About me
Hi, I’m Jamie-Lee, I understand that reaching out for counselling can feel a bit daunting. So well done on taking that first step.
Life can be stressful and overwhelming at times, it can be difficult to put ourselves first, or make sense of how we are feeling. Sometimes we can feel stuck or we can struggle to see a way past what we are going through right now. Whatever has brought you here, I’m here to listen and support you at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
My aim is to offer you a safe, welcoming and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and understood. A place where you can take a little moment for yourself to slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing and begin to understand yourself with kindness and self compassion.
I believe counselling should feel personal to you, rather than following a one size fits all approach. As a pluralistic counsellor, I am flexible and draw on different ways of working depending on what feels most helpful for you. We can explore what you need, what matters to you and together we can find a way to help make this feel a little bit easier.
I support adults and young people with a range of experiences, including anxiety, low mood, self-esteem, bereavement, life changes and perinatal experiences, including miscarriage, abortion and baby loss.
Before deciding whether counselling feels right for you, I offer all new clients a free 20–30 minute online introductory call. This is simply a chance for us to meet, for you to ask questions and to get a feel for me and how I work. There’s no pressure or commitment to continue. Parents and carers are also welcome to join introductory calls for young people.
Sessions are available face-to-face in Dundee City Centre, Walk and Talk sessions are available at different locations around Dundee, and remote sessions are also available by phone or video call.

Member organisations
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.
Accredited register membership
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
