Supporting you on the road to emotional wellness
We are a group of person-centred counsellors who are committed to providing supportive, therapeutic relationships for our clients, enabling them to develop, grow and heal.
We welcome diversity and are passionate about providing inclusive person-centred therapeutic services.
ABOUT US
Empathic, authentic and approachable
All our counsellors are unapologetically, fundamentally human.
They are qualified to diploma level and are committed to maintaining their competence through continued professional development.
To ensure safe and ethical practice, they have undergone Protecting Vulnerable Group (PVG) checks and adhere to the COSCA and / or BACP ethical and professional guidelines.
We operate across Scotland, with locations in Stirlingshire, Lanarkshire and Edinburgh, offering counselling services in person and online.

Where healing begins and change happens
The Counselling Collective offer safe, confidential and welcoming spaces where you will be accepted as you are. By encouraging you to explore your own unique life experiences, learn more about yourself and your relationships with others, we’ll work with you to identify what you need and want in your life, helping you feel more whole and able to live life more fully.
While our primary focus is on person-centred counselling, we also provide a range of therapeutic services including complementary therapies at our premises in South Lanarkshire.
As part of our ambition to provide welcoming therapeutic experiences to as many people as possible, we also deliver women’s wellbeing circles and personal development workshops across Scotland.
