About me
As a counsellor, my role is to build a safe and trusting relationship that will allow you to experience emotional healing and transformation.
If you're suffering from anxiety, depression or stress, feeling stuck or facing a major change in your life, you can draw strength from talking to someone acceptant, non-judgmental and empathetic, outside your family and circle of friends.
As we journey together, we will identify and address the different challenges you are facing, going to their roots to overcome hardship and develop resilience. Together, we will find a way for you to be released and to experience breakthrough in your life.
Counselling can help you to understand and know yourself better, which can lead to lasting changes that can help you live a more fulfilling life and feel better about yourself. Talking at your own pace with the right counsellor will help you to approach your concerns in a new way, giving you a better understanding of yourself with the clarity to identify your options.
I offer a compassionate therapeutic environment with confidential boundaries. I work empathically with adults of all ages and have experience in working with a variety of issues.
I mainly work online which allows me to support you wherever you live. If you prefer meeting face to face, I can arrange to meet in a counselling room in Glasgow city centre.

I am qualified as a Person-centered counsellor (MACC-registered) with an additional psychodynamic sensitivity. I undertook my placement in an NHS Hospice and volunteered as a grief counsellor with CRUSE Scotland.
I have always been drawn to learning about psychology and to experience for myself a life released from traumas. Travelling, discovering new cultures and getting involved in social projects have enriched me and taught me how beautifully complex and unique each human being is.
TESTIMONIAL - published with permission
"Aude is a warm and encouraging counsellor. Her strategies were empowering as I worked through trauma. Like a compass, she helped me recognise the way forward as I gained ground." Hazel
"I found Aude to be extremely easy to communicate with. Her listening skills, gentle guidance and wonderful encouragement were highlights for me. She has a tender way of leading through difficult situations.
I would highly recommend Aude as a counsellor, we have already guided friends her way." Ashlyn
"When I started counselling, I was met with respect that I felt I have had so little of in my life. And from there: openness and understanding. I was able to confront my problems which I never thought I could do.
With Aude's help, I was able to break away from doubt and see hope." Aidan
"Aude is truly fantastic at what she does and always knows the right questions to ask to get to the heart of what is going on.
She is encouraging and wise, and I would recommend her counselling services to anyone!" Bronya

Further information
My practice is open to both English and French speakers.
I mainly work online. Not only does this format save time, recent studies showed it also helps people feel safe and open up more (a necessary prerequisite for in-depth work). We would have secure and confidential video sessions (link sent by email – Zoom or Teams).
If you prefer meeting face to face, I can arrange to meet in a counselling room in Glasgow city centre.
