Counselling Edinburgh:
Specialist Support for Women and Children in Balerno
Welcome. I am Julie Jamieson, a Qualified Social Worker and specialist counsellor based in Balerno, Edinburgh – Therapy can be 1:1 in person or online from anywhere.
My practice is dedicated exclusively to providing counselling for women and children, offering a safe, confidential space to navigate life’s challenges. With over 40 years of experience in the disability and care sector and lived experience in Disability, Autism and Neurodivergence, I provide more than just standard therapy; I offer trauma-informed support and specialist consultancy tailored to your unique needs.
Whether you are looking for a pluralistic approach to help with stress, relationships or anxiety or seeking expert neurodivergence support, I am here to help you or your child find a meaningful way forward.
A Bespoke, Humanistic Approach to Your Wellbeing
My company was founded with the aim of delivering warm, empathetic individualised counselling for Women and Children (of all genders).
I take a pluralistic and solution-focussed approach to counselling developed through years of practice and lived experience, to create a bespoke, humanistic service which will strive to meet your individual needs and help you achieve your desired goals.
My practice is built on the belief that every person’s journey is unique. Unlike rigid clinical models, I offer my experience and use therapeutic tools to fit your specific goals. Drawing on over 40 years of professional knowledge of disability and care experience, I am able to provide warm, empathetic and compassionate services tailored to the individual needs of women and children (under 18).
Specialist Support for Life’s Challenges
I provide a strictly confidential, safe, inclusive, disability and LGBTQ+ affirming space for all clients, particularly those who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. My expertise is particularly focused on supporting those people navigating: (this is not an exhaustive list)
