Therapist - Edinburgh

Sessions from £60.00

Features

Availability

I am now seeing clients from Edinburgh in an online/phone capacity only. 

My working hours are Mon-Fri 11:00am - 8pm

Clients are welcome to visit in person (to my home in Innerleithen) if they would prefer.

EMDR therapy is as effective online as it is in person, providing there is good internet connection and a decent sized screen to view.

I currently have some availability, and it would be helpful if you let me know yours when you message. Thank you!

About me and my therapy practice

I am an Integrative counsellor working from a psychodynamic base and integrating modalities such as gestalt therapy, TA, and some transpersonal therapies. If those words mean nothing to you then simply put I offer client led talking therapy, a space to be heard in. I can also offer some practical and creative exercises in times of feeling stuck, but only if you are happy to try them. My work is client led, safe, and in accordance with the BACP Ethical framework. I work with integrity, providing a warm and non judgmental atmosphere. In addition to my home practice I work as a substance use counsellor.

I offer a free initial session online, this is to give clients a chance to get to know me and decide if they would like to work with me.

 Subsequent sessions are charged at £60 per hour or £80 for EMDR process session (90 mins approx),  

I am able to offer sessions every two weeks to help spread the cost.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders.

Practice description

Counselling and EMDR therapy is effective both online, and face to face. It is necessary to have a good internet connection for successful therapy, and also essential to have a good sized screen for EMDR therapy online.

I can also offer telephone sessions if this is preferred, but cannot practice EMDR this way.

Clients are welcome to visit my home in Innerleithen for face to face sessions if you don't mind the journey!

My first session

I offer a free initial meeting, either online or over the phone, to meet and get to know each other a little. We will talk about your needs from therapy and how we might work together. You can ask any questions you have, and following that I will send my contract which contains information about our work. From there we can decide if we feel we can work together, and arrange our first appointment.
