Counselling in Inverness

Whatever the issues you’re facing right now, if they’re clouding your day-to-day life and you want change, we can work together. Even when things seem impossible or bleak, counselling conversations can help you feel better, reconnect with yourself and find hopeful ways forward. I offer a space and an opportunity to explore whatever is going on or holding you back from the life you want, giving you time to think through muddled thoughts and confusing feelings. Our conversations will help you identify and begin to meet your emotional needs and wants, freeing you to live your life more on your own terms.

How are you today? Maybe stressed, sad, anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, worried, confused? Is it something else? I would like to help you. I specialise in helping others through life's difficulties and finding a way forward. I work online or via the telephone. I've worked with many client issues such as depression, anxiety, family issues, problems in relationships, work stress, low self esteem and confidence.

I am a pluralistically trained psychotherapist/therapist, with a background in teaching. I returned from teaching overseas in 2019 to pursue my dream of working one-on-one to support people who needed to be 'seen & heard'. Unfortunately, most of these people at the time were children and young people. I found that their issues were less about academics and more about not feeling seen or actively listened to. Life is fast-paced, and we have so many distractions, that it is easy to forget to see, hear, and be mindful of the people and world around us.

Hi my name is Sam. I work with children and young people. My focus when working with children and young people is to find a way to work with them to help with all of their areas of difficulty, from emotional to school and the variety of difficulties they can experience. I find that children and young people feel most comfortable in a familiar surrounding so I always try to work with the child in their own home or school.

I’m a BACP qualified pluralistic therapist (MBACP) and Mental Health First Aid Instructor (SQA/FAA approved). I work with you to explore challenging experiences; thoughts, feelings and behaviours that may be getting in the way of living the life you want to lead. Therapy can help with many different issues, sometimes uncovering challenges that you were unaware of. Managing difficult thoughts, emotions and behaviours; dealing with a mental health condition such as depression and anxiety; or coping with traumatic experiences and events, therapy offers a safe space to explore, to understand yourself, find ways to cope, and even grow.
