What is Counselling?
Counselling is a safe, confidential process where you can talk openly with a professional counsellor without fear of judgement. It offers a chance to pause, reflect, and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from counselling. Whether you’re facing a specific challenge or simply feeling stuck, counselling can help you explore what’s happening and find a path forward that feels right for you.
At Oak Counselling, you’ll be supported with empathy, respect, and care—every step of the way.

About Oak Counselling
Oak Counselling was created with one goal in mind: to offer a supportive, down-to-earth space where you feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences, free from judgement.
I’m Catriona—a qualified, professional counsellor with a person-centred, strengths-based approach. That means I’ll walk alongside you, helping you connect with your own resilience and insight as we navigate life’s challenges together.
Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, or feeling stuck during a life transition, you don’t have to do it alone. I offer flexible support through in-person, online, and walk & talk sessions, so we can work together in a way that suits you.
At Oak Counselling, growth, healing, and meaningful change are always possible—at your pace, and in your own way.
The oak tree represents strength, growth, and resilience—core values of Oak Counselling. Just as the oak stands tall through the seasons, I believe we all have the strength to overcome life’s challenges and grow through them. The Oak Counselling logo is inspired by the traditional Celtic Dara knot, reflecting the oak’s intricate and deep-rooted strength. Like the oak, the Dara knot represents tenacity, inner wisdom, and the resilience needed to grow and thrive through adversity.
Services
In-Person Counselling
In-person counselling offers a safe, confidential space to speak face-to-face with a professional counsellor. It allows for a more personal, grounded experience—where connection, presence, and non-verbal communication can play an important role in the healing process.
Telehealth Counselling
Telehealth counselling, via video or phone, offers convenient access to professional support from any private space. It allows you to connect with a qualified counsellor without the need for travel, making therapy more accessible for those with busy schedules or limited mobility.
Walk & Talk Counselling
Walk & Talk counselling takes the counselling session outdoors into the natural environment. You will participate in counselling while walking around a park or even sitting on a park bench, blending conversation, movement, and nature to help ease the mind and body.
