I understand therapy can feel really daunting and scary at times, the good news is that you are looking here to make a start . We are not designed to figure out life and all its complexities alone. We can see and experience a lot in our lives and that can have a significant impact on us. It can be exhausting but it doesn't have to be like that. You deserve happiness and emotional freedom and I can help you to achieve that. I am relational and supportive in my style and create a bespoke therapy suited for the individual/couple using several evidence-based interventions to help improve your psychological and emotional well-being.
The significance of being heard and valued by respecting your story will help you gain insight into yourself. Explore how your life's context has shaped how this has influenced your perception of yourself and how you relate to the world and others. It is important to balance support alongside the challenge to allow space for growth and change.
I see you as a person and I hear the journey you have travelled. I invite you to connect to the part of you that knows you deserve the right to happiness and emotional freedom. In our lives, we see and experience many things and some of them can be deeply impactful and traumatic. Asking for support is your first step in taking back control of your life.

I'm Ruth, a CBT and REBT therapist helping clients UK wide, online, or face to face in my therapy room in Edinburgh. When life feels overwhelming, we can push our own thoughts into negative overdrive, resulting in feelings of being stuck emotionally. But there is a way out!
Take control of your negative thoughts and learn how to manage your emotions through CBT therapy.

I'm a therapist who believes in working with my clients to help them find perspective in times of struggle, without minimising what they are going through, without staying silent at the other end of the room and leaving you on your own to figure it out. I get that things are tough and I seek to work relationally. I can look back with you at past difficulties, things that went wrong, and I will work with you to find a way to integrate those issues so that they don't toxify and ruin the present. I also believe that choice and change are processes that can be learned and that we can manifest good things if we know how!

Men have been raised to be independent, silent and strong – big boys don’t cry, do they? But where do we go when things get too much at home or work – down the pub, to our local dealer, to the bookies, to our man cave, or do we just let anger out on those we love?

I use a ‘man-friendly’ practical approach to counselling men, backed up by having undertaken specialist training to provide online counselling. We talk together to understand what is happening and identify the optimum practical actions to help you move on.

We don’t get bogged down by the past. We focus on moving forward to find the solution that fits and works for you.

I see you online, so you can talk to me wherever you choose to – you don’t have to be seen walking to my office!

II offer a free 30mins conversation to help you explain what is going on and for you to experience my approach to counselling.

Hi - My name is Dianne Foy and I am an autistic/ADHD person-centred counsellor working in Renfrewshire, just outside Glasgow. My motivation to become a counsellor was my own experience of the power of counselling to deal with mental health issues and adverse life experiences. The more I understood about the connection between my current circumstances and my past, the more I felt equipped to process these experiences and face future challenges. As a late-diagnosed neurodivergent person, I have an insight into the difficulties that this can bring to everyday life. Being a counsellor allows me to work alongside clients as they gain a deeper understanding of themselves.
