About me
Who am I?
I am Sheryl and I practice Person Centered Therapy. I live in a village called Fenwick just outside Kilmarnock. I live with my husband and children. You can find out more about me on line.
What do I do?
I help clients with many different conditions including depression, anxiety and bereavement. I help adults, young people and children. I work from my home in Fenwick and from an address in Newton Mearns near Glasgow. I provide person centered therapy which is essentially helping my clients to feel better about themselves and their lives.
What experience do I have?
I have wide and varied experience in this field. I am a qualified teacher and foster carer in addition to my Counselling Qualifications. I enjoy working with children and young people and draw on my teaching and caring experience. I enjoy working with adults and draw on my extensive life experience of helping people.
Why am I a counsellor?
I became a counsellor to realise a life long ambition to really listen to others. As a teacher and then an HR Manager I spent a lot of time listening and helping both children and adults. The knowledge I acquired during my recent time at University cemented this dream and turned it into a reality.
Training, qualifications & experience
- Following leaving school I attended Caledonia University where I gained a BA ( hons) Social Sciences. In my final year I majored in Psychology and my desire to find out more about people began.
- I then went to Jordanhill College of Education where I gained a Post Graduate Certificate in Primary Education.
- I changed career to HR Manager and worked in Retail for 25 years.
- I went back to University and gained a Post Graduate Certificate in Person Centered Counselling.
- I enjoyed the experience so much I returned again and gained a Post Graduate Diploma in Person Centered Counselling as well.
- I am currently a foster carer.

Other areas of counselling I deal with
I enjoy working with children and young people. As a foster carer I have a lot of knowledge and experience to draw from.
I am available to see children within the school environment and would be happy to liaise with your child's school to discuss this further.
Most of the children I work with suffer from anxiety and/or panic attacks related to the complications of growing up in a world full of technology and high attainment expectations.
Fees
£40 per hour.
I offer a special day time rate of £35 per hour for clients attending between 10am and 2pm.
I offer further concessions where appropriate.
Home visits incur a rate of £50 per session.
Can I please ask for 24 hours notice of any cancellations?
Most clients come for between 8 and 12 sessions. An 8 session block is £250, a 12 session block is £400 = both offers are for day time appointments at either address.
