About Me
Hello and a warm welcome to Sally Turner Counselling
If you’re searching for counselling, it’s likely that you’re looking for someone to talk to. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can express yourself freely and explore your inner world with comfort and confidence.
I am an Integrative Counsellor, drawing on a wide range of therapeutic approaches tailored to your unique needs. I work relationally, meaning the connection between us is central to the work we do together—and is one of the most important factors in creating meaningful change.
Together, we will explore the challenges that have brought you to counselling, empowering you on your journey toward improved emotional and mental wellbeing, personal growth, and positive change.
I offer face-to-face counselling in Motherwell, welcoming clients from across North Lanarkshire and beyond. For those who prefer to work remotely or are further afield, I also provide secure online and telephone sessions.
About me
Before training as a counsellor, I worked in careers development and student placements at universities. I really enjoyed the one-to-one work with students, helping them navigate personal and career changes, but the corporate side of the role never felt quite right. I saw how career transitions were tied up with personal challenges, and I wanted to be able to support them in a more meaningful way.
My own experiences, including therapy for anxiety and coming to terms with the loss of my mum, along with a career break to focus on family, led me to counselling. During this time, I completed a Higher Psychology in Psychology and a COSCA Certificate in Counselling Skills. I also undertook a COSCA Certificate in Behaviour Change and a Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy with Glasgow Council on Alcohol, where I worked for almost 2 years, gaining experience supporting people through a wide range of personal challenges.
These experiences have shaped how I work today and reinforced my belief in the importance of offering a compassionate, tailored space for anyone facing life’s challenges.
When I'm not at work, I love going camping with my family, watching and attempting to play golf, photography and playing and listening to music. I love cooking and eating Thai and Malaysian food too.
