My name is Aaron.


I am a practising Buddhist and Adult & Child Counsellor & Arts Psychotherapist & Somatic Experiencer (SEP)in Hove & Brighton.
I have been seeing children, young people, adults and couples in Brighton, Hove for the past 17 years.

I am committed to providing Counselling and Psychotherapy and Trauma work, in Brighton & Hove in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.

I offer Counselling, Psychotherapy & Somatic Experiencing ( SEP), and Comprehensive Resource Model ( CRM).

Most recently I have just started to offer Heart Healing™️

I provide a safe and confidential space, be able to talk and work through your thoughts and feelings in a safe and confidential setting.

I provide face-to-face, individual Counselling, Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing and Heart Healing™️, to anyone experiencing a range of emotional issues, with the aim of enabling you to live your life fully and happily.

We can meet face to face or online (Zoom or Skype)

Sometimes Counselling and Psychotherapy is all someone will need to get to a better, more balanced place.

But sometimes it is not enough.

I am finding more and more people are finding ‘Talk Therapy’ not enough.

So many of our behaviours and responses are rooted in our bodies responses. Often ‘talking’ is not enough to get to the root cause of our issues. Hence why I offer ​​Somatic Experiencing® and Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM). Both of these modalities, are powerful body based therapy's, that are capable of relieving physical, emotional and psychological shock, stress and trauma. They help mobilise the body's innate self-healing systems - the same physiological processes that mend broken bones and fight disease.

Each one of us is an individual and therefore it is necessary to find the right approach that will suit you.

I therefore, if necessary, combine Counselling, Arts Psychotherapy and/or Somatic Experiencing and/or Comprehensive Resource Model, Heart Healing™️, into a holistic approach that is individual and will suit your needs.

I know choosing a Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Somatic Experiencer ( SEP), is not easy.

You need to find someone you can trust. The first session is an opportunity for you to see if I'm right for you.

‘I always felt I was living under a cloud of sadness and depression. I couldn’t seem seem to get anything accomplished. Always beginning things, but never finishing. Slowly the depression began to lift and I’m now I’ve got my life back. I’m feeling enormous amount of energy. Something released in me!!!!’

47 years old Female

‘Working with Aaron changed my life! I’d been struggling with depression and mood swings since I was a teenager. Doing Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) allowed me to visit past trauma that I wasn’t even aware of. Aaron’s skill as a therapist allowed me to heal these past traumas. I’m ever so grateful. Thanks Aaron’

55 year old Male


‘Thanks Aaron for everything you have done. For years I’ve felt so withdrawn and frightened of large social groups. It’s been excruciating! Slowly over the time of therapy I began to feel more relaxed and able to socialise. Doing parts work was particularly helpful. I’m now kinder and more loving to myself . I can’t believe it, I’m actually looking forward to the future!Thanks again’

37 year Female.


‘I wanted to say thanks again so much for all your help over these last few months. I have really enjoyed the sessions we've had, even when (as often) they've been challenging, emotional or painful! You created an environment that enabled me to feel relaxed and safely vulnerable, and i found you to be be kind, understanding and completely non-judgemental. In short you were exactly the kind of therapist I'd hoped I would meet but wasn't sure existed, having never had therapy before! ‘

48 year old Female
