Hi, I’m Siobhan, a CBT Therapist based in a cosy space in the heart of Edinburgh. I offer both in-person and online sessions. I specialise in working with anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, burnout, depression as well as specific fears. Many of my clients are students, recent graduates or people navigating transitions into work or new life stages. I often work with students feeling overwhelmed, graduates unsure of their direction and people who have recently moved to Edinburgh and are finding it harder than expected to settle. I also support neurodivergent clients, including ADHD and those in tech, digital, or creative industries.
I offer evidence-based CBT tailored to your needs, sometimes combined with Compassion-Focused, Person-Centred, Solution-Focused approaches, and mindfulness. Together we explore challenges, understand patterns, and build practical tools to help you feel calmer, more confident, grounded, and in control of your life.
Starting therapy can feel daunting, but you don’t need to have everything figured out. I offer a warm, non-judgemental space, meeting you where you’re at and going at your pace. If it feels like a good fit, we can arrange a chat to discuss your goals. Flexible online and in-person sessions, with some concession rates.
