I am sorry but I am at full capacity just now. I will remove this notice when I able once more to accept new clients.
Best regards, Gill Burns.
Hello and welcome to my website. I’m Gill and I am based in Livingston, West Lothian. I offer online and telephone Counselling and Mindfulness to people from all over the UK.
As a person-centred counsellor, I will offer you a safe confidential, non-judgemental space for you to explore what is troubling you. Individuals come to me with various difficulties and have included, but not limited to, stress, anxiety, depression, workplace bullying, relationship difficulties, menopausal difficulties, grief and loss, and health anxiety.
I offer a free 15 min call to determine how we can best work together to help you move forward through whatever is troubling you.
I have provided emotional support and wellbeing programmes for charitable organisations within West Lothian for 14 years. I was introduced to Mindfulness in 2012 after a period of ill health when I was forced to look at how I managed my own stress and emotional wellbeing. Learning how to be more Mindful in my life had a positive therapeutic impact and I wanted to share that with others. I decided to train as a Mindfulness tutor with the Mindfulness Association. After delivering Mindfulness courses for a few years, it felt like a natural progression to formalise much of what I was already doing and train to become a counsellor. I trained at the University of Strathclyde part time alongside work commitments and graduated in 2018. Since then I have worked as a staff counsellor in the NHS and a large university in addition to having a small private practice. I am a registered member of BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy) and apply their ethical framework in my work.
