Shireen Maclennan

I  work full time during the day and in the evenings. Please contact me so I can offer you a slot that fits your needs. 

 My name is Shireen Maclennan. I am a qualified Integrative  Psychotherapist with a Post Grad certificate in Existential Counselling and Psychotherapy and a registered member of  the Â鶹ԭ´´. I work in Cobham surrey offering long and short term therapy both face to face and online from my private practice. 

What can I help with ?

I am a specialist in managing chronic anxiety  and how it shapes and impacts your relationships with others in your life. If you feel sad, perplexed or anxious about the way your relationships work then come and see me. 

 I listen to your life struggles and I work with you to know your underlying fears and how this anxiety emerged.

I have worked with many people to build a narrative of their lives and we explore together why you made certain choices, how they make you feel and what you tell yourself about this.  I encourage my clients to give equal time to both the good and the bad feelings within them. You may not think it but this is a crucial role for humans, after all we cannot be good of if we do not understand bad. So bad feelings are vital for goodness.

I share different scenarios to help you understand why you prefer one way of being over another. This allows you to get to know your own brand of anxiety and what is beneath your choices.

It's hardwork for both of us sometimes but I pledge that you will emerge for counselling with concrete knowledge about yourself. 

My clients leave counselling able to untangle their feelings and clarify their perceptions whilst controlling your anxiety. This is a feeling of self agency which gives you the courage to live the life you want despite uncertainty and limitations .

I work with clients that present in a variety of ways and with symptoms that range from social anxiety, health anxiety , traumatic events in the present and from childhood .  I work from home in Cobham Surrey where I have a private entrance and private space for my clients and parking.

When we start working together I carry out an assessment which shows me how you have been coping and what matters to you and what goals you would like to achieve. I tailor each session to best suit the client in front of me as some may need time to feel comfortable in a new space .

A very warm welcome and thank you for looking at a my profile. My name is Shireen Maclennan. I am a qualified Integrative Psychotherapist with a Post certificate in Existential Counselling and Psychotherapy and a registered member of the Â鶹ԭ´´. 

Cobham is my main practise but if you live or work nearer Guildford then you can book into my practice in Guildford . Here I am offering long and short term therapy both face to face and online. 

As a therapist I have a particular interest in anxiety and stress. I have been trained to work with people who feel distressed by events in their life that are resultant from a relational perspective.

Therapy can offer a deeper understanding of why you feel the way you do and this can help you connect or reconnect with how you want to feel about yourself and re- aligns you with what matters most to you in life.

I work with clients that present in a variety of ways depending on how they are experiencing your distress and how I feel they like to be approached in life. 

The Eaves offers a comfortable and safe space for clients with a reception to welcome you at all times.
