David Morris
COUNSELLING

My name is David and I practise person-centred and psychodynamic counselling. I am based in Edinburgh for in-person work (where I offer both indoor and outdoor therapy options), and I also work with clients online throughout the UK. I support clients with current issues and also with issues from the past, potentially dating back to childhood. As we explore these together at your own pace, we may also find a connecting thread runs between both, with the past informing the present.

 

The focus of my work is the therapeutic relationship and in developing a trusting connection. By being empathic, authentic, supportive and non-judgemental, my aim is to offer you the conditions required to both accept yourself as you are and also facilitate the changes you want to incorporate into your life as you move forward.

 

I have experience working with a diverse range of clients, on issues including self-worth, anxiety, depression, childhood sexual abuse, bereavement, loneliness, eating disorder, self-harm, trauma and more. In other pages of this website (including in audio recordings) I will explain in more detail my own journey and the counselling options that I offer. I also have links to articles below, where I discuss some of the topics and issues within counselling that are of interest to me.

*Recognising our achievements and redefining our failures
