Life in Falkirk
Why people in Falkirk reach out
Falkirk sits between Glasgow and Edinburgh, shaped by its canals, the petrochemical works at Grangemouth and the uncertainty hanging over that industry. Insecure work, the central-belt commute and worries about the future of major local employers all shape the pressures people carry.
Where the old industries have gone and there is a strong culture of just getting on with things, online keeps support discreet and within reach however stretched the week.
Falkirk sits within NHS Forth Valley (served by Forth Valley Royal Hospital in nearby Larbert) and is dominated by the Grangemouth petrochemical complex, one of Scotland's largest industrial sites.
The trauma counselling itself
Trauma counselling here is gentle and led by you, drawing on methods designed for trauma including the Human Givens Rewind Technique, so a difficult memory is returned to ordinary recall.
The approach is the same wherever you live, so rather than repeat it on every page you can read it in full — the methods, what each session covers and fees — on the main trauma counselling page and on how I work.
How online sessions work
Sessions run over a secure, encrypted video link held to the same strict BACP confidentiality as meeting in person. After a free fifteen-minute call to check we are a good fit, you join each session from any private space using a phone, tablet or laptop — no software to install, no waiting room and no journey at either end.

Falkirk questions
Online Trauma Counselling in Falkirk: common questions
Can I get online trauma counselling if I live in Falkirk?
Yes. I work with people right across Falkirk, from the town centre and the Steeple outwards, and anywhere else in Scotland, by secure video — no need to travel to Hove, and just as confidential as meeting in the room.
Do I have to describe what happened in detail?
No. Methods like the Human Givens Rewind let us process a memory without you reliving it or even speaking the detail aloud.
Is it safe to do trauma work online?
Yes, when it is paced carefully. We go slowly, keep you grounded, and you stay in control of what we approach and when.
What if I get overwhelmed during a session?
We build in ways to settle and pause, and never move faster than feels safe. Being in your own space online can make that easier.
