Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a fully qualified counsellor living and practising in the Scottish Borders, UK. My early studies in counselling and psychotherapy were integrative, combining person-centred and psychodynamic approaches. I completed my professional training on a psychodynamic course that focused on human relations and the connections we form with others, starting at birth and extending throughout our lifetimes.
My way of being and working with clients blends different aspects of my training: acceptance, empathy and openness encourage growth and self-healing; an awareness of our interactions shed light on past and present relationships. Nature and our place in the environment have always been deeply important to me, and I am happy to consider outdoor and walking therapy. I also have a long-standing interest in existentialism, believing that we all have the capacity to create meaning and find peace within ourselves, no matter how chaotic or painful life is.
Over the past five years, I have built up hundreds of hours in practice with clients of all ages and backgrounds, helping them come to terms with issues such as trauma, abuse, bereavement, relationship breakdown, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, isolation, body dysmorphia, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and sexual identity.

Sean Trevarthen is a fully qualified counsellor living and practising in the Scottish Borders, United Kingdom. His initial studies were integrative, combining person-centred and psychodynamic approaches, and he completed professional training on a psychodynamic course that emphasised human relations and the connections people form with others from birth throughout their lives.
His therapeutic stance draws together elements of that training – acceptance, empathy and openness are used to support growth and self-healing while an awareness of interpersonal patterns helps illuminate past and present relationships. Nature and the wider environment are important to him, and he is happy to consider outdoor and walking therapy as part of the work.
Sean also has a long-standing interest in existentialism and holds the view that people have the capacity to create meaning and to find a measure of peace within themselves even when life feels chaotic or painful.
Over the past five years he has accumulated hundreds of hours in practice, working with clients of all ages and backgrounds to address issues such as trauma and abuse, bereavement, relationship breakdown, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, isolation, body dysmorphia, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and questions of sexual identity.
For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and life transitions – remote therapy can be as effective as traditional in-person sessions. Research and practice indicate that these types of issues often respond well to online treatment, making it a viable option for many people.
One major advantage of online work is flexibility. People can choose the mode of contact that suits them best – video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging – which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care when circumstances change.
All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and if someone feels they need a different style or approach it is possible to switch to another therapist at any time. This combination of accessibility and professional standards makes online therapy a practical choice for many seeking support.
