Non-Binary Counselling in Kilmarnock, SCT

In a society where individualism, competition and oppression of what is different are dominant, it is hard to find ways for our lives to unfold in expressive and mutually empowering relationship with fellow humans and more than human beings. The relational issues passed through generations that had a traumatic impact on our upbringing, the difficulties related to changes and challenges we encounter throughout our lives, the fear that comes with the uncertainty of an unpredictable future, can be addressed through therapy so that we can bring more joy, ease and agency into our lives.

Do you sometimes feel like there’s a tug of war happening inside your head, find it impossible to make decisions and stick to things, or find yourself acting in ways you didn’t want to? Sometimes, different parts of us have conflicting ideas about what we need, and might even try to help us in ways that make our lives worse! Together we can work to connect compassionately with different parts of you, listen to their stories and understand why they behave the way they do, helping you to gain clarity and make life-affirming choices in the present.

Life can throw many things at us, sometimes we need help finding new ways of coping and sometimes we just need to offload knowing someone is hearing us. Whether you need help dealing with everyday stresses or you’re feeling the burden of carrying guilt or shame. I’m here to help ease that burden or help develop new ways of managing life. I work in a very integrative way; I believe strongly that we are all different and that what works for one person might not work for another.

Hello, I'm Lisa :) I am an experienced person-centred counsellor working with individuals (aged 16 years and over) and families.
