Fiona Reid Counselling – Growing in the Right Direction

Welcome to Fiona Reid Counselling

I help my clients to discover why they are struggling with life, enabling them to make changes, and feel better. I specialise in exploring how a person’s past (family, experiences, upbringing) has influenced them.

My approach is to support clients in managing their day-to-day life, before considering what has happened in the past to inform the thoughts and behaviours that are causing problems in the present. For example, we might look into the patterns that you keep repeating or work to shift that intrusive thought that you just can’t overcome.

My clients find this helps them to understand themselves better and empowers them to be able to deal with the issues they face. I believe there is always the potential to change, and sometimes, we just need another person alongside us to help. I can be that person for you, so get in touch today.

Growing in the Right Direction

I have helped clients with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, bereavement and loss, low self-esteem, relationship issues, and faith crises. I offer one-to-one counselling online or in person at my comfortable Leith office. Please get in touch using the contact me form and we can talk about how I can help you.

If you have any questions about counselling, my blog section provides insights (see this post on what a counselling session is like) or check out the FAQs for details.

Client Testimonials

Fiona’s kindness, perceptiveness and curiosity helped me get to the bottom of why I was finding life so difficult. Providing a safe space for me to be honest with myself was one thing, but her way of asking questions about my world views and assumptions was infectious and I feel like the therapy always continued long after the session had ended, and even now after our final session.

I would highly recommend Fiona - our sessions helped me get to a healthy place with things I'd been struggling with. Her calm and warm presence was very comforting in a time where I needed to express some feelings that I wasn't coping with. Through various techniques she helped me understand what I was feeling and helped me find the language to express myself.

I have received a number of follow-up cards and letters of appreciation following the end of counselling, which reflects positive client experiences of working with me.
