Rosalind Henderson, BACP

Rosalind Henderson is a Pluralistic Counsellor with a postgraduate Master of Science (MSc) in Counselling who brings a thoughtful, creative-led sensibility to therapeutic work. She has experience in the creative industries and enjoys supporting clients who identify with artistic or imaginative ways of living and thinking. Rosalind’s practice pays close attention to how early relationships shape identity and everyday choices, and she helps people untangle patterns that leave them feeling anxious, ashamed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves.

Her work explores how family expectations, cultural values, and inherited responses can push people into emotional states such as fear, anger, self-doubt or a sense of being judged. She supports clients who struggle with attachment anxiety, avoidance, or repeated relationship difficulties, as well as those facing grief, loss, life transitions, mood concerns, addiction or workplace stress. Sessions aim to restore contact with a more authentic sense of self, reduce the weight of resentment or self-blame, and foster practical ways of noticing and responding to emotions.

Rosalind is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and works in line with the BACP Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions. She has completed online-therapy training, holds certification from The Online Therapy Institute, maintains professional liability insurance, and is a member of the Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Disclosure Scotland scheme.

Therapeutic approaches for online connection and change

Rosalind draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationships shape present-day patterns - this approach helps people understand fears of abandonment, avoidant tendencies, and recurring relationship dynamics so they can form more secure connections.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them and identifying personal values to guide meaningful action; ACT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes.

Client-Centered Therapy is another key strand in her work, offering a warm, non-directive space where clients are listened to and supported to find their own solutions and inner resources; this approach suits people seeking validation and clearer self-understanding.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Rosalind works collaboratively with clients to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, adapting the work as insights emerge.

Online therapy with Rosalind is offered by video call, phone session, live chat or text-based messaging, providing practical flexibility for different lifestyles. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access support from where the client is most comfortable.
