Jonny Lindsay Counselling
A Therapeutic Counselling Service
Welcome to my page, sit down, relax and take your time in getting to know me, it's important you choose the right therapist for you.
Looking for a therapist can be overwhelming as there are so many counsellors working in so many ways, how can you know what's right for you? Feel free to scroll down to the next section and take a look at what I think is important and a little bit about how I work.
"The beginning is the most important part of the work"

A bit about myself.
My journey to becoming a counsellor started after a time in my life when I needed some help. It was such a motivating and positive experience I knew it was going to be my vocation to support and help others.
Our relationship is the most important thing in our work. I will try to understand your experience without judgment and be honest and open. I'll take the time to work together with you to find what works best for you.
I have been a Positive Placement Mentor for the YMCA supporting young people towards a positive future. Also a teaching assistant for level 2 counselling adult learners at Aldridge Adult Learning in Portslade. Since 2019 I have been volunteering for a charity offering affordable counselling in Southwick, West Sussex.

It's up to you it's your space and time with me.
I am interested and have experience in family dynamics, relationship issues, drug use and abuse, feeling stuck, having low mood, anger, shame and loss.
