Dr Louise Reid

I have worked in adult mental health services for 19 years. I graduated from the University of Dundee with a BSc (Hons) degree in Psychology in 2003 and qualified with a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology in 2009. I have worked in both inpatient and community based teams delivering a range of interventions. Since qualifying, I have trained in several therapeutic models including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT), Behaviour Family Therapy (BFT) and Schema Focussed Therapy. Most of my experience has involved working with individuals who have experienced multiple traumatic events. However, I have also worked with neuro divergence throughout my career and this remains an interest of mine.

Whether you have a diagnosed mental health problem or not, we can all find ourselves feeling overwhelmed, lost and alone. The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of all of my work. My hope is to provide you with a space where you feel safe and heard. We will draw upon psychological theory and principles to understand what is going on for you now and how you may have found yourself here. Ultimately, my goal is to help you to restore connection with your true and authentic self.
