Psychotherapy Counselling in Glasgow

Murray Sharp Therapy ~ Email: msharp.therapy@gmail.com

 I am a Mindfulness Core Process Psychotherapist with additional training in depth trauma work and advanced integrative counselling. Whatever your struggle, I offer a unique compassionate approach to help you that is personal, practical and effective.


When you find yourself encountering a difficulty that you feel unable to resolve on your own my job is to help you find the way through. This could be an external challenging situation or some internal conflict, distress or dissatisfaction. I am experienced helping people work through these difficulties to find their solution or resolution.  


I am trained in Mindfulness Core Process Psychotherapy. This unique approach recognises the inherent wellness at the "core" of our being that gets obscured as we respond to the challenges and wounds of our life. This is a gentle yet potent approach of working with moment-to-moment awareness (mindfulness) to move past the story and blocks that keep us from living more fully as our authentic self. This journey, or "process", can involve working out how to work through conflicts and problems – within yourself or with others – or developing a greater capacity to cope with challenging experiences. 

Who Am I?

Where Do I Work?

I live in Glasgow with my wife and daughter. I have been a practicing counsellor since 2017. Previously I worked as a support worker caring for disabled children and young people. 


As a counsellor I am committed to providing counselling, psychotherapy and stress management/focussed relaxation sessions in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment.  You can find out more about me and the work that I do with people using the link below.

MY TRAINING & QUALIFICATIONS

MY TRAINING & QUALIFICATIONS

I work with adult individuals or couples of all ages, cultures and backgrounds. I provide counselling and psychotherapy sessions that are tailored to you. 


I am experienced helping people who have been struggling with anxiety, relationships, stress, bereavement, depression, panic attacks, trauma (including PTSD and CPTSD), abuse, and more. If you are having a difficulty not mentioned here please feel welcome to ask me about it - I will always be honest and upfront with you about the help I can and cannot offer.


Depending on what you are seeking, sessions can involve a process of supporting you to orient and bring clarity to any concerns or difficulties you are experiencing or help to identify and address the obstacles to achieving a specific goal. Where helpful I can make suggestions depending on what difficulties you are experiencing so you can decide what is the right approach for you. At every stage you will be given choice about how we proceed. 

MY TRAINING & QUALIFICATIONS

MY TRAINING & QUALIFICATIONS

MY TRAINING & QUALIFICATIONS

My counselling training is broad based. I have a Masters in Mindfulness Core Process psychotherapy. This was a four year training in the original Mindfulness approach to psychotherapy in the UK. I have also studied a holistic approach that incorporates many well-known forms of counselling (including skills from CBT and person-centered). This integrative approach allows me to utilise a wide range of practices for a more rounded and effective therapy tailored to you.  


Additionally, I have trained in Stress Management and am able to facilitate focused relaxation exercises and awareness building exercises to help with stress and the development of greater inner resilience and confidence. These can be the focus of sessions or incorporated into ongoing counselling work if appropriate.   


I am an accredited member of UKCP and abide by their code of ethics for professional practice.

Counselling and Psychotherapy - What's the Difference?

Broadly counselling tends to be shorter term work (1-6 sessions) that focuses on a specific issue and psychotherapy is longer term work (6 sessions +) that seeks to address the deeper underlying causes  behind the difficulties we experience. Another difference is that psychotherapy trainings tend to be longer and more in-depth (3-5 years) than most counselling trainings (1-3 years). However, most commonly the words counsellor, psychotherapist and therapist are regularly used to mean the same and I therefore use these terms interchangeably depending on what you prefer or are familiar with. Whatever your reason for seeking an appointment and the type of work you choose - whether one session or many - I work with everyone with the same approach of working towards a greater understanding of your concerns and responding to this with respect and compassion and by giving you choice.

APPOINTMENTs

I am a counsellor in Glasgow working in Cathcart. Predominantly I offer in-person appointments, but I am also able to offer online sessions on occasion when meeting face-to-face is not possible.


All appointments are full 60 minuets. 


Generally I suggest that appointments are weekly or fortnightly according to your preference. Any longer than this and it can be more difficult to maintain momentum and progression from session to session. However, I appreciate there will be times when this may not be possible and a longer break between sessions is unavoidable. 


You are under no obligation to book more than one appointment at a time, neither do I expect you to commit to a certain number of sessions. Taking it one session at a time allows you to decide what is right for you without the pressure of future commitment. 


I currently have appointments available. Please contact me to book or if you have any questions.
