Individual & Couples Counselling & Clinical Supervision. “Life doesn’t get better by chance, it gets better by change”. At times we can all feel anxious or uncertain of our future. Sometimes we need to make changes in order to improve our situation. However, the prospect of change can feel overwhelming, leaving us feeling disconnected, isolated and lonely. Hearing your thoughts out loud, with a professional, can be an opportunity to gain some clarity and begin the process of change. I truly believe that a small change in the way we think can make a big difference to the way we feel.

Hello, my name is Sarah. I am currently accepting new clients for Online therapy, Walk and Talk therapy and Face to Face therapy in both Tranent and North Berwick. Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or struggling to face a stressful life situation? Are you struggling to feel accepted or listened to, or feel that you don’t have anyone to talk to about your experience of trauma?

I hope to offer you a warm welcome to my therapy room. There you will find a comfortable chair with a view of the beach. I welcome clients of all ages 16 years upwards. You may have a specific issue you wish to explore, or come to find a safe space to look more deeply at things that have been troubling you. Life can throw up all kinds of curve balls that can impact in many ways. Coming to talk together can help to make sense out of what can be confusing situations, relationships and feelings. I will meet you with acceptance and give you space and time to explore your options and support your change.

Are you struggling with anxiety or depression? Unhappy, experiencing relationship problems, feeling alone or held back by trauma or bereavement? Are you seeking counselling for a child or young person? Therapy can be short term, 4-6 sessions and we can work together in a highly focused way, including exploring strategies if you wish to. For some, longer term therapy is preferred. In this we can explore issues in greater depth and you can be supported to make lasting changes in your life. For children, therapy happens in the midst of play and craft activities.

Hi, I'm Maya Tomse. I'm a Psychologist, a Psychotherapist and a Counsellor. I work with couples and individuals, online. I specialise in relationships, and troubles specific to transitions we go through, especially complex life transitions. My interest in transitions and relationships stems from my own personal experiences. I was born in Yugoslavia, a country that got torn apart by war when I was around 10 years old. Later, throughout my life I've lived and worked in many different countries and at present hold 3 different citizenships.

As a Health Psychologist, I specialise in supporting people adapt, cope and manage illness and changes in their health. I work with women's health (e.g., menopause and menstrual conditions), chronic pain, heart conditions, diabetes, and chronic fatigue. My clients often arrive feeling stuck, or depressed, anxious and overwhelmed. Others come to me due to changes in their sleep or activity levels, or with low self-esteem, chronic stress, loss of identity, and relationship difficulties. Together, we will explore your current circumstances and identify goals to help you move forward. My practice is neuroaffirmative and LGBT+ allied.

I have worked with individuals and couples bringing a varied range of issues from relationship breakdowns, anxiety, stress, depression, childhood emotional neglect, childhood abuse, confidence and self esteem issues, life transitions, bereavement, chronic ill health. I get deep satisfaction watching clients work through their issues and develop new coping strategies and tools. I love to see them leave at the end of the work smiling and content. Some even say that getting there is fun as well as satisfying. Let's get to work getting you what you want!

Many things bring us to counselling. For some, it is overwhelming emotions, such as loss or anger. For others, it is painful or restrictive marital or family relationships. Some of us seek counselling because day-to-day life feels pointless or it’s dominated by anxiety. Some of us are quite stuck: for example, you may have a part of you that wants to achieve things in life but another part of you habitually sabotages your efforts.

Is everything okay?....... This can be a difficult question to answer. Our default response is often "yes", but deep down, for a lot of us, that's simply not true. Often we struggle to verbalise it, can be exceptionally good at denying it even exists or spend copious amounts of emotional energy keeping it at bay. Perhaps you know why you don't feel okay and perhaps you don't. Either way, I can help. I offer a safe, confidential space to allow you to explore any issues you may be experiencing. "Above all things, to thine own self be true"- William Shakespeare.

I work with individuals aged 12 and up at the moment. You may have issues with anxiety or trauma and are looking for ways to regulate yourself and work through the trauma. There may be attachment issues established in childhood that have been unhelpful in adulthood. Perhaps you require a confidential place to process distressing things you have experienced, or somewhere to take ownership of your story and change your narrative.

I work with folks who are deeply committed to exploring what might be emerging in your longing for a different way that is more authentic to who you really are which happens to also be truly aligned with Earth's ways. You may arrive through loss of connection, bewilderment, longing, grief, lost, a misfit, crisis, trauma, addiction, depression, illness, betrayal, relationship breakdown. You may be longing to connect with Nature, intimately. We work with self-healing and wholing, and the Pilgrimage of Soul which includes focus on soulcentric dreamwork, deep imagination, archetypes, art, the unbidden, inner & outer journeys.
