Online Trauma Counselling in Chichester

No. Time by itself does not process a memory, it only puts distance between you and it, which is why something from decades back can still land as though it were recent. The age of the event matters far less to this work than most people assume.

None in advance. An hour is £80 / 60 min, with £100 / 90 min and £120 / 120 min for longer appointments, paid as you go. This work is often briefer than expected, and the free 15-minute call is where to ask what is likely in your case.

Yes. NHS West Sussex Talking Therapies takes self-referrals and can advise on trauma-focused NHS treatment, though waiting times vary. If tonight is difficult, your GP is the quicker route and Samaritans are there around the clock. Private work alongside an NHS referral is perfectly fine.

With the present rather than the past. We would start from how it affects you now: what your sleep does, what you avoid, what helps you settle again. No account of the original event is required, and long silence about something is common rather than unusual.

Yes. Sessions are held privately online from home, with no local room to be seen entering and nothing that need involve anyone in the city. Everything stays confidential, and we approach difficult memories gently, building safety before going any further.

Often within a week of a free consultation. Bradley works online with Chichester clients, so there is no clinic to reach across the city. Trauma work from your own private space, in Summersdale or Whyke, can feel steadier when memories are difficult.

Trauma work is £80 for sixty minutes, £100 for ninety and £120 for two hours, with longer sessions often suiting it. NHS West Sussex Talking Therapies is free but frequently oversubscribed, so many in Chichester begin privately to be seen sooner.

Many Chichester clients find online trauma work just as containing, with familiar surroundings to steady them afterwards. Bradley offers some evening slots, and the Hove room is a coastal train ride away if meeting in person would help you feel safer.
