relationship and couples counselling in glasgow
Relationship counselling is for you if a relationship is weighing on you, whether that’s with a partner, a family member, or someone else close to you. You can come on your own, to understand the patterns you keep finding yourself in and what might need to change, for you. Or you can come together as a couple, to work through what’s happening between you in a calm, balanced space where you’re both heard.
I'm Emma, a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist based in Glasgow's West End. I offer a supportive, down-to-earth space to explore what's going on and work towards change that's led by you.
Who this is for
Maybe you’re in a relationship that leaves you feeling small, unsure, or on edge. Maybe you keep ending up in the same kind of relationship, even when you don’t want to. Maybe someone you love is struggling, and it’s affecting you too. Or maybe you and your partner keep hitting the same walls and want help finding a way through together. However you come, on your own or as a couple, this is a space to think clearly about what’s happening, on your own terms.
How relationship counselling can help
CBT looks at the thoughts and patterns that keep us stuck, including the ones that show up in our closest relationships. We'll explore what's driving the dynamics you're caught in, the beliefs about yourself and others that keep certain patterns repeating, and build a clearer sense of what you need and how to hold onto it.
Counselling for couples
I also work with couples who want to understand each other better. Whether you keep going round in circles with the same arguments, you’re rebuilding trust after a difficult time, or you’re trying to decide on the way forward together, couples sessions give you both a calm, balanced space to be heard.
Together, we’ll look at the patterns that keep repeating between you, how you communicate when things get tense, and what each of you needs. My role isn’t to take sides, but to help you find a way forward that works for you both.
Couples sessions are 50 minutes, in person in Glasgow’s West End or online. If you’re not sure whether to come on your own or together, that’s fine - we can talk it through on a free introductory call.
What to expect
Sessions are 50 minutes, in-person or online. We'll start with a conversation about what's going on and what you'd like from our work together. There's no pressure and no obligation, just space to think it through.
Working together
You don't have to keep navigating this alone. If this sounds like what you need, I'd love to hear from you.
