Counselling
Our team of highly qualified counsellors works with adults, both individuals and couples. We provide counselling for those who have been affected by issues such as trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, loss and bereavement.
Our counsellors value each person as an individual, help clients to explore and make sense of their situation and discover a way forward.
Counselling is available online and in person in Linlithgow however we currently have a long waiting list.
