Its time to see yourself in a different light
Feeling overwhelmed about starting therapy
Experienced Pluralistic Psychotherapist
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step—whether you’ve had therapy before or are completely new to it. At Sisu Counselling, my aim is to make that first step feel as comfortable, safe, and approachable as possible.
I offer counselling in Dumfries and counselling in New Abbey, providing a calm, confidential, and supportive space where you can talk openly and be truly heard.
As a pluralistic counsellor with over 19 years’ experience in psychology, counselling, and mental health, I tailor my approach to suit you as an individual. Together, we can explore whatever feels most important in your life right now.
I work with a range of issues including anxiety, depression, loneliness, trauma, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, and adoption-related experiences. I offer both focused, short-term counselling and longer-term psychotherapy, depending on your needs.
I support adults and young people, and as a trained relationship counsellor, I also work with couples, families, and individuals.
Perhaps you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or ready for change—whatever brings you here, you’re welcome.
Is it time to begin seeing things in a new light?

“This was a lifechanging experience. Linda helped me understand my feelings and understand my patterns. I’m so grateful for her support. I look forward to getting up in the morning now”

"I didn't know what to expect. I was anxious about being judged. Linda was the opposite, she explained everything. I felt safe, heard and well she just got me!."
Mark
"Who knew that this would shift so much in in my life in such a positive way. If I had known what counselling would do I'd have done it many years ago."
