Nova Eifert

I am a warm and compassionate Psychotherapist based in Hove. I  gained an MSc from the Birkbeck University in  London in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy in 2015. I am also trained as an EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitisation Reprocessing) therapist, which is the NHS recommended treatment for symptoms of trauma.

 I firmly believe the combination of talking therapy and       somatic processing (treating our nervous systems) can help my clients achieve the changes they want. 

Helping clients integrate their difficulties and trauma to find peace and acceptance is my passion. 

As a Nurse and Sexual health adviser for over 18 years in both London and Brighton, I have experience of diagnosing people with HIV, STI's. I have the  sensitivity to hold those who have experienced sexual trauma, domestic/relationship abuse as well as distress from burnout.

 Throughout my career as an NHS sexual health expert and a Psychotherapist  I have extensive  experience of working with those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, intersex and non-binary and those who might be wanting a space to explore their identity and/or sexuality as well as supporting people through their transition. 

 I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), an EMDR-trained therapist, and am also registered with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).
