COUNSELLING

SUPPORTING MENTAL HEALTH AND PROBLEMATIC ALCOHOL OR SUBSTANCE USE

We offer confidential, one-to-one counselling for individuals, families and significant others affected by mental health challenges and problematic alcohol or substance use.


With qualified counsellors across Fife, you will be seen within 21 days, allowing you to access support when you need it.


Whether you are struggling with anxiety, low mood, trauma, relationship difficulties, or concerns around alcohol or substance use, we provide a safe space to explore what is happening and what needs to change.

Who Is This For

  • Individuals experiencing mental health difficulties linked to alcohol or substance use
  • People whose mental health is affecting their relationship with alcohol or substance
  • Family members impacted by someone else’s use
  • Those seeking emotional clarity or stability
  • People in recovery who want ongoing psychological support


If you are unsure what support is right for you, our Triage service can help guide you. 

What We Offer

  Your counselling is shaped around your goals. That may include:  


  • Improving mental wellbeing
  • Reducing anxiety, depression or trauma symptoms
  • Controlled drinking or abstinence
  • Strengthening relationships
  • Building emotional regulation skills
  • Relapse prevention


We use a collaborative, recovery-focused approach that reflects your circumstances, values and aspirations. Sessions provide a safe, non-judgemental space to explore emotional, practical and psychological challenges.  


Alongside one-to-one counselling, we also offer: 


Single Session Therapy

One focused session to explore a specific issue and agree practical next steps.


EMDR

Specialist trauma therapy for individuals affected by traumatic experiences.
