Counsellor in Fife Margaret Wilde
About Me
Hi, I’m Margaret Wilde, a qualified and experienced counsellor with a deep passion for helping people heal and grow. Before I became a counsellor, I worked in mental health and learning disability support for many years. These experiences shaped my understanding of the challenges people face and inspired me to train as a Therapeutic Counsellor.
Since qualifying in 2018, I have focused primarily on trauma recovery, working with individuals navigating the lasting impacts of Complex PTSD and childhood experiences.
I’ve also undertaken specific training to support people affected by boarding school syndrome. As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I adhere to their ethical framework, ensuring a professional and supportive environment for all my clients.
My work is rooted in creating a safe, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where clients can explore their feelings, discover new perspectives, and work towards meaningful change.
My core training is in psychodynamic counselling, and I take a pluralistic approach, which means I tailor our work to your unique needs. Whether you’re looking to understand your past, manage anxiety, or improve your relationship with yourself, I’ll work collaboratively with you to find the best way forward. Additionally, as a trained meditation teacher, I can integrate mindfulness techniques into our sessions for those who find it helpful.
I also hold an Advanced Certificate in Online Counselling, enabling me to provide safe and effective therapy online and by telephone, wherever you’re located.
