Melanie Lee

I have availability in my practice for adult individuals. Either online using Zoom, UK-wide or Walk & Talk sessions in the daytime in East Lothian, Scotland (usually Cockenzie, but other options available). I currently offer sessions Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday daytime 8am+ and Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

I am an integrative counsellor - trained in person-centred, psychodynamic and relationship counselling. I am happy to work short or longer term. I love working with a diverse range of clients - all genders, sexualities, ages etc. I am down-to-earth, warm, can be gently challenging (if that's ok), ok with dark humour and swear words (but can omit both too). I love working authentically with clients to help people feel unstuck, uplifted, calmer, move forward, find courage etc.

I have been a counsellor for over a decade and wish I could share some of the things my clients have said about the difference our work together has made - it's very humbling as well as a great honour to do this work.

I work online UK-wide using Zoom and in person for Walk & Talk sessions in East Lothian, Scotland.

I charge my standard rate for the first session which is usually online using Zoom as we often do a lot in this session and you will usually get resources after. It's a chance to ask any questions you might have and really see/feel how it might be to work together.

If it's important to you to have a shorter chat before this please get in touch and we can arrange this.

I offer supervision on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I have space for additional supervisees.

I offer supervision online, UK-wide, using Zoom. My core supervision model is the 7-eyed model which really helps us to look at your case load (and anything else we need to cover) through a number of different lenses. I am integrative - trained in the dialogue between person-centred and psychodynamic (Edinburgh University PG Dip) with extra training in relationship counselling, some CBT tools, mindfulness, breathwork and yoga. I am currently exploring Bibliotherapist work too so cam bring in creative writing. As well as my private practice I counselled in the NHS for a decade and was a placement manager.

My private practice is online using Zoom and Walk & Talk sessions in nature.

I am happy to have a free short 20-30 minute Zoom call to meet to see if I feel like the right fit for you.
