Person-centred support for life’s challenges
Start with Colette HutchisonLicensed · Professional · Cancel Anytime
Colette Hutchison offers warm, person-centred counselling and support to people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem concerns, family and intimacy-related issues, parenting challenges, career questions, depression, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue.
She aims to create a therapeutic relationship in which people feel heard, valued, and accepted. Working from a person-centred perspective, Colette stays present with each individual as they explore their thoughts and feelings and identify the solutions that work best for them, providing a non-judgemental space for reflection and growth.
Colette holds an MSc in Counselling & Psychotherapy and a BSc in Psychology & Counselling from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. She also has additional certification in listening skills from COSCA and suicide intervention training from Public Health Scotland.
Her practical experience includes serving as a student counsellor at the University of Glasgow, delivering online counselling through the Crisis Counselling charity in Scotland, and providing listening support to staff and family members at Glasgow Royal Infirmary during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Colette is a female, non-religious therapist with a liberal outlook. Due to other commitments she does not currently offer sessions on evenings or weekends; her working hours on BetterHelp are Tuesday to Thursday 10am - 5pm and Friday 10am - 2pm (BST).
For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been found to be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. It can be a practical option for people seeking support for these issues.
One of the main benefits is flexibility. People can choose the communication method that best suits them - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - making it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine or to access help from a convenient location.
Licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if someone feels they need a different fit they can switch therapists at any time. For many, remote therapy provides meaningful progress and a way to maintain continuity of care while balancing other commitments.
