Andrejs Snitka

I am currently accepting new clients for both in-person sessions in Edinburgh and online sessions. Appointment times vary, including some evening availability. Please get in touch to discuss a time that works for us both.

You might be here because you’re coping on the outside, but inside something doesn’t feel quite right.

Maybe you’re tired of holding things together, or you’ve reached a point where pushing through no longer works. You don’t need to have the right words or a clear plan — you just need a solid place to start. I offer a calm, grounded space where you can bring whatever is on your mind, even if it’s hard to put into words.

I work in a person-centred way: I believe that change comes through being truly heard, not judged or analysed. Therapy isn’t about fixing you, it’s about creating the right conditions for something in you to shift, in your own time.

I also draw on psychodynamic and integrative approaches, shaped by years working in care and the arts – both places where I learned how complex people are, and how much strength there can be in slowing down and paying attention.

I often work with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, relationship difficulties, separation and major life transitions. You may be functioning well on the outside while feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure how to move forward. Together, we can slow things down, understand what is keeping you stuck, and begin finding a way forward that feels like your own.

I offer both short-term and long-term counselling for adults, in person in Edinburgh and online. I work independently from rooms at Physis Scotland, a well-established therapeutic space in the heart of Edinburgh.

Sessions are confidential and usually last 50 minutes. We can work for a defined period or on a longer-term basis, depending on what brings you to therapy and what feels useful to you.

My work is collaborative rather than prescriptive. We can explore what is happening at your own pace, while also working actively and practically when this feels helpful. There is no expectation that you arrive knowing exactly what you want to change — figuring that out can be part of the work.

Feel free to get in touch by email to arrange an initial meeting, either in person or online. The first session is a chance for us to get to know each other, talk about what has brought you to therapy, and get a sense of what you might need from our work together.

There is no pressure to tell me everything straight away or to arrive with a clear idea of what you want to work on. We can take things at your pace and see whether working together feels like a good fit.

The fee for the first consultation is £30.
