Stephen Forrest, Psychotherapist | BA (Hons), MA (Psych), MA (Ex.Psych)

I am a psychotherapist with 27 years of clinical experience in NHS and private practice, working with adults in Glasgow and online with English-speaking patients in the UK and internationally.

People come to me with very different difficulties. Some are struggling with acute or chronic anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, or relationship problems. Others have been trying to manage something for years: recurring patterns in relationships, difficulties with internal stability, a persistent sense that something is wrong, or a feeling that their life has become disconnected from what really matters to them.

Some have already tried various therapies with varying degrees of success. Some have received diagnoses or other forms of treatment. Others simply know that something isn't right, but cannot quite put their finger on what it is.

You don’t need to know exactly what is wrong before seeking help.

The starting point is to understand what is happening with you, how you came to be where you are, what continues to maintain your difficulties, and what you want to change.
