Counselling in City Centre, Glasgow

I am striving to provide safe, ethical, and evidence based practice for all my clients. I see each individual as a human being who has endured suffering, and accepting unconditionally the manifestation of these suffering you may present. I would work with you collaboratively to understand your difficulties and accompany you in the journey of discovery of your own strengths, building resilience, and developing an adaptive way of coping in life. I work in an integrative, and trauma informed way in which different approaches may combine to suit your needs at any given time. Therapeutic approaches I am experienced with are listed.

Online Therapy available amid COVID-19 Concerns. My passion for psychology is deeply rooted in my interest of human happiness. I sincerely believe in the practical benefits of a life spent helping others, fully investing in the cultivation of empathy and compassion. With this end in mind I have always sought out challenging and rewarding opportunities to work with people and to study human relationships and problems. I have an extensive understanding of the range of issues relevant to mental health with a range of client populations and a capacity to critically evaluate the role of different psycho-therapeutic models.

I believe that each person is unique and the expert of their own lived experience. As an integrative counsellor, I understand there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Instead, I will work collaboratively with you to identify your preferences and goals, drawing on different theories and methods that are most helpful for you. I take a strengths-based approach, identifying and building on your existing skills and resourcefulness to bring about change. I will seek to co-create a respectful therapeutic relationship that provides the safety you need to explore the experiences that brought you to counselling.

Being human is hard, but you don't have to go it alone. I can help you gain clarity about your needs and values. To slow down and pay more attention to your thoughts and emotional or behavioural patterns, which may be happening automatically or out of habit. To understand what their intentions are or what they’re trying to tell you about your life. To understand how you relate and talk to yourself, and to develop a more compassionate voice towards your self. This understanding will then be our guide for helping you to set goals and priorities for your therapy or your life, and for supporting you to work towards them.

I'm here to work with anybody no matter what issue they may bring, every individual has their own goals and I can help facilitate you reaching these!

Solution Focus Therapy is a unique approach where in atmosphere of safety and understanding we will speak briefly about issues you will bring to the therapy sessions however we will focus on solutions rather then on problems. As a Solution Focused Therapist I will offer support in expressing your thoughts and feelings where awareness can rise and leads you to making a better and healthier choices in your life.

I am a charted counselling psychologist and believe that the key for successful therapy is the cooperation between clients (you) and myself. I aim to promote honest conversations regarding your needs, goals and aims, along with my ability to help you meet these. I am able to provide therapy both in English and Greek, and have developed a passion for e-therapy. E-Therapy is personal as the video function helps promote the therapeutic relationship while also being practical and time effective by taking away the hassle of travelling for your sessions. E-therapy can be complemented with face to face sessions every few months.

Hello and thank you for looking at my profile! Day to day life can be difficult at times and most of us can benefit from the support and help of psychotherapy during challenging periods. I am an experienced Chartered Counselling Psychologist and work with adults, young people and couples on a wide range of difficulties. I work by integrating a number of approaches to provide each of my clients with a therapeutic experience which is unique to them and their individual needs.

We are all unique individuals, so it makes sense that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach. I aim to provide a non-judgmental and compassionate space for individuals of all flavours to work through their difficulties. Gender and sexuality may not be the reason you are seeking therapy, but I understand the significance these parts of you may play in your life. Therapy should never be a place where you feel the need to watch what you say or educate your own therapist about who you are. Therapy is time for you.

I am very skilled and experienced in working with mental health issues such as Depression and Anxiety, as well as addictive behaviour and related issues such as trauma. I have been a mental health professional for 45yrs, both as a Mental Health Nurse and as a BACP Registered Therapist. I have also survived my own life issues, including addictions and have been sober for 25yrs. I feel that having professional qualifications as well as lived experience helps me to make a stronger connection with my clients

When it is time to talk to someone, finding the right professional is an important step. I specialise in helping people move through traumatic events, loss, and unhelpful patterns (recent and past), towards growth, recovery and freedom. My approach is supportive and respectful. In therapy, I focus on witnessing what you have been through, understanding where you want to get to, and working with you to get the results you are looking for. Please visit my website to see what previous clients have said about our work together.

The idea of my approach is an integrative one: I've studied, and I'm qualified to deliver, a mixed modality of therapies to address client issues. From psychodynamic active listening and using a safe space to get things out in the open, or perhaps using CBT techniques to address something specific, either way - I'm equipped to help guide you through what it is that is troubling you, or holding you back, from moving forward.

I offer to meet you wherever and however you are in your life right now. I accept you as you are and regard your feelings as authentic. During our therapy session, there is time and a safe and confidential space for you to explore your emotions. Through our therapeutic relationship, I will provide an environment for you to ground yourself to gain a better understanding of your struggles and what tools are there to help you. I believe that each person is different, so I don’t judge you or your feelings and I do not use labels or put expectations on you.

At Yorkhill Childrens’ Hospital, Cross House Paediatic Unit and Glasgow Royal Infirmary, I helped children and adults manage illness, pain and invasive treatments. In Maternity & Neonatal Services, I supported couples during pregnancy, after traumatic birth and loss and supported families with babies in SCBU and ICU. I've worked in Adult Services, both in community mental health services and alongside the medical profession in hospitals. I worked for more than six years at the Canniesburn Plastic Surgery and Burns unit supporting individuals with poor body image, changes in functioning due to illness or injury and PTSD.

Sometimes we can feel stuck in life, and find ourselves caught in a cycle of unhelpful behaviour patterns or ways of relating to ourselves and others. We may feel conflicted,anxious sad or depressed but don't know why. We want to understand ourselves better and to be understood by others. We want to achieve inner peace but we don’t know how to, or feel we have the capacity to make changes or achieve lasting healing.

My ideal client is a queer person looking to enhance their self love and enjoyment of relationships. They are curious about owning their sexuality and being a more open and authentic person in general. They are open to mindfulness and creating rituals to become more intentional in their lives. I'm looking for clients that understand that the world isn't very supportive of them and they want to become more able to handle the challenges of the world while also moving forward with a clear understanding of their values.

My name is Marion and I am a counsellor and psychotherapist, with a background in nursing. Considering therapy can feel extremely daunting especially if you are already feeling low mood, anxiety or out of sorts. I can offer you a safe and confidential space where we can collaboratively explore what's keeping your problems going. I am currently working as a psychotherapist in the third sector delivering therapy to clients with a wide range of psychological difficulties. I deliver predominantly CBT, however depending on your needs I will integrate other approaches, one being compassion focused therapy (CFT).
