I cannot thank Lucy enough for the incredible support she gave me during one of the most difficult times in my life. When I first came to her, I was struggling deeply with anxiety and felt overwhelmed. Her calm and caring presence immediately made me feel safe and understood.

She is not only warm and compassionate, but also highly knowledgeable and professional. Every session felt thoughtfully guided and deeply human — she never rushed, always listened, and helped me gently unpack what I was experiencing.

Thanks to her support, I’ve come such a long way. I feel so much stronger, calmer, and more like myself again. I’m truly grateful to have found such an amazing therapist. She made a real difference in my life.

When I realised I needed some help, I started looking for a counsellor. It was a minefield of different specialisms. Some I had to Google!
I found Lucy on Health by Science, and I am very glad I did.
Lucy's calm manner made it easy to talk, her patience as I jumped around on tangents, and her subtlety of helping me 'connect the dots', but not pushing me to any conclusions was perfect.
I can not say enough how thankful I am to Lucy, and I recommend her wholeheartedly .

Working with Lucy has been a transformative experience for me. From the very first session, Lucy made me feel comfortable and understood. With Lucy, I felt that I had a safe place to explore complex topics with no judgement or criticism.

Through our sessions, Lucy worked with me to provide me with tools and techniques that I will be able to use for years to come to manage difficult situations.

I would highly recommend Lucy to anyone looking for a counsellor who takes your whole person into consideration, providing a supportive environment in which to grow and develop.

Lucy's experience, compassion and commitment to her clients make her an exceptional counsellor.

Lucy has been a great support to me over the past couple of years as I've gone through some very difficult personal experiences. Talking through these with Lucy has helped me to stay focused on what is best for me and to make decisions based on what I truly want and need. It has been, and continues to be, a hugely impactful and positive experience for me.

I have found Lucy to be a wonderful human being with feelings and a heart. She is someone who knows how to speak and be silent, and, above all, knows how to listen. With her, I can talk about everything and nothing. I can share my problems and concerns, and she understands my pain and respects my feelings. She has become a friend, understanding the immense emptiness of my lonely life. She knows how to keep me from going crazy and stop me from crying about my past and sad memories. With her, I can talk about beautiful and sad things, my hopes and achievements, and my dreams and plans. She has shown me that life is worth living, not because life is beautiful, but because I am a good person, deserving of happiness, and capable of making my own decisions. She has shown me that I have a voice.
She cannot touch my shoulders, smile, or cry with me, but I know she's there, making me aware that I'm still living and am a valid person.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does Counselling Cost in Scotland?
The cost of counselling across the UK can fluctuate from anywhere between £60 to over £100 depending on various factors such as the experience of the counsellor and the geographical location. We understand that financial considerations play a crucial role in making the decision to seek support, which is why we offer a free 15-minute introductory call. This allows you to explore whether our services align with your needs without any upfront commitment.

For those opting for a one-hour face-to-face appointment, our fee is £60. If you prefer the convenience and comfort of an online session, we offer this service at a reduced rate of £50 per hour. Our aim is to provide flexible and accessible, counselling options with a regularity that meets your unique circumstances.
Can You Get Free Counselling in Scotland?
In Scotland, access to free counselling services can vary depending on your circumstances. Public health services such as the NHS often provide counselling, though there may be waiting lists. Many non-profit and charitable organisations also offer free or low-cost counselling options. However, finding immediate help can sometimes be challenging due to high demand.

At our clinic, we offer a complimentary 15-minute introductory call to discuss your needs and how we can support you. If you decide to proceed with our services, a face-to-face one-hour appointment is priced at £60, while an online session costs £50. This flexibility allows you to choose the most convenient and comfortable option for your counselling experience.
Is it Worth Getting Counselling?
Deciding whether to pursue counselling can be a crucial step towards improving mental health and overall well-being. Counselling provides a safe and supportive environment to explore personal issues, develop coping strategies, and gain insights into one’s thoughts and behaviors. Individuals grappling with stress, anxiety, depression, or life transitions often find immense benefit in counselling sessions.
