About me
Conor is a psychotherapist based in Glasgow City Centre. He offers flexible rates depending on income.
"Many people start counselling with me because life has started to feel overwhelming or specific issues are really getting in the way. I work most often with Anxiety, Depression, Relationship issues, Suicidal thoughts, Self Harm, Anger, Loneliness, Intrusive thoughts, Attachment issues, compulsive behaviours and identity. You might be lying awake at night replaying conversations, worrying about work or relationships, or feeling stuck in old patterns you can’t seem to shift. Maybe you’re exhausted from trying to hold everything together, or noticing that anxiety, stress or low mood are beginning to take over more of your day. I also work with anger, loneliness and people who have a hard time communicating their feelings."
"I offers a calm, steady space where we can talk openly and make sense of what’s happening. My approach is person-centred and grounded in authenticity, respect and egalitarian values. I work to not pass judgement or push in any particular direction before really understanding what's going on. Instead, we work together to find out what might be helpful.."
Before becoming a counsellor, Conor worked in healthcare and in roles where he supported people through pain, pressure and uncertainty. This experience was formative in understanding what it’s like to carry stress in both the body and mind, being overlooked or left behind by the system and how difficult it can be to ask for help.
If you’re ready to talk to someone who is committed to walk alongside you rather than trying to get through their caseload for the day, Conor is here to help. Get in touch and we can explore whether working together feels right for you.

Member organisations
COSCA is the professional body for counselling and psychotherapy in Scotland, and seeks to advance all forms of counselling and psychotherapy and the use of counselling skills by promoting best practice and through the delivery of a range of sustainable services. COSCA Counsellor Accreditation is a pathway to entry onto the UKRC. It is a requirement of all individual and organisational members of COSCA to abide by its Statement of Ethics and Code of Practice and be accountable to the Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Flexible Fees to Keep Therapy Accessible
I offer a means-based fee system to make counselling available to as many people as possible. The recommended session fee is £60, but if this isn’t manageable for you, we can discuss a rate that better fits your circumstances. Equally, if you are in a position to pay more, you are contributing to the running of a progressive and inclusive counselling practice.
