HERE’S A BIT ABOUT ME
Malcolm Bateup
As a caring and open empathic person, I offer counselling that puts you at ease and makes you feel safe to enable you to be able to open-up about sharing difficult life issues.
I believe this approach comes from my own personal life and lived experience of mental health and led to my self help book ‘Live your Life Like you have Lived it before’ being published in 2018.
With over 25 years in the health and counselling, and as a certified member of all the leading professional organisations. I have worked with individuals and couples, in Shoreham-by-Sea and across Sussex, on issues including relationships, addictions, sexual problems, anxiety, depression, conflict and lots more.
TRADITIONAL COUNSELLING
Face to Face Counsellor
I am delighted to be able to offer traditional face to face counselling once again following the relaxation of lockdown rules.
My comfortable room at the Yoga & Wellness Rooms in Shoreham is a safe, quiet and relaxing space to chat and explore feelings and issues.
The space is large enough for couple counselling as well as individual sessions… all current recommended Covid protocols will be followed.
OPEN AIR COUNSELLING
Walk and Talk Counsellor
Is there anything easier than walking and talking? Stripping away the intimidating therapy room and the anxiety induced by a formal appointment, my Walk & Talk counselling does what it says.
The physical act of walking can really help you understand & process thoughts and feelings, and so it’s the perfect way to help discuss issues that are troubling you.
ONLINE COUNSELLING
Safe & Secure Video Counselling
As the Pandemic has made us all engage with technology and look for alternatives ways to communicate, online video based counselling has become increasingly popular. Sessions on video allow the participants to be in a location they feel comfortable to talk
COUPLES COUNSELLING
Relationship Counselling
Couples counselling can be daunting process. I create a relaxed environment where individuals feel at ease to express themselves and be affectively listened to. In feeling safe to open up and talk, it is easier for the couple to explore issues impacting their relationship.
My relationship counselling helps couples with issues ranging from marriage guidance to domestic violence.

Giving you the skills to help you to cope more effectively and feel more in control of your life going forward
Malcolm is continuously supportive and adaptable to my needs. Even after I walk away from my session, his advice resonates with me throughout my week. He just provides comfort. My sessions with Malcolm have filled me with hope.
Cannot recommend Malcolm enough. Couples counselling has helped us gain new perspectives about each other and the same we can relate overcome challenges and reframe our relationship together.
I truly recommend MB Counselling Services. I was super nervous to get help but it’s the best thing I ever did. He is the perfect person to go to with anxiety confidence stress self esteem life problems and being overwhelmed. Is there a 10 star button because I would rate him that.
Malcolm’s counselling has helped me cope with separation from my wife of 16 years and find a way towards a new future.
Malcolm is very easy to talk to and makes me feel safe and secure. Which is very important when you are talking about your most private thoughts and feelings.
Malcolm was very compassionate… and empathetic with what I had been through. The sessions also helped me find clarity and new perspectives with my relationship.
We had split up when we started counseling, but with Malcolm’s help we are now living together and our relationship is stronger than it ever was.
Malcolm helped me to accept who I am and enabled me to build up trust and form relationships in the future.
Malcolm enabled me in time to come to terms with my identity as a gay man and to be proud of who I am. Thanks to Malcolm I am now in a new relationship and studying for a degree.
Thank you, Malcolm, for your professionalism, kindness and support in helping me to have the freedom to drive with confidence!
