Calling all psychotherapists, counsellors and wellbeing professionals looking for a fresh approach to marketing!

Join Hema Patel () at New Road Psychotherapy for 'Kickstart Your Visibility & Attract New Clients', a practical and creative workshop designed to help you grow your audience and reach the right people.

With Hema's support you will map out your clients' needs and challenges, take some new photos to reflect your professional identity, and create 5 ready-to-use social media posts to showcase your work.

Recognising that holistic practitioners require a holistic approach to communication, this is not your average marketing workshop. Instead of pushy messaging or cookie-cutter trends, Hema will help you connect with your clients in an authentic and heart-led way, and you will come away from the session feeling uplifted, inspired and aligned.

CPD Sussex warmly invites you to An Evening with Keith Tudor...

Taking place on 22nd May, this event offers a relaxed opportunity to spend a couple of hours in likeminded community with someone who has spent over 40 years thinking deeply about psychotherapy, mental health, and the relationship between humans and the wider world.

As a psychotherapist, author, supervisor and academic, Keith Tudor's work has touched so many corners of our field - from humanistic psychology and transactional analysis, to the politics of care. Last year Keith was honoured with the Carl Rogers Award by the APA's Society for Humanistic Psychology, and earlier this year he received the Eric Berne Memorial Award for the second time; a recognition of a lifetime of genuine contribution.

This is an opportunity for deep listening, presence and sharing. After a short introduction, the floor will open up, creating space for audience questions and hopefully the kind of conversation that will stay with you long after the evening ends.

Come curious, leave inspired! Book your place here:

What if the path through suffering began with sitting still, and listening deeply?

Dharma, Dialogue & Meditation is a small, intimate practice group where early Buddhist teaching, meditation, and psychotherapeutic insight meet - not as rigid doctrine or belief, but as living, breathing tools for understanding ourselves and each other.

Over six weeks, this experience will weave together guided meditation, Dharma reflections drawn from the Pali Canon, and honest facilitated dialogue, creating a space in which contemplation becomes lived experience, and genuine community can form.

Each weekly session will explore a different theme:

Why We Suffer
The Dividing Mind
Desire and Drive
Difficulty without Hardening
Kindness without Collapse
Letting Go and Living Forward

The group is led by Rory Singer, an experienced psychotherapist trained in Gestalt and Psychoanalytic traditions, who spent five years living as an ordained Buddhist monk in the Thai Forest Tradition.

📅 Tuesdays, 5:30–7pm | 14th April – 19th May
📍 New Road Psychotherapy, Hove
💛 Cost for the full series: £90

Group size limited to 8 participants - book your place via the link below:

5 Wellbeing Tips for Spring from New Road Psychotherapy...

🌸 MAKE SPACE
The days are lengthening and buds are opening into blossom, symbolising expansion and hopeful possibility. To support our own growth, it can be helpful to create space for change or new perspectives to emerge.This might look like spring cleaning, emotional release, digital decluttering, or ticking off lingering jobs. What could making space mean for you this season?

🌿 MOVE YOUR BODY
Spring is a season of rising energy, when the natural world becomes more active after the stillness of winter. We all have different bodies and physical capacities, but if possible it can be uplifting at this time of year to bring a little more movement into your day. Whether you take a morning walk, stretch before bed, or dance in the kitchen while cooking - it all counts! What kind of movement would feel good to you?

☀️ SOAK UP THE LIGHT
It can be hard to notice at first, but from March onwards the light (and warmth!) slowly begins to return. Exposure to sunlight, especially first thing in the morning, is not only a mood booster, but also helps regulate the circadian rhythm and improve sleep. Even just 10-15 minutes spent in natural daylight, when you wake up or on your lunch break, can bring benefits. How could you get more light during the day?

💫 EMBRACE CREATIVITY
As the season of new life, spring reminds us of the power of creativity to lift our spirits and reconnect us with ourselves. ‘Being creative’ can sound intimidating (especially if you’ve ever been made to feel you’re ‘not good’ at art!) but it’s something everyone can enjoy. As well as the typical artistic activities, creativity includes things like cooking, music, writing, or coming up with ideas. How do you like to be creative?

💚 SHARE & CONNECT
This is the time of year when birds and animals start to become more active again, and we might also feel more ready for socialising or connection. If your winter was quiet or lonely, or if you’re going through a hard time, it can feel really difficult to reach out to others - but we humans are made to live in community and relationship, and even one good conversation or moment of understanding can help. What kind of connection do you need today?

