Emma Poxon
Counsellor/Therapist, MA Person-Centred Experiential Counselling
I am a late diagnosed therapist who has an ADHD diagnosis so I know first hand the challenges that self-diagnosed and medically diagnosed neurodivergent people face. I have found that neurodivergent clients naturally gravitate towards me, and now I have my diagnosis it all makes sense! It’s so lovely being able to have that immediate understanding of things that neurotypical people just don’t experience, saving the need to over explain and welcoming in supposed “weirdness”. You are not a problem to be fixed, my aim as your therapist is to try to provide the right conditions to allow you to explore whatever you want to bring to therapy to support your growth. This isn't a therapeutic approach wherein I will set a treatment plan or tell you what to do. We will work together as a partnership rather than me taking away your autonomy. I absolutely love the work I do, it is the biggest privilege being let into people’s personal worlds and seeing the immense growth of my clients. I hope to hear from you soon!

Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
Many of the difficulties associated with autism can be overcome with appropriate therapeutic interventions, which will include kinesiology. It is helpful for persons with autism to understand the ways that they are different from people who do not have autism, to help them to interact more appropriately and successfully. People with autism often carry considerable fear, which can be alleviated or, in many aspects, completely resolved.

Brighton has one of the largest and most visible LGBTQ+ communities in the United Kingdom, and its therapy community reflects this — with high demand for affirming therapists who specialize in queer identity, non-traditional relationship structures, gender diversity, and the intersection of LGBTQ+ experience with mental health. The city's two universities — the University of Brighton and the University of Sussex — generate significant student mental health demand and a progressive, intellectually engaged population that generally views therapy favorably. Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a strong private therapy community concentrated in the Lanes, Kemptown, and Hove. Brighton's coastal character and arts-oriented culture support a creative community with its own distinct mental health needs around identity, purpose, and economic precarity.
