Originally from Manchester, I now live in Glasgow. I started my counselling training in London on Goldsmith University’s Graduate Certificate in Humanistic & Psychodynamic Counselling, before completing the University of Strathclyde’s MSc, Counselling & Psychotherapy. At Strathclyde I trained in Person-Centred Therapy and this forms the basis of my practice. I have experience working with a wide variety of people, I’m particularly familiar with autism and neurodiversity, and I work with all kinds of issues including depression and anxiety, as well as those vague feelings of just not being what you ought to be.

I am an experienced therapist, with around 30 years in practice helping people who feel stuck or disconnected, who are suffering losses, in transitions in life, or struggling with something that just doesn't feel right. If that sounds like you, you may wonder whether it's even possible to feel alright in the world as it is, or maybe there's something in your past or present experience that you've never really felt able to speak about. Counselling, an attuned, non-judgmental relationship in which it's safe to explore, can really shift your experience.

Hi, I’m a psychosynthesis counsellor supporting people who feel stuck between who they are and who they sense they could become. I work with clients navigating life transitions, loss of meaning, and the feeling that something deeper is calling for attention. Living with inner conflict and uncertainty can feel confusing and isolating. Maybe you find yourself overthinking decisions, questioning your purpose, or sensing untapped potential you’re unsure how to reach.

Hi, I'm Jem. In the counselling room, I welcome the whole self, mind, body, and spirit. Metaphors and analogies often help make sense of complex emotions, and I see therapy as a journey. In our sessions, we’ll map the inner landscape of your life: understanding what shaped its mountains and valleys, how its well-worn paths were formed, and where new routes might lead. My aim is to help you process your experiences, clarify your goals, and help you step into your role as an active agent of change, empowered to create the shifts you want in your life.

I’m Dr Luke, a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist offering online therapy across the UK. I work with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or highly self-critical, often during periods of change in health, work, or relationships. Many of the people I help are thoughtful and capable on the outside, yet struggle internally with pressure, doubt, or feeling disconnected from what really matters to them. Therapy can offer a space to slow things down, make sense of patterns, and begin living more in line with your values.

Hello, I'm Sarahanne. Here is a space where untangling the mess is welcome, growth is possible, and being human is enough. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, or simply curious about who you are and what comes next, therapy offers a place to pause, reflect, and reconnect—with yourself and with what matters most. This isn’t about fixing you—because you’re not broken. It’s about understanding your story, gently exploring the patterns that no longer serve you, and making space for something new. You're not alone in this. Let’s start where you are.

At different times in our lives we go through challenges that can affect how we feel and have a negative impact on us. We all have unique ways of dealing with situations. At these times, many people find it helpful to explore, in a safe space, how they are feeling with somebody else.

Pain, manifests in many varied ‘illnesses’. Whether they be Physical or Psychological. It could be Arthritis, ADHD, Addictions, or Mental Ill Health. The root cause is always some environmental trigger, whether in childhood or adulthood. The Medical Institutions treat only the symptoms of this pain, not the causes. Pharmacotherapy can be beneficial in the short term, to alleviate intense physical or psychic pain, but Western Medicine, has demonstrably failed, to address the causes and manifestations, of chronic illness: physical or psychological. I offer an initial Assessment of cause and create a comprehensive, self care plan.

Spirituality Counsellors
What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?
Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.

What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?
There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviours. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualisation, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.

Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?
Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.

How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?
​​Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
