Mrs Mhairi Jerga, M.Couns
Therapeutic Counselor
“Many clients come to me feeling overwhelmed and stuck amid big life changes, unsure how to cope. I deeply understand the strain of trying to “start again” while holding everything together on the outside. Through counselling and practical support, I help them make sense of their feelings, feel less alone, and move toward calm and hope. I work with adults and young people navigating visible transitions like relocation, school changes, or parenthood, as well as quieter inner challenges such as menopause, anxiety, or depression. My approach is rooted in empathy, recognising how overwhelming these moments can be and offering a safe, compassionate space for clients to rebuild resilience at their own pace. This understanding comes from both lived experience and professional training, helping clients find steady ground in times of change. ”
