RACHEL SMITH

I am a psychodynamic and person centred counsellor in Edinburgh.  This illustrates that I work to help you understand and resolve issues by looking at patterns and conflicts from past experiences in your life and childhood which often influence our current thoughts, feelings and behaviours.  This helps to adjust perspective, the choices we make and brings growth and healthier ways of coping.  

The person centred aspect of my practice is to create a supportive environment to help explore thoughts, feelings and behaviours.   My focus is to provide empathy and genuineness to help guide you to find answers and grow without directing solutions.

​

I find hypnotherapy useful to help move through emotions and events that we have buried which are causing inner conflict.  It helps with anxiety, self esteem and behaviours.  It can be a gentle and effective way to shift perspective and mindset especially if these are due to unconscious patterns learned in our past through childhood or environments we've been in.

​

I welcome an initial phone call to see if you feel I would be a good fit for you to work with.
