About Me
My name is Simon Arthur-Smith. I am an experienced counsellor, now in my fifteenth year of private practice, offering therapy both remotely (via Skype and telephone) and from counselling rooms in Hove (160-162 Church Road). I am committed to providing effective (and cost-effective) counselling and psychotherapy in a safe, confidential and totally non-judgmental environment.
I am a Registered and Accredited member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy.

I counsel individuals one-to-one, either for an agreed time period, or on an open-ended basis - my aim as a counsellor is to enable you to improve your quality of life and live life more fully.

Low self-esteem

Bereavement
