Welcome, and thank you for visiting Borders & Northumberland Counselling Support. My name is Elspeth Gilliland, a counsellor and clinical supervisor based in North Northumberland. I offer one-to-one counselling sessions for adults and young people aged 13 years and over.

I also provide clinical supervision online for trainee and qualified counsellors and therapists, pastoral support staff and those in the helping professions.

At times our emotions, thoughts and feelings become overwhelming, leaving us feeling uncertain or confused. Perhaps you’re finding day-to-day life more challenging than usual, with a sense that “things aren’t quite right”. You may be struggling with long-term issues due to past experiences. A recent unexpected or distressing event could have left you feeling unable to cope as well as you’d like. Or maybe you want to explore things that you’d prefer not to share with friends and family.

Whatever the reason you are seeking professional help, I offer you a safe and confidential space where I will listen as you explore your thoughts and feelings, in your own time and without fear of judgement.
