About Aileen Ferguson

As a accredited counsellor and hypnotherapist, I am particularly interested in stress and anxiety, relationship and work related problems and anything to do with being an only child. I have completed specialised training in working with clients suffering from trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

  • What experience do I have in Counselling?
    I work with individuals and couples who have been referred by GPs, concerned members of the family, or who have recognised their own need to see a counsellor. I have worked in voluntary organisations, GPs practice and as part of an employee assistance programme. I have experience in long and short term work with clients. I prefer to work with clients on a face to face basis although I am experienced in telephone counselling.

  • My qualifications include:
    Certificate in Person-Centred Supervision (PCT Britain)
    PG Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling (University of Strathclyde)
    Diploma in Clinical & Advanced Hypnotherapy
    Certificate in Brief Work for Person-Centred Therapists
    Certificate in Online Counselling

  • Professional Memberships:
    British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP Accred)
    National Council for Hypnotherapy (NCH)
    Person Centred Therapy (PCT Scotland)
    Scottish Massage Therapists Organisation (SMTO)
    Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (FCIPD)

    Membership of professional organisations ensures knowledge and skills are up to date by meeting requirements for continuing professional development. Clients can feel reassured by the strict requirements for ethical practice, safety and insurance.
