Welcome to Shoreham Psychotherapy
Shoreham Psychotherapy provides a confidential and safe place to help you address the difficulties and conflicts with which you are struggling.
Our present feelings and reactions can stem from earlier difficult experiences that remain buried.
Psychotherapy can provide a safe space to begin to reconnect to feelings belonging to the past that affect us in the present – unbeknown to ourselves.
Janis McCarthy is an experienced Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist for over 18 years with the British Psychotherapy Foundation after spending 20 years in Health Care.
Janis is able to offer long and short-term Psychotherapy for the following problems:
- Bereavement
- Relationship Problems
- Feeling Life Lacks Meaning
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Post Natal Depression
Having had both professional and personal experience of bereavement I have developed a particular interest in bereavement, grief and loss.
Often unresolved grief can lead to depression and/or anxiety.
Psychotherapy can help with the feelings that are holding you back from leading a more fulfilling life.
