Eileen Halliday

Student Member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy)

Just a wee email to thank you for all the help you've given me. When I first came to see you, I was carrying a deep concern - that the trauma from my childhood, especially the difficult relationship I had with my father, might affect how I show up as a parent to my future child. I didn’t want to pass that pain on. From the very beginning, you created a space where I felt completely safe to open up. You listened without judgment, and you truly heard me. You helped me explore my experiences from many different perspectives, often revealing insights I hadn’t considered before. You encouraged me to see the strength in the choices I was making and helped me understand that I didn’t need to feel ashamed of my past or my decisions. You were always there with compassion and empathy—an open ear for all of my concerns. Not once did I feel judged or hesitant to speak. I always knew I could be completely honest with you.Working with you has been one of the best decisions of my life. It has truly changed me. I now feel confident, grounded, and ready. The fears I once carried have lifted. I know, with certainty, that I will be a great dad to my son.Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. With gratitude,

Hello, 'Eileen is the best! She created a comfortable environment where I could talk without worrying about being judged. Very well informed, with some real nuggets of wisdom and good questions that helped to radically change my perspective. I've finished our sessions feeling like I have a much better understanding of myself, and the coping skills I need to manage the obstacles life presents. Thank you!!!' I also just want to thank you again. I'm so glad I came in! All the Best,

Eileen Halliday is currently studying for a Diploma in Counselling at Perth UHI, following her BA in Child & Youth Studies. As a counsellor, she aims to support clients through life’s challenges by providing a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.

With a background in youth work, Eileen understands the complexities of personal development and the impact of past experiences on present behaviours. Her approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and collaboration, empowering clients to explore their emotions and gain deeper self-awareness. She believes that everyone has the capacity for growth and change and works alongside her clients to help them understand their patterns, develop coping strategies, and make meaningful life changes.

Eileen focuses on the individual as a whole, valuing their unique experiences and perspectives. Whether clients are facing anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or other life challenges, her goal is to support them in navigating their journey with compassion and understanding. Counselling offers an opportunity for self-exploration and personal growth, and Eileen is committed to providing a supportive space where clients feel heard, validated, and empowered to create positive change in their lives.

In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her family and taking long walks on cold Scottish beaches with her dogs. She is also a self-taught silversmith and, when time allows, enjoys designing and creating silver jewellery.
