Welcome to New Leaf Counselling

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin? You don’t have to figure it out alone. I offer a warm, supportive space to help you make sense of what’s happening and find a way forward – at your pace. Together, we can take time to understand what you are struggling with and work towards changes that work for you.

How counselling and psychotherapy can help you

If you are struggling with your mental health, experiencing stress or relationship difficulties, counselling can help you move forward and feel less alone. Together, we can reflect on what is not working and develop strategies to support your well-being.

Psychotherapy involves more in-depth exploration of what lies beneath your current struggles. Through giving care and attention to deeply buried parts of ourselves, psychotherapy can bring relief from longstanding emotional pain. When our difficult experiences are held safely and respectfully by another person, it can be a powerful catalyst for change.

Counselling Services

In person

I offer one-to-one counselling and psychotherapy for adults from my Castle Douglas office in Dumfries and Galloway. I can work with people who have never done any counselling, as well as with those who have tried a few different things already. I work with each one of my clients differently, depending on what they need to feel safe, process, and recover.

Online

You may be based elsewhere in the country, or perhaps your schedule is too busy to accommodate in person attendance. Online sessions are accessible from anywhere, providing you have a private space where you feel comfortable to open up. We will meet at the same time every week, on a secure and confidential online platform.
