Here and Now Counselling
East Kilbride

Counsellor in East Kilbride, Hamilton, Glasgow South and East Ayrshire

My name is Susan Boland and I have been a practising counsellor/Therapist in East Kilbride, Hamilton and surrounding areas for the past five years. I am committed to providing counselling in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment. As a Trained Therapist I have worked with both individuals and couples on an open-ended basis or for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully.

My Personal Approach is Person Centred. I listen while you express yourself. This method of supportive therapy focuses on the ‘here and now’ principle, and encourages counselling clients to explore and create positive change for themselves.

Counselling you in a person centred way allows you, the client to explore your thoughts, feelings and emotions in a confidential environment. It gives you the opportunity to express concerns and problems and to achieve clarity of thought. Having explored feelings and emotions you will then be more able to think the issues through, until clarity is achieved. This allows you to understand the meaning behind your feelings and emotions, and to decide what positive steps, towards change, to take next. It also increases your self-awareness and offers personal insight.
