Andrew Laidlaw Counselling

I can't thank Andy enough for the support and guidance he has given me since we started talking. He has been so patient and taught me a lot of skills that will help me and have helped me when I'm struggling with my mental health.
The best thing is that Andy listens and he genuinely wants to help, that's all people need sometimes, but he goes above and beyond that to help you understand and be able to help yourself and then help others.
Highly recommended, kind, supportive and encouraging.

Andrew is a quiet, sensitive man who knows just how to listen well & to prompt discerning questions. In short he is a consummate professional. If you need counselling, you’ll find Andrew to be approachable, sensitive, discerning & perhaps most importantly, kind. I can recommend him personally, having spent around 9 months talking through grief, bereavement & abandonment issues. 5 star, no doubt about it.

At my very first session, Andrew made me feel welcome, at ease and took a genuine interest in me. I felt relaxed and able to share. He asked open questions that helped me identify things in my own life and things I needed to change. He also helped me realise my worth and identified some ‘life tools’ to help improve my situation and to understand my worth. I will be booking more sessions with Andrew again in the future and would highly recommend his services. Thank you again for you help and guidance.

Andy is so understanding, patient and intuitive. He listens and can really understand the thoughts and feelings behind what you're saying, and can gently direct and suggest next steps to try in your own journey. The walks and talks are a great change of scenery and allow for some unique anecdotes!
