Lulu AlRashdi
Life Coach
From an ex-police officer to a trauma-informed life coach. My journey has been profound. I learned that the greatest gift we can give ourselves is recognizing who we truly are beneath our conditioning, survival patterns, and past experiences.
Many of the struggles we face today are rooted in childhood experiences, unconscious beliefs, and emotional wounds that continue to shape how we think, feel, and relate to the world. My role is to help you gently explore these patterns, understand their origins, and create awareness without judgment.

Georgie Gee
Registered Psychotherapist, Masters in Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy
My philosophy is rooted in the belief that effective therapy creates a safe space where young people can explore their inner world and understand the root causes of their distress. By helping adolescents make meaning of their experiences empowers them to develop a stronger sense of self enabling them to navigate future challenges with greater awareness and confidence.

Liam West
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, Adv Dip MBACP
I’ve been in practise since 2016 and feel very blessed having had the opportunity to help so many people on their healing journey.
My first focus is always in creating a safe space; one of understanding, compassion and openness. Anyone attending therapy needs to feel safe, secure, and seen and understood by their therapist.
Though there’s a lot more that I do in my work with people than above, it’s those foundations - the relationship between therapist and clients - that everything else we do is built from.
You will get 100% from me, as well as a dedication to continual learning and exploring, refining already known approaches, as well as adding in new tools and techniques.
I know therapy can be a nervous thing to first try, but I’m sure in saying that I will put anyone at ease very quickly, and that anyway that sticks with therapy - and feels safe and heard by myself - will experience change that is hard to almost hard to believe until it starts to happen.
I look forward to meeting you

Edinburgh's identity as Scotland's capital and a major university city — home to the University of Edinburgh, one of the world's leading research institutions — creates strong demand for therapists experienced with academic pressure, young adult transitions, and the challenges of a highly competitive intellectual environment. The city's large student population, tourism sector workforce, and growing tech community each generate distinct therapy needs, from performance anxiety and identity exploration to burnout and occupational stress. NHS Lothian provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community concentrated in Stockbridge, Morningside, and the New Town. Edinburgh's annual Festival season brings an influx of creative professionals and associated mental health demands around performance, identity, and the pressures of public artistic life.
