Welcome to Harbour - a free counselling service          

Covid 19

We are following the Scottish Government directive to Stay at Home and Stay Safe, for as long as the lockdown restrictions remain in place.

This means that we cannot envisage a return to face to face counselling in our offices for quite some time. We also know that our clients and counsellors will have practical issues to resolve at work and home before a full service can resume. We accept that some adaptations and a measure of flexibility will be necessary going forward.

We are therefore continuing work with as many existing clients as we can through online/ video (Zoom) or by telephone counselling. If you were already seeing a counsellor and have yet to set this up please get in touch by emailing This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or calling 07398 793919.  We have been trying to contact you. Overall, our clients are responding well to this way of doing counselling and finding it helpful.

For clients already on our waiting list, we hope to see you in the ways outlined above as existing clients finish and we have gaps in the schedule. We are also now offering appointments for assessments using online/ video (Zoom) or by telephone. Please add our office email to your email contacts to make sure our emails offering appointments get through any spam filter and please think about taking up this offer when it comes. We will help you to manage the technology and any initial fears.

If you have had your assessment we hope our "What now?"page will help.

We are sorry that we cannot take any new clients onto our waiting list at the present time. Please look at our crisis resources, stay in touch with your GP and check back regularly for updates. Take care.

Catherine Wallace, practice Manager 13/5/20
