Ryan Dawes

Counselor

“I did my counselling/psychotherapy training in person-centred/experiential counselling and psychotherapy at the University of Strathclyde. I have an interest in meditation and a therapeutic interest in the process of complex trauma arising out of routine or prolonged and repeated abuse within a relationship(s).”

About Me

I am a counselor and Accredited Mental Health Social Worker in Glasgow, Scotland. I offer confidential counseling to adults affected by abuse and to people seeking personal development.

Approach

Person-centred/experiential counselling is * a confidential space that can offer safety when things are difficult or impossible to bear * a space to help explore new or unknown aspects of yourself.

I aim to provide or offer * an unconditional acceptance that is safe, warm and respectful of how you are and what you are * a climate conducive to being with your feelings, thoughts or what is important to you through following your lead and trying to understand things from your point of view.
