About me and my therapy practice

My name is Aileen and I am Person Centred Counsellor working in the Glasgow City and surrounding areas. I am also an experienced free-lance trainer and lecturer of counselling. 

I am experienced in working with the following issues:

  • Relationship difficulties
  • Friendship difficulties
  • Family dynamic difficulties
  • Assertiveness
  • Loneliness and isolation
  • Change and transition in life
  • Anxiety and depression
  • LGBTQ+ identity/relationships
  • Rainbow families 
  • Neurodiversity
  • Loss and grief
  • Workplace stress and burnout
  • Parenting experiences
  • Self esteem

(I do not work with couples or families)

My Qualifications and Â鶹ԭ´´s:

• BA in Social Sciences

• Diploma in Counselling

• Certificate in Sexual Minority Therapy

• COSCA Supervision Certificate

• I am also a member of the Â鶹ԭ´´ (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) and PVG (Protection of Vulnerable Groups).

I have completed shorter CPD courses on topics such as Attachment, Autism Awareness, Fertility Counselling, Deaf Awareness, Cancer Awareness and Coaching and Mentoring.

I am also a Lecturer in Counsellor, CPD Trainer and Group and Reflective Practice Facilitator.

I have been in private practice for 10 years. Since qualifying, I have spent four years working as a Counsellor for Crossreach. Prior to my counselling career I was employed within the homeless sector and a Macmillan Cancer Support funded programme.

From my experience, clients frequently come for counselling as they find it too difficult to speak to family, friends and partners about challenging or unsettling issues or feelings. The counselling room offers the neutral space that can allow you to talk openly, freely and without judgement.

My first session

Each counselling session is 50 minutes long. When you come for your first session, we will spend time exploring what you would like to gain from counselling and to see if we are a good match to work together. 

From there we can arrange more sessions or you may need some time to think about this.

Counselling can be both a rewarding and challenging process, which tends to work best with regular attendance. You may not be sure how many sessions you might need or if counselling is for you. 

Our work together maybe be long-term or short-term, all of these things might become more apparent during therapy.

In addition to counselling, I have extensive experience in training and development work. I have compiled and delivered training across Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Edinburgh and Fife, both in person and online.

I am interested in working with teams and groups to help them perform better through development of listening and communication skills, learning to be with difference in groups, understanding and responding to conflict and feedback.

I have developed specific workshops on "LGBTQ Awareness for the Workplace" and "Coping with Grief, Loss and Change" and "Group Facilitation Skills"

Practice description

I have worked for many years with groups on all of these matters as well as facilitating personal development groups to increase self awareness.

I have worked with a number of organisations to deliver training including:

-FRASAC, Fife

-Dundee and Angus College, Dundee

-Way Forward Counselling Centre, Swansea

-Facilitation Skills
