Anxiety Counselling for Dundee, without the journey

From the heart of Dundee, near the V&A, the Tay and the design quarter, out to its edges, from the waterfront and the centre to Lochee, Broughty Ferry and the Hilltown, online sessions make it possible to get the right support without rearranging your whole day around a single appointment.

I'm based in Hove on the Sussex coast and work with clients right across the UK by secure video. For Dundee, that means a BACP-registered counsellor specialising in addiction, anxiety, depression, relationships and trauma, available from the privacy of your own space.

I also work online with people elsewhere in Scotland, including Perth, Aberdeen, Kirkcaldy.

If you would still prefer to meet in person and can travel to the Sussex coast, you are welcome to, but for most clients in Dundee online anxiety counselling is the natural and effective choice.

Life in Dundee

Why people in Dundee reach out

Dundee has reinvented itself around design, games and its universities, but the city on the Tay also carries some of the sharpest deprivation in Scotland. Insecure work, money pressure and the contrast between the gleaming waterfront and hard-pressed neighbourhoods all shape the pressures people here carry.

Life by the sea has a slower, gentler rhythm, but it can also leave you feeling a long way from things, including good specialist support. A secure video link closes that distance completely.

Why online works in Dundee

Why people in Dundee choose online counselling

No long trip inland

Living on the coast often means the nearest specialist is a long way off. Online sessions close that distance entirely.

Human, even on a screen

The technology fades within minutes. What remains is a real, attentive conversation, the same one we'd have sitting in the room together.

Gentle when leaving home is hard

If anxiety, low mood or avoidance make leaving the house feel like too much right now, starting online from Dundee can be the gentlest possible way in.

Less time lost from work

An online hour rarely costs you a half-day, which is what makes regular sessions realistic for busy lives in Dundee.

A calm space for online anxiety counselling in Dundee

How online sessions work

Beyond the practicalities, this is the heart of how the work goes. I take a solution-focused, practical approach that works on the problems actually affecting your day-to-day life. We cover simple, deliberate exercises that help calm your nervous system and respond differently when anxiety shows up.

Practically, it couldn't be simpler: a quiet room, a device with a camera, and a steady internet connection. After a free fifteen-minute call to check the fit, you'll get a private link to join at our agreed time.

Finding support in Dundee

My online counselling sits alongside the help available locally, and it can be worth knowing what else is there. In Dundee, your GP can refer you to NHS psychological therapies, and you can find trusted self-help through NHS inform. You can find support through NHS inform; for confidential listening support, Breathing Space is free on 0800 83 85 87.

Private sessions with me usually mean you can start sooner, stay with the same counsellor throughout, and work at greater depth and pace; the two can run side by side, and I'm glad to work alongside any NHS or GP support you already have.

If you need urgent help now

This practice is not a crisis service. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 999.

For urgent mental health support, call NHS 24 on 111 for urgent mental health support. Breathing Space is free on 0800 83 85 87, and the Samaritans are on 116 123.

Dundee questions

Online Anxiety Counselling in Dundee: common questions

Can I have online anxiety counselling if I live in Dundee?

Absolutely. Dundee is well within reach, because we meet by secure video rather than in person. You'll get exactly the same specialist support as someone sitting in my Hove room.

How does online anxiety counselling work from Dundee?

We meet over a secure, private video link at a time that suits you. You'll need a quiet space, a device with a camera and a steady connection. We always begin with a free fifteen-minute call so you can ask questions and check the fit.

Does online therapy really work?

Online and in-person therapy are similarly effective for most people, and clients usually settle quickly once the screen fades into the background and the conversation takes over.

Can I use the NHS in Dundee as well as seeing you?

Yes, and many people do both. You can access support from your local NHS talking therapies or counselling service alongside our work; private counselling simply means you can usually start sooner and stay with the same counsellor throughout. I'm happy to work alongside any NHS support you're receiving.
