Hello, welcome to Therapy NorthWest. We support the wellbeing of adults & young people in clinics in the northwest & online. We believe that life can be challenging with a number of different pressures & demands. We do not believe that these things make us ‘abnormal’ or ‘ill’, rather that there are times when we require support to work through difficulties, what has happened and how we have responded. Zandra has many years experience working with individuals, couples, families and systems to help foster greater well-being.

Perhaps you've survived experiences that still affect how you see yourself, others or the world around you. You may be living with trauma, a history of domestic abuse, difficulties with attachment or relationships, grief and loss, or just trying to understand the parts of you that don't seem to fit neatly together. You might be neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, adopted, or simply know that something needs to change. Whatever has brought you here, we'll work together to understand what has shaped you, build on the strengths you already have and find a way forward that feels right for you.

You may look like you are coping on the outside, but inside, feel exhausted, anxious, overwhelmed, or unlike yourself. Many women I support are navigating menopause, perinatal mental health difficulties, pregnancy and infant loss, grief, or emotional burnout whilst continuing to care for everyone around them. Sleepless nights, “what if” worries, guilt, and self-criticism can feel relentless. Often, clients come to counselling wanting a calm space to breathe, feel understood, and reconnect with themselves again.

You may be successful but your worries and tendency to go over worst case scenarios in your head are so hard to control. Perhaps your anxiety is making it difficult for you to sleep well, relax, causing problems in your relationships, or bringing on panic attacks. You may have been coping by trying to block the worries out or avoid the situations that trigger your anxiety, but this is only making it harder for you to be present in your life and relationships the way you want to be. I'm here to help and let you know that you can learn to live life in the moment and learn to trust in your coping skills again.

Reaching out can be difficult. Maybe you feel stuck, anxious, unsettled, lost your way, or uncomfortable with whom you have become. The difficulties within our lives can change who we are or how we see the world. It can lead to thoughts or behaviours that take us away from who we are, resulting in a feeling of something not being right, struggling to cope or to make sense of things. When entering therapy, our life experiences enter too, and healing occurs within the processing. We will work together to build trust and explore your emotions and thoughts within a non-judgemental and safe environment, working at your own pace.

Do you carry a sense that something isn't quite right — not dramatically wrong, just a feeling that won't go away? Perhaps relationships feel harder than they should, or you're exhausted from holding everything together. For many people, these feelings trace back to childhood — not to what happened, but to what didn't: the comfort, attention or care that wasn't there. Childhood neglect can be invisible, even to the person who lived it, yet it quietly shapes adult life. We're a specialist psychotherapy clinic in Glasgow, here to help you understand why — and to find a way forward. Contact us for a free consultation.
