Heather Macfarlane
Registered Psychotherapist, Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist
OCD is a complex, overwhelming condition but there are proven techniques to help reset your brain and thought patterns to let go of those compulsions because continuing to give in to them only pulls you deeper down. I can provide and understanding, supportive environment for you to tentatively take the steps to challenging those obsessions and compulsions once and for all.

Jayne LESLEY Allen
Therapist, MIBWRT(AC and Coach, TFT DX, NLP Practioner and Coach, Hypnotherapist
Living with obsessive thoughts or compulsive behaviours can feel exhausting and isolating. OCD isn’t a lack of willpower—it’s a pattern wired into the brain that can be shifted with the right support. In our work together, I draw on neuroscience-based therapies, BWRT®, and practical coaching strategies to help calm intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsions, and create new, healthier pathways in the mind. Alongside this, practices such as mindfulness and energy work can support you in finding greater balance, self-compassion, and peace of mind. Together, we’ll work at both the conscious and subconscious level so you can reclaim a sense of freedom and control in your life.

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.
