mood.

Both. The Hove room offers a calm, private hour a step away from work and harbour pressures, with evening slots available. Because the journey is a fair one, many prefer secure video, which is just as effective, and you can blend the two as recovery settles.
