About us
Healing for the Heart is a small charity based in Glasgow which deals with emotional and mental health and wellbeing. We provide high quality, affordable counselling. Working from comfortable premises in the city centre of Glasgow, we offer clients a safe space in which to process both past and present issues. We use various models in our work, including person centred, psychodynamic and CBT techniques, as well as resource based models of therapy. We regularly work with trauma and abuse survivors.
As well as client work, we also offer supervision to qualified and student counsellors.
Training, qualifications & experience
Healing for the Heart was established in 2018 and has delivered thousands of counselling appointments. We have a team of experienced, qualified counsellors currently working with us who are all qualified to at least a Diploma level in counselling. We are experienced in working with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, grief/loss, family difficulties, and abuse. Our counsellors all pursue their own particular fields of expertise and interests which include trauma. We also provide clinical supervision and a supervision space for anyone in senior leadership who would benefit from it.
