Ian Innes Counselling

Dave G wrote, "I am deeply grateful for the time I've spent with Ian. He has listened with patience and compassion as I shared my darkest struggles, and he helped me view them from a completely new perspective. His approach strikes the perfect balance - kind and supportive, yet also direct and honest, which was exactly what I needed.
Ian has given me invaluable advice on facing my inner demons, particularly in overcoming addiction. The breathing techniques he taught me have become part of my daily routine and a powerful tool in my recovery. Thanks to his guidance, I've been able to confront difficult times head-on and continue moving forward on my spiritual journey.
I'm now almost five months clean from my drug of choice, and my quality of life has improved beyond what I thought possible. Ian's support, wisdom, and genuine interest in my growth have been a crucial part of that transformation. I cannot recommend him highly enough, especially to anyone who may be in a dark place as I once was."

S.P. wrote, "I began working with Ian during a particularly difficult spell of anxiety, which has come in waves throughout my life. From the very start, I felt truly listened to and never judged. Ian created a safe space where I could share openly, something that usually takes me a long time to feel comfortable doing. His kindness, patience, and understanding made it much easier to trust the process.
I now feel much more in control of my life. My anxiety is far better managed through mechanisms that I felt tailored for me - not just a "one size fits all" approach, which is something I really admired about Ian's sessions. I would absolutely recommend Ian to anybody who is considering counselling. Thank you so much Ian for your support!"

7 years ago today since I fully qualified as a counsellor and started my own practice!

Still thoroughly enjoying every day at work and looking forward to the future in my office in Banff and with Seafield and Cullen Medical Group in Buckie.

"It took a lot to book that first appointment, but I needn't have worried so much.

Ian's gentle nature instantly put me at ease and I was able to be fully open and honest in a safe space. There was no judgement, I only felt supported and validated.

I would recommend Ian's services to anyone struggling. He has fully helped me turn my thoughts around and process previous events."

E.D. wrote "I came from and was brought up by the generation that said “you just have to get on with it “,
but at 54 and after a traumatic family loss l really struggled to cope with every day life , and felt anxious all the time.
l was in a really dark place to the point l contemplated taking my own life
A family member and a friend realised how low l had reached and through my doctor, Ian was recommended to me .
From my first couple sessions l felt that a crushing weight had been lifted and the techniques Ian has shown me have helped me cope with feelings l had and how to work through them
Before my counselling l felt that l could be surrounded by people but feel so alone but now l realise that even if l have low days ,there is always help out there
I cannot thank Ian enough for helping me process my feelings and l truly believe without his guidance and help l wouldn’t be here today".

Ash wrote "I could not recommend Ian enough! After going through a difficult period in my life, I reached out to Ian for some help. Ian gave me the help I was looking for, not by giving me the answers, but by providing me the tools needed for me to find the answers myself, which to this day I continue to use.

Ian listened to what was the biggest issues I had in each session and we explored ways to overcome them. Each session never felt rushed and i always felt welcomed.

The best decision I ever made was to get in contact with Ian. I would not be where I am today without his support."

Shaun writes, "Was a bit sceptical about counselling to begin with but needed to get out of a hole I was in so contacted Ian and it has really changed my thinking and outlook on life. Ian is brilliant at what he does, so easy to talk to and his advice and guidance has really helped with my life. Would highly recommend Ian but would also recommend counselling to anybody needing help 10/10"
