Services designed to help you navigate life’s challenges
I believe no one should face life’s hurdles alone. My tailored services—from counselling to coaching—offer a safe, supportive space to explore, heal, and grow at your own pace.
All services are available both in-person (North East Scotland) and online, so you can get the support you need—wherever you are.
Counselling
Safe, supportive space for emotional exploration.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, grief, low mood, overwhelm, or just feel a little lost, counselling offers a calm and non-judgmental space to explore what’s going on beneath the surface. Together, we’ll unpack thoughts and emotions at your pace, in a way that helps you feel seen, supported, and gently empowered to move forward.
Hypnotherapy & NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming)
Uncover patterns and create lasting change.
Sometimes we carry unconscious beliefs or behaviours that hold us back. Hypnotherapy and NLP work on a deeper level to gently reframe these patterns and open up space for clarity, healing, and change. These techniques are especially helpful for anxiety, phobias, self-esteem, and confidence issues.
EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques)
Release emotional tension and restore balance.
EFT combines gentle physical tapping on pressure points with spoken affirmations to help reduce stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. It’s a simple yet powerful tool to calm the nervous system and shift how we feel in our body, often bringing immediate relief and clarity.
Life Coaching
Clarity, direction, and support to move forward.
Coaching sessions are ideal if you’re looking to set goals, gain confidence, or navigate a new chapter in life. With a blend of empathy and action, we’ll clarify where you are, where you want to go, and how to get there—step by step, without the overwhelm.
“I couldn’t recommend Graham enough, his friendly, honest approach really put my daughter at ease. After the initial consultation she was left feeling very confident that Graham’s approach to her severe phobia (wasps) would give her a much better quality of life. Only regret is that we didn’t learn about Brave Journey’s earlier!”
Client
“I would highly recommend Brave Journeys. I met Graham at a time when, for various reasons, I felt incredibly lost, worthless and without purpose. Through conversation and techniques Graham has helped me work on what I want and who I am. Graham is a genuine and kind therapist, who is very comfortable to be with. 10 minutes of hypnotherapy makes me feel like I’ve had a day at a spa!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Feeling unsure about what to expect? Here are the answers to the most common questions so you can move forward with confidence. If yours isn’t listed, just reach out and I’ll be happy to help.
I work with children, young people, adults and families from all walks of life. You don’t need to have a “big reason” if something feels heavy, confusing or just too much, that’s enough
That’s totally okay. You don’t need to have the right words or know what to say. Our first session is about gently getting to know each other. We go at your pace, and nothing is off-limit
Yes. I offer in-person, online and telephone sessions, so we can find what works best for you and your life. I also do Walk and Talk.
Sessions usually last 50 minutes. Some people come weekly, others less often we’ll figure out a session plan that feels right for you.
You can book a free 15-minute call to talk things through. There’s no pressure just a chance to see if it feels like a good fit.
Fees are normally £40 per session however for children and young people there is a 25% discount. There can sometimes be a milage surcharge and a small fee if I have to hire an office space. I’ll always be upfront and transparent, however if cost is a barrier, let’s talk about options.
Yes. Everything you share is confidential, unless there’s a serious risk of harm to you or someone else. I’ll explain this clearly at the start so you feel safe and informed.
