Therapy, CBT, ADHD Coaching in North Lanarkshire

Hi, I’m Ashleigh – a CBT therapist, couples therapist and an ADHD coach. I’m here to help you make sense of life’s challenges and move forward with more clarity, confidence, and connection.

You might have found your way here because things feel stuck, overwhelming, or just off-balance. Maybe you’re dealing with anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, or struggling in your relationships. You might be feeling exhausted by patterns you can’t seem to break—or simply want a space to be heard and understood. Whatever’s brought you here, I offer a calm, supportive place to explore it.

If you’re not sure whether therapy is right for you, a free 10/15-minute call is always a good starting point.

How I work

Individual and couples therapy

I use an integrative approach, which means I draw on a range of therapeutic models—including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)—to tailor the work to your unique needs. Whether you’re looking for practical tools to manage unhelpful thoughts or deeper insight into emotions and past experiences, we’ll find a way of working that feels right for you.

In our sessions, we’ll work together to untangle what’s going on—looking at patterns, thoughts, and behaviours—and build healthier, more sustainable ways to cope and grow.

I also work with couples, helping partners communicate more openly, reconnect emotionally, and move through conflict with greater understanding and empathy. My goal is to support you both in creating the kind of relationship you want.

I have experience in working with adult (18+) clients with a variety of issues including anxiety, panic, OCD, depression, addiction, relationship problems, grief, and low self esteem.

What you can expect

What matters most to me is creating a space where you feel safe, respected, and truly listened to. I bring warmth, empathy, and a down-to-earth approach to my work, while also offering practical support and gentle challenge when needed.

I believe that therapy doesn’t have to be intimidating or full of jargon. It’s simply a place to be real, reflect, and find new ways forward.

If any of this resonates, feel free to get in touch. I’d be happy to answer any questions or arrange an initial session to see if we’re a good fit.

Testimonials

“Before therapy my thoughts were all over the place. Ashleigh helped me untangle them and see things more clearly. I feel more in control now and less overwhelmed”

“Couples counselling with Ashleigh helped us communicate in a way we hadn’t been able to in years. We’re finally listening to each other and actually understanding what’s being said”

“I was referred through my work for grief counselling. I felt truly heard and supported through one of the hardest times of my life. I would recommend Ashleigh.”
