Ian Catterall

I am flexible in terms of when I can offer therapy.

I can work days and evengings as well as weekends. 

Sessions would generally be weekly but the frequency can be different if required.

A Bit About Me:

I am 50 years of age and married with 2 daughters at university. I live in Ayr.

After having overcome some confusing and difficult times myself in terms of depression and anxiety I decided I needed to rethink what was important to me.

That has led me to learn more about Buddhist theory, mindfulness and meditation. I continue to work in social work which is important to me - I think such services are essential and help people who face profound day to day difficulties.

I decided to train as a counsellor to offer a more direct way of helping people. As cliched as it may sound I do learn something about my practice, myself and other people from every client I work with and really enjoy working as a counsellor. 

During the current pandemic I am working online and by telephone. I am comfortable and confident doing this.  I will work via text, phone or zoom. 

I am a person centred therapist who is comfortable working with a wide variety of issues. I am also experienced in developing and helping in terms of meditation, mindfulness and other Buddhist concepts. 

I offer an initial session to talk with you and see if we feel we can work together.  This will be free.  

Contact me and we can arrange to do this either by phone or zoom depending on your preference.
