Therapy Services in Edinburgh & Online
I'm Amber, a person-centred therapist based in Edinburgh. I offer one-to-one therapy in person on George Street and online by video, with people across Scotland and England.
You don't need a diagnosis, a crisis or a clear sense of what's wrong to get in touch. If something feels heavy, confusing or just not right, that's a good enough reason to start.
How I work
My approach is person-centred and neuroaffirming. That means our sessions are shaped by you, not by a fixed agenda or a checklist of techniques. You set the pace, you decide what we explore, and you won't be treated as something to be fixed.
I'm warm, direct and real. I won't sit in neutral silence. I'll be present with you, and I'll gently challenge you when it might help.
I'm a registered member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and completed my Master's in Counselling at the University of Edinburgh.

Explore self-esteem counselling →Neuroaffirming Therapy

Explore neuroaffirming therapy →Not sure which one is right?
Many people find their experience doesn't fit neatly into one box, and it doesn't have to. Anxiety, burnout, low self-esteem and ADHD often overlap. We can work out together what to focus on, and the free intro call is a good place to start.

Your questions, answered
Do I need a diagnosis to start therapy?
No. You don't need a diagnosis, a crisis or a clear sense of what's wrong. This includes ADHD: you're welcome whether or not you have a formal diagnosis.
What is the free intro call?
A free 20-minute phone or video call where we chat about what's brought you here and whether we feel like a good fit. There's no obligation.
Can I have therapy online?
Yes. Sessions take place through secure, encrypted video platforms designed for clinical use, and the same confidentiality applies as in person. You just need a private space, a stable internet connection and a device with a camera and microphone.
Is Amber qualified and registered?
Yes. Amber holds a Master's in Counselling from the University of Edinburgh and is a registered member of the BACP. She qualified in 2023 and has worked as a counsellor full time since, following supervised placements from 2021.
Do you work with teenagers?
Yes, with young people aged 13–19. I ask for parental consent for under-16s, and I'm happy to have a brief introductory call with a parent or carer first.
Ready to take the first step?
The first step doesn't need to be perfect. It just needs to be yours. Get in touch for a free, no-obligation intro call and we can take it from there.
