My PHILOPSHY:

‘At some point we all need a safe place to grow, develop, to find inner strength and to look to the future with confidence. Counselling and psychotherapy help you to deal with your issues and free yourself from things that do not allow you to be happy, whether they are on the outside or within you’.
Joanna Satula-McGirr

At Here-For-You Counselling and Psychotherapy I provide short and long term counselling, psychotherapy and supervision in Tullibody near Stirling and Alloa and in Dollar, in Clackmannanshire, Scotland, for adults, couples, children and adolescents.

I work with people seeking help for a variety of reasons; people come for counselling and psychotherapy because they want to improve their lives, work/career or relationships. Often people come because they need help to overcome difficulties life brings, for example sudden change, loss or bereavement or suffer from depression, anxiety, phobias or stress. Some other people want counselling to help with their self development, to gain self awareness, increase their self esteem or confidence, others want help to manage their anger.

During the sessions I offer my knowledge and experience in working with people as a counsellor and psychotherapist, and a trusting relationship and space to explore your issues and find a way forward. There is no one type of therapy that would suit everyone and for this reason I offer integrative psychotherapy and, depending on what suits you and the nature of the issue, various therapeutic techniques to help you overcome the difficulties. I offer person centred counselling and integrative psychotherapy using elements of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), narrative or solution focused brief therapy and emotional freedom technique (EFT).

I believe that each person has a capacity within to grow and make the most of their lives. Sometimes, however, things happen and people need help, time and safe space to find out what they need or want and to make changes. And that is when counselling and psychotherapy can be of help.

I know that I have been able to help many people in the past and I do hope that I will be able to help you.

At ‘Here-For-You’ Counselling and Psychotherapy I also offer bespoke training, facilitation, courses and groups in the area of mental health and well being. Although I offer counselling mainly in Tullibody between Stirling and Alloa and in Dollar, I am happy to travel to provide tranings and workshops.
