Hello! How are you?

  Hello! How are you? We're guessing that I might already know the answer to that though and you have found yourself here because, actually you’re not feeling all that good at the moment. Is that right? We all don’t feel so good sometimes and that's ok; however, sometimes, we can feel anxious, down, hurt, in pain, numb and a whole load of other things for quite a long time and that’s not ok. Why? Because the longer things go on, the worse we feel and it affects our behaviour, relationships, how we feel about ourselves, our views, work and lots of other things in life.

What Do You Want to Throw Away?

  What do you want to throw away? Some anxious feelings? Some unhelpful habits? Some low mood? Or perhaps some stress? Maybe it's a relationship, a job, some stress or painful memories.   Whatever you want to throw away, we can help. We work with you, on an individual basis, at your own pace and with your goals in mind. You, and your therapist work together, flexibly, collaboratively and in partnership, to improve your quality of life and throw away some of the things that hold you back or no longer work for you.   Our therapists and counsellors and experienced, friendly, supportive and encouraging and will tailor therapy and counselling to you.   We currently have online appointments available to anyone across the Uk and in-person appointments available at our offices in Glasgow city centre. We hope to introduce Outdoor therapy soon too. What do you want to throw away? Get in touch to find out about how we can help you throw away what isn't working for you anymore.    Best wis
