About Care & Connect
About Me:
Welcome, I’m Isla
I’m a fully qualified and insured psychotherapeutic counsellor based in Shoreham-by-Sea, and the founder of Care and Connect Counselling.
I offer a safe, confidential, and compassionate space for anyone navigating life’s challenges. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, going through a crisis, or living with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or relationship difficulties, I’m here to support you with empathy and care.
Inclusivity is at the heart of my practice. I’m committed to creating a respectful, affirming environment for people of all gender identities, expressions, and sexual orientations. I also warmly welcome neurodivergent individuals—including those with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and other neurodevelopmental differences. Whoever you are, and whatever you’re carrying, you are welcome here—just as you are.
My approach is particularly attuned to those who may feel like the "black sheep," or who are exploring identity, purpose, or navigating difficult life transitions. With a background in the corporate world, I also bring insight that may be especially relevant if you're balancing personal growth with professional pressures.
I work integratively, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches to meet your unique needs, always grounded in a humanistic foundation. I see you as a whole person—not a problem to fix—and I believe deeply in your capacity to heal, grow, and reconnect with your authentic self.
Together, we’ll explore your experiences at your own pace, making space for insight, clarity, and meaningful change—towards a more grounded and fulfilling life.
Where and How much.
Confidentiality is my priority, providing a secure environment for you to share your thoughts and experiences without judgement.
Choose between in-person sessions from my tranquil garden office based in Shoreham by Sea, private therapy rooms in Hove or online/telephone counselling to suit your comfort.
I offer both short term therapy (i.e. 6, 12, 24 weeks) and long term open ended sessions and can tailor our sessions depending on what feels right for you
Sessions are 50 minutes and cost £50. Some concessionary spots are available at a lower rate.
My availability is flexible, so the best thing to do is contact me.