If you're looking for support as you explore your own season of growth, we’re here to help. Discover our services or book an initial consultation on our website:

EVENT UPDATE: There's been a change of speaker for May's CPD Sussex workshop, which was originally titled 'Working with Boarding School Syndrome' and was due to be led by Amelia White. We're very pleased that Rory Singer will now be leading the session, bringing his perspective on the topic through a slightly different lens.

If you have already booked your place, please see the email sent out a few days ago for all the practicalities of the change, or email maddy@newroadpsychotherapy.com if you have any questions.

If you'd like to join us, there are still a few places left! The workshop will support qualified and trainee therapists to...

🔵 Explore the clinical impact of prolonged childhood separation, considering how early emotional self-reliance shapes adult intimacy, identity, and relational defence.

⚪️ Reflect with objectivity and compassion on how early separation and institutional expectations can shape the developing self, and how therapy can support the restoration of vulnerability, dignity and relational safety.

🟠 Look closely and carefully at how the culture of institutions such as boarding school continues to live within clients long after they leave.

Our yellow room looking warm and inviting in today's spring sunshine! ☀️🌼

Alongside finding the right therapist for you and your needs, a big part of what makes therapy effective is feeling comfortable in the space where your sessions take place. Our rooms have been thoughtfully designed to offer peaceful and nurturing environments for reflection and connection, so that you can feel safe to share whatever's on your mind.

For adults, we offer therapeutic support for both individuals and couples, as well as group therapy. In addition to our standard service, we offer low cost therapy at just £27 per week for 1:1 sessions, or £17 as part of a group. For those under 18, we have practitioners who specialise in working with young people and children.

26/02/2026

Dharma, Dialogue & Meditation is a small, closed reflective practice group for those curious about exploring the integration of Buddhist teachings - particularly those from the Pali Canon - with psychotherapeutic insight and ethical enquiry. Rather than focusing on belief or doctrine, its purpose is to understand how suffering arises, and how it can be softened through awareness and relationship.

🌀 The journey:
Run in six-week blocks, the group offers an intimate and supportive container in which to regularly connect with self, others and the world through the lenses of Buddhism and psychotherapy in a grounded and accessible way. Each week will be inspired by a different theme, weaving together meditation, reflection and discussion to create a rich and meaningful environment for learning and growth.

🌿 Each session includes:
A guided meditation; a short Dharma reflection drawn from the early teachings; facilitated dialogue to help turn contemplation into lived experience; and the opportunity to come together in community with likeminded others.

🧘 Your guide:
The group is led by Rory Singer, an experienced psychotherapist whose perspective is rooted in Gestalt and Psychoanalytic traditions, alongside Buddhist teachings. In his twenties, Rory was ordained as a Buddhist monk in the Thai Forest Tradition under Ajahn Chah and Ajahn Sumedho, and lived in monasteries in England and Thailand for five years - a period that has shaped his work as a therapist and teacher ever since.

🗓️ The practical details:
Six consecutive weekly sessions
5:30-7pm on Tuesdays, 14th April - 19th May
Cost for the full series: £90, plus booking fees
Venue: New Road Psychotherapy (73 Church Road, Hove)
Limited to 8 participants

It's been lovely to welcome the sun back to Brighton and Hove this week after a very wet start to the year! Do you notice you feel differently when the weather is brighter?

When you're already feeling low or stuck, the presence of seemingly endless grey days can exacerbate those feelings. If you've found yourself struggling lately and have been considering reaching out for support, we're here to help.

We are an organisational member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and have been established for over 20 years. Across our two centres - one in Brighton, and one in Hove - we have over 70 therapists covering a wide variety of approaches. We offer support for individuals, couples, children and young people, as well as group therapy.

If affordability is a barrier, we have low cost services for both individual and group support, which are run by supervised trainee therapists completing placements with us as part of their qualifying training. Low cost sessions for individuals are £27/week, while our low cost group sessions are £17/week.

You might be...

Experiencing sadness or anxiety
Navigating change or loss
Finding it hard to cope with stress
Facing relationship challenges
Exploring your past or your identity
Feeling uncertain, lost or lonely
Living with health conditions
..or something else.

Whatever you're walking through in life, we are here to walk beside you. We can't promise sunny weather, but we can help bring some clarity and relief to the things that feel dark or heavy.

Book an initial consultation via the link below, and we'll match you with a therapist as soon as we can - for individual therapy, we currently expect to be able to do this within as little as two weeks.
