Supporting your employees with professional, confidential counselling can make a real difference to their wellbeing, relationships and ability to manage difficult periods in their lives.
Relationships Sussex provides workplace counselling for businesses, charities and other organisations, with face-to-face counselling available across Sussex and online counselling available across England.
Whether you need support for an individual employee or are looking for an ongoing counselling service for your organisation, we can work with you to find an approach that meets your needs.

Employees can experience personal, relationship or work-related difficulties that affect their wellbeing and everyday life. Providing access to professional counselling gives employees a confidential space to talk through what they are experiencing and consider ways forward.
Relationships Sussex provides professional counselling for employees, delivered by qualified counsellors in a safe and confidential setting.
Our workplace counselling service can include:
Counselling can be particularly valuable when an employee is going through a difficult period, experiencing relationship difficulties, facing significant life changes or finding it difficult to manage the demands of work and home life.
For organisations with employees in different locations, we can also offer telephone and online counselling. Relationships Sussex offers face to face appointments at our counselling locations in Crawley, Horsham, Worthing and Chichester.
Face-to-face counselling gives employees the opportunity to step away from their usual working environment and attend a dedicated counselling appointment in a professional, comfortable setting.
We can discuss your organisation's requirements and the most appropriate location and arrangements for the employees you are supporting.
For organisations with employees in different locations, we can also offer online counselling and telephone counselling across England, providing additional flexibility where face-to-face appointments are not practical.
We work with a range of organisations that want to provide professional counselling support for their employees.
This may be appropriate for:
We understand that every organisation is different. We can discuss your requirements with you and agree an approach that works for your employees and your organisation.
Confidentiality is an important part of effective counselling.
Employees need to feel able to speak openly and honestly with their counsellor without worrying that personal information will be passed back to their employer.
Counselling sessions are confidential, and the content of an employee's counselling sessions is not shared with their employer.
We can discuss the practical arrangements for your organisation when you contact us, including referrals, funding and how employees access counselling.

Once arrangements are in place, employees can access counselling with a qualified counsellor.
Face-to-face appointments are available in Crawley, Horsham, Worthing and Chichester, with telephone and online counselling available across England.
Employees have a confidential space to explore whatever they are experiencing with their counsellor.
Work can be an important part of someone's life, but difficulties outside work can sometimes affect how an employee feels and functions at work.
Equally, pressures within the workplace can affect relationships, confidence and wellbeing outside work.
Providing access to counselling gives employees an opportunity to talk to an independent professional about the issues affecting them.
It can be a valuable part of a wider approach to employee wellbeing and demonstrates that your organisation takes the wellbeing of its people seriously.
