Humanistic Counselling in Brighton
DipHE, MBACP
Hello. I am John Creigan, a qualified counsellor based in Brighton and Hove, and a registered member of the BACP. I offer one-to-one counselling from my private practice, as well as online sessions for clients across the UK.
I support people facing a range of challenges including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties. My approach is humanistic and integrative, creating a safe and compassionate space where you can explore whatever is on your mind, at your own pace.
MY APPROACH
I believe the relationship between client and counsellor is key to meaningful, lasting change. As an experienced male therapist and BACP-registered counsellor in Brighton and Hove, I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space for personal reflection and growth.
My approach is integrative and grounded in humanistic counselling principles. I tailor each session to suit your unique needs, working with care, honesty and respect for your individual experience.
I support adults dealing with anxiety, depression, stress and relationship difficulties. We move at your pace, gently exploring your thoughts, feelings and challenges, wherever you are in your journey.
