Mhairi Spence CBT Counselling

With you on your journey

Online and in-person counselling specialising in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious or burned out?

Life can sometimes feel heavy and hard to manage. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, stress, burnout, depression, trauma, grief, or addiction, you don’t need to face it alone. I offer a safe, supportive space where you can explore your challenges and begin to make lasting changes.

Based in Roslin (EH25, Midlothian) with free parking and good transport links, I also provide online counselling across the UK.

How I Can Help

I specialise in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) — a practical, evidence-based approach that looks at how your thoughts and behaviours affect your feelings. Together, we’ll work on gently challenging unhelpful patterns so you can find new ways forward.

Alongside CBT, I also draw on:

  • Compassion-Focused Therapy — building kindness towards yourself instead of harsh self-criticism.

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy — developing our relationship with “negative” emotions rather than working on eliminating them.

  • Mindfulness — learning to slow down racing thoughts and be more present.

  • Person-Centred Therapy — keeping your unique needs at the heart of our work.

Issues I Work With

Many people come to me for support with:

  • Anxiety & panic

  • Work stress & burnout

  • Trauma & PTSD

  • Low mood & depression

  • Addiction & recovery

  • Grief & loss

  • Self-esteem & confidence

If something isn’t listed here, feel free to ask — counselling is always tailored to you.

If you're ready for a fresh start, I will be with you on your journey.
