Stephen Murray

As a Counsellor and Psychotherapist I am an accredited professional with both the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and NCPS (National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society). I work within the Ethical frameworks therein. I am fully insured to practice and I am enrolled with Disclosure Scotland's PVG Scheme. All certificates, insurances and qualifications are always available to my clients. I am a qualified integrative CBT therapist and use other psychotherapeutic approaches depending what challenges individual clients bring.

Within my approach creating a collaborative relationship and providing a space where you feel listened to, where you can express yourself without judgment is the first step. My approach also involves explorations of your problems, psycho-education and coaching. I will offer insight and guidance to your problems which means at times sessions will be more of a discussion rather than me sitting in silence. I use an integrative approach and a range of tools and techniques to help you understand you.

Entering into therapy can be a big step and I will try and ensure the start of your therapeutic journey is as smooth as possible. You can contact me via e-mail, message or Telephone which ever you are most comfortable with.
